I go to the cinema twice per week.<BR/><BR/>BUT I get distracted while eating food, cos I love food. I'd rather have a nice meal, finish it first and then watch the movie, undisturbed. so can't really eat food while watching a movie, but I could settle for a nice tall glass of fresh beer, but alcohol makes me pee so I'd hate to miss any moments of the movie if I have to make a bathroom break. <BR/><BR/>so, no food, no beer during the movie.Sabina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14679639206346030919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400514519057660990.post-43515322062604463842008-10-04T09:30:00.000+01:002008-10-04T09:30:00.000+01:00If there's a better cinema, I'd like to see it.If there's a better cinema, I'd like to see it.Andy Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462842599334822134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400514519057660990.post-92030231678299758282008-10-04T08:56:00.000+01:002008-10-04T08:56:00.000+01:00Booze, thrash metal and lesbianism are mandatory u...Booze, thrash metal and lesbianism are mandatory under EU Constitution 1.33.<BR/>I cannot help but imagine film piracy involving grizzled men with eye patches battling over golden cans of film with gun powder and swords.Dan Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123972041475109886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400514519057660990.post-29014740177756171382008-10-03T10:20:00.000+01:002008-10-03T10:20:00.000+01:00Piers: We're going TONIGHT!

I usually want to barf if someone near me i a eating a hot-dog or nachos in the cinema.<BR/><BR/>As for attendances. I'm not sure these type of cinemas would affect ticket sales as you don't get so many bums on seats. <BR/>I think it may be a way back for the humble independent cinema chains though, as it would give them an edge over the multiplex.<BR/>Meaning you get to see films that are crowded out by 6 showings of Batman at one cinema, and get to watch them in comfort and with booze and food.<BR/>I have a cinema near to me (http://www.therexcinema.com/) which seems very similar, but these novelty cinemas in the UK are currently being hounded by the big distributors because of the higher price tag you pay for indulging in a better experience. And of curse the distributors feel they should get a piece of it.(sigh)<BR/>As for distributors bleating about piracy, I'm afraid I must bleat along with them!Dan Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123972041475109886noreply@blogger.com
