My only gripes are that most of the screenings (at least so far, I've only been doing this a week or two) seem to be at 6.30 on the same days of the week - always the days when I work until 6 and can't make it to my nearest cinema in time! Grr.


And as for empty seats - I'm less bothered by this than I am about the teenagers who mess around during the film, most of which come in late - does the cinema sell extra tickets when they realise the screen is half empty? I noticed at the screening of Inglorious Basterds last week the screening was actually on the list of film times at the desk, with NDA written next to it.

hey guys heres another site to get free screening that you might not know about http://www.creditcrunchcinema.com/

i wish screening was at 7pm rather than 6.30 which can be a real push for me to get to straight after work.

Last week was for me, went to see Up and Love Happens, then I wanted to p*y and see Invention of Lying, but my sister said it was too much to go three times in 1 week!!! (we usually go to the cinema together as we like the same films) :cry:
