"The shoot was originally scheduled to take place on Sunday - but the unusually sunny Scottish weather played havoc with the schedul. Gloomy, grey weather was required for the correct setting."

How dare the sun come out in Glasgow???

Did Glasgow have a lot of looting going on?

No! Absolutely none. I saw a psychologist on tv who explained that Scottish people have a different way of thinking and rioting and property belonging to other's. Not saints just different!

Also, poor weather discourages rioting!!!

A trip to the cinema can help you maintain your health...

Annihilate anxiety at the cinema

The chronically bored are twice as likely to die of a heart attack when compared to their more stimulated peers. Watch these films for the feel-good fuel you need to succeed and live longer

Spending time in the Marvel Universe or Hogwarts extends the time you get to spend back in the real world. According to Dr SC Noah Uhrig from the Institute for Social and Economic Research, going to the cinema once a month makes you 62% less likely to report anxiety and depression. Pick one of these films to maximise your health.

Horror
...scares off Alzheimer's
Washington University research found that watching horror films increased the brain's visual processing activity by 25%
Admit one Don't Be Afraid of the Dark

Comedy
...laughs in the face of heart disease
The journal Heart reports that watching a funny film for 30 minutes dilates blood vessels and increases blood flow.
Admit one The Inbetweeners Movie

Action
...takes down high blood pressure
Research in the journal Stroke found that adrenaline reduces the affects of cortisol on your blood vessels.
Admit one Captain America

Skip the ads
To save your ears, enter the auditorium 10 minutes after the advertised start time and sit as far into the centre of a row as you can. The British Standards Institution discovered that the sound is higher for the ads and trailers – louder than a passing train. Skip them to avoid a 3D assault on your eardrums.

More horror films for OH then?

Instead of skipping the ads you can use ear plugs as well - works a treat for me.
