So many Marvel fans tried to snag their tickets for Avengers: Doomsday after watching the VisionQuest season finale that they literally crashed the AMC Theatres app. At least, that's what users are saying.

The crash reportedly occurred on the night of November 10 — the same night that the VisionQuest finale aired, which included a post-credits scene that all but confirmed a particular character will show up in Avengers: Doomsday.

Shortly after the episode aired on Disney+, fans and Marvel fanpages shared that the AMC app was showing an error message when they tried to use it, which asked them to “please try again.” They were unable to navigate to other pages within the app; it seems that it was totally unusable during this time.

Of course, viewers instantly pointed to the VisionQuest season finale as the reason for this, indicating that the hype levels were high enough to warrant a mass of fan interest in seeing Doomsday in theaters.

In a statement to IGN, an AMC Theatres spokesperson revealed that there was a 30-minute period where "some transactions were taking longer than normal." The spokesperson said that the AMC app didn't outright crash, as data showed that tickets continued to get sold throughout this period, but indicated that some users may have run into that error message during that time.

It’s no surprise that Marvel fans got so excited about Doomsday after this. The finale’s post-credits scene, which was also kept a secret from the media, showed Wanda Maximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch, having an interaction with Doctor Doom.
