At Cineworld Enfield, I've never seen a queue this long. It goes out the building, and this place has one of the bigger foyers.

Film is in 3d also... hmm

Wandsworth was oversubscibed and got turned away. There was no security or Id checking, just a promotional guy who seems to coincidantly have a paper which says "if oversubscribed contact us on this e-mail" :angry: and then he kept shouting I don't work for sky or the cinema. The worst part is I could have been at the heartless screening and eating canapés right now. :wall: :wall: :wall:

Bad luck, mate. I never even made my screening. Huge traffic jams then arrived at wrong cinema! What a ninny! Lol. Am just hoping maybe it was oversubscribed anyway. Might make me feel a little better.

Manager kindly gave us vouchers after there was an argument and it wasn't just a few but almost 15 people there standing with printouts. Promotion guy didn't have enough 3d glasses for those who managed to get seats and they had to go and b*y it from the counter.

How boring was that!!!!
They only thing that entertained me tonight was my pair of 3D ->2D glasses!
Thanks for the idea MrG o/

And i saw (very) briefly ejwrank and David at the bus stop; they did not seem convinced either :mrgreen:

6/10 for me, I gave it an extra 0.5 because it was NOT in 3D for me
:mrgreen:

I think that the screening from sky tonighht was done poorly overall at ashton as one cineworld member of staff was saying one thing and the sky rep was saying another we all had to que in a very long line while the sky rep was trying to give out 3d glasses (didnt have to p*y) after they finally let us in to the cinema at arround 6:15 which in my eyes was to late as i had been waiting around there for a good 20 minutes after we got in there there was no free popcorn or anything like the virgin screening and i didnt really get the film it was to complicated and the 3d wasnt brilliant overall it was poorly organised by sky and cineworld and wasnt a great film for me

overall

Sky 3/10
Film 5/10
