Does anyone know how the SFF tickets work for this screening as the timing says they're all Subject to availability... I phoned up my Showcase cinema today and they said they've not even been briefed about any free screenings for next week and they told me that there are not free screenings next week...

I thought the 'subject to availability' was the SFF code itself. Like other SFF codes.

I can't imagine any of the screens being packed out with p*ying customers, if any.

There be an allocation of free tickets for pa*d screenings. All depends on what percentage the cinema chain decides.

Neither can I. Though it might have a cult following.

It's based off of a novel, which I started once about a year ago and then got caught up in uni and didn't finish before I moved. It was starting out pretty well though. If done right it might be okay. Could have sworn I was hearing casting news in the trades about this only a year ago though. That's what made me get the novel on Amazon. Maybe I'm wrong and it was festival news or a trailer though.

Managed to get Monday tickets for Shepherd's Bush, and the Vue website claims the screening is at around 7pm. My Vue app, however, is not with it and refuses to acknowledge the film at all. Weirdos!

Just came out the 1120 showing of the film at showcase Glasgow.Only two people in it and one of them was me.
Truly awful film with nothing to recommend it. No wonder it's sat on a shelf for 2 years.Not worth going to see even for free.
1/10 and the one was only because it was free.Like watching paint dry.

It really wasn't that bad. Lots of plot holes and the story felt unfinished but could have been a lot worse. I could have been watching The Big Wedding!

it must be really crummy to p*y for this movie, only to find out you didn't need to. You know, like for an £8-00 ticket, how ludicrous.

though I cant imagine anyone other than drunks or a misled young teenager handing over money for this (and them having more money than sense in the first place too). I bet the cast feel proud for taking part in such a misadventure.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?

I hate to say it but "The Big Wedding" might have been the better choice . . . I didn't think it was as bad as The Moth Diaries seems to be! :rolleyes:
