Heretic Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 I know what you mean. Still, anything beats my shitty job. At least College is fun.I'm in my final year of sixth form. All this Uni application shit is seriously doing my head in. I just want the year to end and A-Levels to be over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I've only just gone back to college. I'm telling you, it's so damn weird being 4 years older than the rest of the class. A guy was wearing a Ghostbusters shirt earlier and seemed baffled when I pointed that out to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

College is better than being stuck in a job you hate though so I guess that's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is indeed. It feels weird being looked up to just because i'm older, but it's a laugh most of the time. The work's not too tricky towards the BTEC which is a plus. Shame 3D Modelling's a pain in the arse though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 BTEC extended IT. Taking two years and costing me £1200 per year, plus £90 deposit and £169 registration. Rediculous amount of money for me, but I hope to get a leg up out of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just glad Student loans exist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankenweenie did terrible as did PA4.I can't see HT even getting to £10M with Madagascar 3 dominating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Back to Skyfall screenings...I know Vue Westfield London is #1 but it has: 115 shows just over the 3 day weekend! Thought it would be closer to 80 like the other big cinemas have but 115 shows at just 1 cinema, wow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 115?!?!?! That is monumentally insane! Can't wait to see how many shows Trafford Centre Odeon gets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 The Cineworld in Glasgow is 18 Screens, I've been and its huge although the AMC Empire in NY has 25 screens. Not sure what the biggest cinema in terms of screen, might be Cineworld Sheffield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 How much did TDKR open with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 £14m if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Skyfall will beat that..... nice.But TDKR had summer weekdays. Would be interesting to see if it can beat its total.Requires 56.2m for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Skyfall's opening on to a week long school holiday, and Bond is a sort of British family tradition, so it's first 10 Days won't have any disadvantage compared to TDKR.

Fake Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 So it needs a good lead after 10 days.....BTW what are the 2nd and 3rd movie on OW records list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see how many shows Trafford Centre Odeon gets.Only has 34 for the whole weekend at the moment...they need to add some more I think!At the moment it's Deathly Hallows 1 with about £18m in second and Quantum of Solace in third with £15mNothing getting close to DH2 for now.But TDKR had summer weekdays. Would be interesting to see if it can beat its total.Requires 56.2m for that.Skyfall has a great chance of beating TDKR's total Fake!The Cineworld in Glasgow is 18 Screens, I've been and its huge although the AMC Empire in NY has 25 screens. Not sure what the biggest cinema in terms of screen, might be Cineworld Sheffield.Vue Westfield London has only 17 screens but by far the most Skyfall showings.
