    Don't know about anyone else but I'll be so glad when the Blind Side goes on general release, I've never seen so many codes and cinemas offering seats to see a film before. Do you think there's anyone else left out there that will pay money to see it?
    Saw Inglorious Basterds yesterday, really enjoyed it but long at 2 1/2 hours.

    They do seem to overdo the codes at times for one or two films and yet there is always someone who seems to miss out.

    I don't like this new idea of allocating one code for one cinema and the film only being shown at maybe four cinemas at most. :(

    Are you allowed to offer tickets on here if you can't make a screening? If so, I have two tickets to see The Blind Side On 22 March 2010 at 7:00 PM at Apollo Piccadilly Circus.
    19 Regent Street, London.
    PM me if interested.

    Know what you mean I quite fancy that Philip Morris film but no screenings anywhere in London. Maybe more is better than less!

    i think thats because its an Odeon in Colchester

    also, being smaller than Braintree or Ipswich, it just doesnt have the spare screens to be able to show the previews - the only freebies ive seen at Colchester have either been through Heart FM or the Evening Gazette, not SFF or TT

    Alos just managed to get two tickets for Date Night with 985783
    http://www.seefilmfirst.com at portsmouth, been trying for a few days but was lucky tonight, there may be more available if that helps.


    I'd been trying to get tickets too for another location with no success - and had no trouble getting them straight away this morning, and neither did my friend after letting her know - so try again if you've not had previous luck as they may have had a lot returned, or released more? :)

    Wins : McCains garden games set, 2xTickets to Alton Towers, Links of London friendship bracelet, 2xIdeal Home Show tickets, McFly album CD, Virgin Balloon flight for 2 with a case of ScrumpyJack cider and 2 ltd edition jackets, Powerboat racing experience, £50 Virgin voucher, Aerobie Pro flying ring & Rice Krispie squares, Tesco baby pack
