Is it worth skipping lunch? The preview trailer was like a computer game, but hey I am still going to see it to see what the hype is about. I wouldn't p*y for it though...

I never have and never will subscribe to sky as they are so unfairly priced, poor service and big bullies. I see what they have done to my poor friends and besides I hate them for stealing my beloved summer cricket test matches :(

Anyway, I already booked my tickets (pa*d, not preview) for a 2D showing! If I like the film enough, I'll go see it again at the Imax in 3d :) Incredibly, all evening shows are fully booked until early January at the London IMAX. I wasnt terribly impressed with the 20 minute preview and unfortunately, the story is much too similar to the recent CGI animated film, Battle for Terra. But it is James Cameron so I'll have faith!

Do you have a VR headset? If so, maybe we can play a physical sports game or even be sports/fitness partners, hit me up if you keen.

Really?! How unfair to the Sky subscribers! I'll register now for future offers to really rub in the point of how loyal they are to their p*ying customers :evil:

Thanks for the tip though, Beate ;)

Oooh you are all v.lucky! Didn't manage to get any. I had a problem logging on to the forum in the morning at about 10am and I didn't get a chance to take a look until the end of the day.

5.30pm is a bit early but I would have made it! Hope some more come out on SFF.
