Krissykins Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 I’d agree on Don’t Worry Darling. A 3/5 and if Florence wasn’t the lead, probably a 2/5. My first night showing was packed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Ugh just had my worst audience in years at Smile. London is such a coin flip as to whether people are going to piss you off throughout the movie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early morning shows are the only way to go for horror if you don't want to be surrounded by morons. Worst genre by far for audiences.

Packed shows are fine generally. Horror ones as well. I think I hit a trifecta of shit though. Horror Movie, in Central London on a discount day.

Horror Movie, in Central London on a discount day. Can't get much worse I made that mistake with Us as the Odeon Leicester Square back in 2019. People loudly chatting, answering their phones, checking Facebook every 5 seconds, kicking the seats in front of them (an achievement for them given the leg room…). Worst cinema experience I’ve ever had. Then a month later I saw Avengers Endgame in the same screen/same seats and it was the polar opposite experience.

You've randomly made me think, are those seats on the balcony of Leicester Square Odeon any good these days, don't mean the circle, the ones behind it haha. I'm always in the stalls now for the recliners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm always in the stalls now for the recliners I went on the standard seats once for the LFF showing of A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood as that’s all that was available, they’re comfortable enough but I wouldn’t recommend them, the screen feels like it’s a mile away and you get less of an effect from the Dolby Atmos. The recliners at the front of the balcony are good though, especially if you treat yourself to the “Royal Box”. They were a BIT expensive though last time I went back in 2019, I think Endgame cost me about £40 a ticket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnokesLegs Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) Halloween Ends seems busier around me than Kills did just based on a quick glance around my local cinemas. It helps that it hasn’t been bullied out of the big auditoriums by Venom 2 like last year. Although the Cineworld doesn’t seem to have a standard showing after the 19:10 screening until the 22:00 screening. Every showing between those is a premium format (IMAX, 4DX, VIP), so looks like they’re trying to force people to pay for the higher ticket prices at the peak times.

Same here with the showings, but it wasn’t busier than Kills. There was a staff member in a Myers mask though and the staff had Halloween Ends T-shirts on, so that was a nice touch. I wasn’t big on the film though. Don’t know what they were thinking with most of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipJ2001 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Small drop for Smile again, maybe 15% down. Halloween will be #1 over the weekend, but Lyle better on Saturday (and probably Sunday) #9 opening for Emily 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 (edited) $2.4m for Halloween Ends apparently. £2.1m Halloween 2018 £2,660,000 Halloween Kills £1,598,000 So down -20% on the 2018 film and up +35% on Kills. That’s decent. If it’s #1, it’ll be the first of the trilogy to open there. edit: I forgot Lyle Lyle Crocodile had all of Saturday and Sunday last week so that’ll be included in its £3m.

SchumacherFTW Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Does anyone else find that Cineworld are terrible at showing updated trailers for movies? I just sat down for The Woman King and still got the first Black Adam trailer 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
