    Guys please stop posting sorry and thank you. There is a thread for this you know.

    I am sorry had to post this to stop further "me neither" or "me too" messages.

    By the way the clean list of cinemas for Hellboy is:

    ODEON, Belfast
    ODEON, Birmingham
    ODEON, Dundee
    ODEON, Edinburgh Wester Hailes
    ODEON, Greenwich, London
    ODEON, Huddersfield
    ODEON, Lee Valley, London
    ODEON, Leeds/Bradford
    ODEON, Liverpool City (London Road)
    ODEON, Manchester Printworks
    ODEON, Rochdale
    ODEON, Sheffield
    ODEON, Southampton
    ODEON, Whiteleys, London
    ODEON, Wimbledon, London
    ODEON, Braehead, Glasgow
    ODEON, Gateshead, Newcastle
    ODEON, West Thurrock


    I know this is pedantic but.......

    You complain about people posting on the Code only thread comments with no codes, but where is the code in your post ??
    You tell people to stop posting "sorry" on the code only thread, then you say "sorry I had to post this" - no you didn't. You chose to post it, no one forced you.

    I couldn't give two hoots if people in their enthusiam/disappointment post comments on the wrong thread ( or heaven forbid a competition to get a free cinema ticket).
    What really annoys me is people posting on the code only thread criticising others for posting there, not adding a code themselves, and then adding the phrase "I will delete this post later" as though that is THEIR ticket to break the rule they are just quoting !!!!!
    Why is "No tickets left at Skegness" such an unforgiveable crime, but "stop chatting" isn't :confused:
    Those people who subscribe to the code only thread and get emails and/or text messages will surely get them which ever "non-code" message is posted.

    Sorry to let rip, but I have had a couple of bad days, and getting fed up with "nit-pickers" generally - not Webkami in particular.
    I just wish people would chill out a bit. There are worse things in life that someone posting a non-abusive comment on the wrong thread.

    I would like to add that I have managed to get Free Preview tickets to 2 films - thanks to ALL posters on both threads. They are the first ones I have managed to get in months, so really looking forward to them.

    I will be back to my laid back apathy soon - I hope ! :D

    P.S If posters wish to "inform" newbies that they have broken such a major taboo, why don't you pm the "criminal", rather than adding to the offence ??

    :confused: no one to swap the tickets...:eek:


    Hi rantu :hello:

    If you haven't already joined http://fmuk.dailyforum.net/index.php it would be worth joining, they have dedicated swap/wanted/offered threads on there, it's a great site too, very friendly and helpful.

    Good luck, hope you manage to swap

    I just can't seem to get any tickets now-a-days!! Are all the screening defintely full or are they not all released yet, as I get to SFF pretty early when they are announced but never any luck.:confused:

    If anyone has spare tickets for Hellboy 2, Get Smart or the Rocker, I 'd be interested and any tips on getting tickets, they always say screening full!! Bah!!!

    It's best not to do that, we're not supposed to offer tickets on MSE, you could offer them on http://fmuk.dailyforum.net/index.php though :D

    I know where you are coming from but if you just offer 2 tickets in a thread where everyone excepts codes to lots of tickets when logging in, you might not be best liked by some people. And MSE does not like swapping in general, whereas FMUK does - thanks for the heads up, sparky61!

    How creepy I asked this question a few days ago & then as if by magic codes appear. Managed to get tickets to, so I am well happy.
