Movie tickets for Avengers: Endgame with Chinese subs refundable, says Megaworld

Customers can get refund of movie tickets for Avengers: Endgame special screenings with Chinese subtitles, Megaworld Lifestyle Malls announced on Monday.

"To our valued moviegoers who have already booked their tickets but prefer watching the film without subtitles, you may refund your tickets at the ticketing booths where the booking or purchase was made starting today," the company said in a statement.

It added that the special screening of the much-awaited Marvel movie was made to "promote cultural diversity" and allow the audience who are not English-speaking to appreciate the movie better.

"In recent years, we have noticed a strong demand from moviegoers coming from other countries, particularly those from China," it said. "We have decided to make out cinemas accessible to foreign-speaking moviegoers by including subtitles in select screenings of the biggest movie of the year."

The establishment further said that in recent years, many award-winning Filipino films have also been screened in Philippine cinemas with English subtitles.

Megaworld recently announced that it offers special screenings of the Endgame with Chinese subtitles in Newport Cinemas, Lucky Chinatown Cinemas, Southwoods Cinemas, Eastwood Cinemas, and Venice Cineplex from April 24 to 28, 2019.

Some customers complained that they were not informed about the subtitles when they bought their tickets and that it would ruin their viewing experience. — BAP, GMA News
