This is regrettable, but understandable. If one ever wanted to go and watch a film in peace, then Wednesday afternoon would be a good choice. I would like to think, however, that on school holidays, the cinema would get busier during the day.

Putting my 'favoured' negative hat back on, I do fear for the long term sustainability of the cinema and it becoming a tax payer's liability.

Given the subject matter of the film I'm not surprised. I think they've missed an S and an H out of the title.

There is that of course. A cinema will be only as busy as the quality of the film on view.

TR - Please ignore user23 - his sole purpose in life is to pour scorn on people whose tastes or opinions are different from his. We are used to him - you probably won't be.

Glad you enjoyed the film.

I see the 'Orange Wednesdays' two for one cinema ticket offer is valid at the Newbury Vue. Maybe you only paid for one ticket?

Ignore me because I have a different opinion on the film than someone else?

Seems a bit daft that, forums are all about different opinions.

Seeing as you seem to have a literal turn of mind, I'd better spell it out then. I should have said "ignore user23's scornful comments".

You are perfectly entitled to your own opinions, as is everybody else. The difference is that you tend to mock others whose opinions or tastes differ from yours.

Back to the OP: did you take the opportunity to sneak into the "luxurious VIP seats" when no-one was looking? smile.gif

The Paul Gadd point suggested the opinion of MJ goes beyond simply liking something or not!

Having now visited the cinema, late yesterday afternoon, I would prefer if they had staff informing people what is being queued for as we nearly missed the start of our choice of film by not knowing (as with some others) that the long line of people standing at the internal entrance for ALL screens was for Twilight only. Also would prefer seperate paying points for films and food etc.

Apart from that I was as impressed as I'd expected to be, i.e. very.

Do you think, after the initial novelty has worn off, that the cinema will be able to maitain enough custom to survive?

I don't know.

Only time will tell.

I hope so.

If you want a screemer any time soon, visit the cinema when 'Paranormal Activity' comes out (wednesday), supposed to be very scary and the scariest so far for a long time! Made simular to Cloverfield with the camera.

I think this film is also supposed to be a true story, not sure. Check the trailer out if you're interested.

Comes out on Wednesday and i will be there! But probably going to be packed so book your tickets quick!

EDIT: Book your tickets for Harry Brown too, very good!!!

It's 'The Forth Kind' that's based on true stories.

According to TV adverts this film will stop your heart - so I will be avoiding it as a danger to my health. wink.gif
