    How come the Die Hard info's been posted twice today as if it's not gone live yet? I got my tickets a few days ago :-/

    Does anybody know where this film is being held is it the Odeon cinema?

    Movies First screenings of This is 40 will be held at 20 locations on Thursday 7th February. Virgin Media customers can get up to 2 free tickets from 31st January on a first come, first served basis. Good luck!

    If you have booked a ticket, it tells you on the ticket exactly where the screening is taking place.
    Also, if you're just waiting for a cancellation, the booking site tells you exactly where the screening is taking place.

    Therefore the only kind of person who asks where a screening is taking place is someone who cannot access the booking site and needs certain information to complete their fake ticket.

    Die Hard is live, has been since friday 10am. Its even in the codes only thread, currently post 19.

    Its just some people don't actually read the thread themselves when alerts come through, so when they come across a screening, they think they're first when they're actually the millionth to see it. If they actually bother to check before posting they would know it and then they wouldn't be going out of their way to disappoint thousands of people.

    I think more were released today too which is probably why people are posting it.

    Indeed, I'd had my email from Sky with my ticket enclosed by 11:18am on 1st Feb :j

    Just back from Song for Marion. A lovely uplifting film which I thoroughly enjoyed.

    So I took the plunge today after my friend saying they couldn't make Song for Marion showing tonight and decided to go alone! Enjoyed the film and happy to report that I wasn't the only one sitting on my own! :j
