Did Sky not offer parking validation last night?

I think they only offer parking validation at the O2.

OK so what an amazing movie! I was so impressed by it! Thanks for all the help getting tickets! It was amazing! Saw one of the twists but not the end one which just made me so so happy! Fantastic! May have to go see it again on the weekend mind as really want to see it again! Sad isn't it lol!

regarding the ending ...

[spoiler]it would have been much better if they showed alfred sitting at the coffee shop, and suddenly he sees someone and smiles. there was no need to show bruce wayne at all - would have been a better ending i think, as you pretty much already know he's alive but it leaves that element of doubt and leaves it open to interpretation. i was hoping for an ending like that, similar to how nolan ended inception with the spinning top.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]I'm looking forward to seeing this again in (proper) IMAX, if anything just to rewatch that infernal cafe scene. I'd like to verify that it isn't identical to the earlier flashback in the sense of clothing, people in the background and overall movements. If it's all the same, I'll have definitive proof that he's fabricated it. I doubt it though...for now I've accepted that we shouldn't be reading anything special into it.

BTW What's the deal with that shooter he downs before he spots them. Did I miss the symbolism of that?[/spoiler]

Not sure, but Alfred mentions what he orders, maybe it was something different to notify us that its reality or not? :/

he definitely ordered the same thing in the same glass; I'll let you investigate and look for clothing details Jay, I will certainly not go watch it again just for that!

Haha! I was going to watch this on Saturday at some Godforsaken hour during the early morning but after getting the Sky tickets, I moved my BFI reservations to late August (no refunds). So will let you know then :cool: Watch this space.

Are you watching?

WOW thats what i call a Summer Blockbuster. Went and saw this at Southampton Odeon Imax which is a first for me. Had our ID checked three times glad we took our passports. The film was fantastic,the start was like a James Bond film and yes after that it did go abit slow for a short while but then non stop action with a great twist at the end.The time flew 165mins and i could have done with more,i didnt want it to end. o/ o/
