    THE ICEMAN

    1365083176_Screenshot2013-04-04at14.42.42.png
    Certificate: TBC
    Screening Date: Thursday May 30
    Screening Time: 6pm for a 6:30pm start
    Locations: To be confirmed

    The Iceman is the story of real-life mob hitman Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski, who was reportedly responsible for over 200 murders. Richard Kuklinski (Michael Shannon) and his wife Deborah (Winona Ryder) appear to have a model American life, living with their three children in an idyllic suburban ranch house with a big lawn on a quiet street. But unbeknownst to Deborah and the kids, when Kuklinski goes off to work in the morning — or, on occasion, in the middle of dinner or the middle of the night — he is carrying out executions at the behest of the Gambino crime family, employing a wide variety of deadly methods (guns, knives, explosives, strangling, poisonings) that make it difficult to trace all the fatalities to a single killer. The Iceman shows the development of Kuklinski's career from the 1950s through the 1980s, chronicling his friendship with Gambino soldato Roy DeMeo (Ray Liotta), his mentorship under assassin Robert "Mister Softee" Pronge (Chris Evans), and his troubled relationship with his brother Joseph (Stephen Dorff), who, like Richard, was plagued by sociopathic tendencies all his life. From Lionsgate UK and Millennium Films, The Iceman stars Michael Shannon, Winona Ryder, Ray Liotta, Chris Evans and James Franco. The film is directed by Ariel Vromen, from a script by Vroman and Morgan Land and based on the book by Anthony Bruno. The film is produced by Ariel Vroman, Ehud Bleiberg and Avi Lerner and executive produced by Trevor Short, Danny Dimbort, Boaz Davidson, Ren! Besson, Lati Grobman and Laura Rister.

    I repeat, Cineworld did not hold the competition for Iron Man 3 just as they didn't for the other films when they have screened the Regional Premières. They are paid to host the events in the winning venues. As for the winning locations having their own Facebooks, Didsbury won yet they only have a very new page and they have won in the past.

    THEY HAD A competition FOR WHERE THE LOCATIONS WHERE TO TAKE PLAY FOR REGIONAL PREMIERES OF IRON MAN 3 ON THERE FACEBOOK BOOK.

  • Yes, but who did hold it? Unless people who are eligible for tickets know there is a vote and where to find it it's unfair:)

    Do a Googlr news search for 'Iron Man 3 CineWorld' and you can see several local papers with a competition for tickets.
    I'm pretty sure this is how the voting would have been done too, sign up for your cinemas news letter and follow them on Twitter etc.

    Please do not use all caps,it denotes shouting!

    The voting was organised by Buena Vista. The locations chosen were Cineworld cinemas and you voted for your local Cineworld.

    I ask yet again, how is that unfair? Anyone with a Cineworld local to them had the opportunity to vote.

    It is only unfair if you don't have a Cineworld but that would apply for whichever chain hosted the event.
