To celebrate the big occasion, the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas announced via its Facebook page that they'd be offering a women-only showing of the highly-anticipated film.
In fact, the theater added a second women-only screening because the initial event sold out so quickly. They're now both sold out.
"Apologies, gentlemen," the theater said on its website, "but we’re embracing our girl power and saying 'No Guys Allowed' for one special night."
The Alamo offered additional details via its website about the women-centered events, saying, "And when we say 'Women (and People Who Identify As Women) Only,' we mean it. Everyone working at this screening — venue staff, projectionist, and culinary team — will be female."

Following the announcement, some men were upset about being excluded, but the Alamo's Facebook account said the event has "zip to do with equality."
"Apparently 'equality' is only selective nowadays," a man who opposed the event wrote.
