    hi, i have been to 2 of these screenings & asked if we could have a different drink (i only drink coke if it has rum in it!) & both times it was not a problem, although if i didnt ask we would have been given diet coke, i am always polite & if they would have said no i would not have made a fuss as it was a free drink anyway & does specify diet coke. we had no problem being given 2 drinks but got talking to a girl before the Mamma Mia screening & she was told it was 1 drink between 2 people, we told her that was wrong so she went back to ask & apparently was told it wasnt a drink each but the guy said 'here take it' & thrust another drink at her! i felt sorry for her, she was a young teen, but thats the only issue i heard of, although i do think the writing on the voucher is hard to read.


    i think the biggest problem is my tickets print out so small that you cant read anything on it. i only just worked out how to resize them for printing, about 5 mins ago lol

    mine automatically print on half a size of a4 & the bit about the free drink is very blurry. we didnt go to see Pretty Woman which was the 1st of the free diet coke films so dont know if there were any problems on the 1st day but you would think they would have sussed it out by now as the same cinemas are showing all 4 films!

    i'm glad of the free drink as the cineworld we go to does not allow you to take your own in with you & have random bag checks. i get mine checked about half of the times we go, although i think i have the largest white handbag ever made so not exactly subtle!

    Thanks for letting us know :).

    Aberdeen must be the only area (on the planet it seems :eek:) not to have a preview of Unstoppable.

    Hi,

    I have just managed to get tickets for the screening on sunday of what I thought was supposed to be the first 2 Girl who... films.
    The thing I am having trouble with is the confimation screen says it is a preview of the new film, the girl who kicked the hornets nest.

    Anyone know which it is?

    If it is the last film I need to see the second one before I go, but if it is the first and second films I don't need to.

    Thanks.

    It is definitely for the first two films of the trilogy, so you'll hopefully be able to time when the second viewing starts if you don't want to watch the first part of the trilogy, and obviously be able to stay in bed that bit longer.

  • I got tickets for the above (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo/The Girl Who Played With Fire), but couldn't print the ticket at the time and haven't received a confirmation email, and I can't see a way of retrieving tickets or reprinting, unless I'm being really dim?!

    This happened to me with another momentum screenings film a while back (Heartbreaker, I think...)

    Any help appreciated, thanks.
  • Just got back from the screening in Northampton for 'Unstoppable'

    Loved it. Brilliant. The turnout was amazing aswell, don't think there was an empty seat!

    If you're a fan of the Keanu Reaves 'Speed' you'll love this!

  • I saw My afternoons with Margueritte today. Quite an enjoyable and uplifting film. It has its funny moments and Margueritte's character is delightful.
