UPDATE: You can also save on your tickets to see Logan by picking up one of these select Wolverine or X-Men movies on Blu-ray disc or DVD at Best Buy. Once you purchase, you’ll receive up to $7.50 off movie credit. Assuming you’ll use the full credit at the theaters, it’s like getting the Blu-ray/DVD for free.

Going to see Logan this weekend with a friend? No? You should, it looks really good. Well, if you decide to go and then buy your tickets at Atom you’ll get $5 off your order of both tickets. That’s money you can use towards a small drink at the theater (heh).

Just go to Atom, find your theater and get two tickets. You will see the discount at checkout. Enjoy the show!
