Wow!!!

What a shame that this isn't real. It WAS real when the Sun advertised it months ago and the screenings took place, but right now the only possible reason for the new date is training someone in how to use the system.

This might mean that there will be screenings later on but not right now!!

My apologies. I shall not bother in the future.

This screening has already taken place so don't get excited. I just wanted to share with you an article I have read this week. 2 fellas from Bootle had arranged with a cinema in Liverpool for a special screening of I Daniel Blake. This took place on 24th November and was free of charge to unemployed, pensioners , and those on low incomes. They felt that the people the film is about ought to see it. They were also inviting Theresa May and her cabinet. I had seen the film last month and was outraged by the whole system for claimants who really struggled and hit brick walls.

Yes. I posted the details on codes only asking people to share but emphasising who it was for.

Did you hear how it went?

No, and as its a bit out of my area I probably won't. Just thought it was a really nice gesture for it to go to those particular people. Never been in need and had no idea how frustrating it must be. All MP's should see it.

Does anyone have any idea whether Moana will be in 2D or 3D tomorrow (29th)? Would be good to think we'll get the full Fabulous Beasts experience (3D, X-Box screen, dangerous lack of queueing system, pointless half an hour delay etc...) again.

My preview yesterday was in 2D which surprised me.

I saw it in 2D yesterday at my local Picturehouse so I assume it won't be 3D tomorrow.

You need "control" of a STUDENT

£20 a year

Perhaps a new girlfriend ?
