Were you one of those who walked out at the beginning? You will have walked right in front of me as I was sat on the front row next to the exit.
If you had stayed, the goodie bag held:-

1 pkt Snack a Jacks 25g berry flavour
1 pkt Kleenex tissues 7 pack
1 blue pen - bic clone
1 tub Nivea Creme 10ml (small)
1 sachet Nivea visage DNAge 1.5ml (yes 1.5 not 15)
1 sachet Nivea My Silhouette gel-cream 4ml
The bag itself is a cloth bag and feels quite strong, might actually be useful if the handles were shorter, by a lot.

in harrow it was sex and the city, not my favourite film, but the other half liked it more than me. Nice little goodie bag though

in Basingstoke it was Sex and the City- the only film I did not really want to see, however I really enjoyed it- until the film packed up about 3/4 of the way through and everyone left- not such a good advert for VW (or VUE)

Reading was MAMMA MIA...One of the 2 movies I did not want to see, the other being SATC.... picked up my goody bag which was strong and nice (contents though were rubbish) and left 10 mts into the movie after the first song...unfortunately 12 other ppl beat us to the exit..

Actually chatted up with the Polo sponsors folks and asked them if ANY venue in the UK had screened Love actually or Grease and they enigmatically smiled...hmm...

York Vue had Sex and The City which I'd never seen and found quite amusing if a little too long for my liking!

The local VW dealers who were trying to create interest in the car they'd brought claimed not to know in advance what the film would be but gave out the goody bags as we arrived at the cinema. The contents were very small and disappointingly inappropriate for me, but the bag will probably come in very handy.
I once went hiking with M. C. Escher. It was uphill all the way there and uphill all the way back.

I went to the screening in Cardiff last thursday evening and we saw Love Actually o/

I had actually voted for Top Gun (having been too young to see it in the cinema when it was first out - i thought it would be cool!). But I love Love Actually so i was pleased. :D

Goody bag contents were ok, although as someone said earlier...bag handles were waaaaaay to long :roll:
