How long can you hold a date/time?

Generally you made hold a date/time as long as necessary, but while holding you will be susceptible to a challenge. If
someone challenges your hold then you will have 2 business hours to confirm or release, and you will have to at least
match the cost of the challenger's potential screening.

Foreground Colors:
Yellow - Soft Hold
Orange - Hold

What is a challenge? How does a challenge work?

A hold may be challenged if you are ready to book. If you would like to Challenge, then we will need a credit card form
filled out and sent back to us to guarantee payment. We would then give the people holding that time 2 business hours to
confirm or release. If they confirm, it is theirs and no charge to you. If they release, we will charge your credit card and it
is yours. There is no backing out of a Challenge, once we issue the challenge


What is your cancellation policy?

Payment is due once a screening is booked, and there are no refunds. At our discretion we frequently offer a morning
credit toward a future screening for any Cancellations that are not last minute, but there is no guarantee that we will offer
a morning credit. Morning credits are for screenings that finish before Noon, and cannot be used during Academy
