STAR WARS III
Anyone else ready for this one?

OK, so I and II were pants, but the originals were and still are great, and by all accounts Episode III gets a good write up.

Got my tickets sorted for the 20th, nice big leather seat jobbie in the cinema

Ooh, is that Gold Class? In Aus we have some smaller cinema's at your local complex that were fitted out with seats similar to first class airline seats, they would recline all the way back, and they'd be grouped in pairs with a small table between them. You could pre-order whatever you wanted to be brought out to you at certain times during the movie. I had some nachos and another beer brought out in the last one I saw while I was there (lord of the rings) and finished up with a slice of cheesecake and a coffee, 20 minutes from the end.

Do they have that here somewhere?

Tony,

UCI have several cinemas that do a similar thing, I'm off to the printworks in Manchester, free bar area (Alcohol isn't free) with free nachos, chocolate, popcorn and hot/cold drinks. No recliners, but big leather sofa's and chairs in a seperate balcony to the main cinema, so you get the BIG screen experience.

MY-VUE (I think) have a "gold class" which sounds exactly the same as you describe, again there's one in Manchester (Lowry Centre) but that's fully booked up for ages, reclining leather seats, press a button for waiter service throughout the movie etc, smaller screens though from my experiences

C.... I am 12 at heart

Talk about luxury! Over here, beverage delivery consists of half a bucket of coke being dropped in your lap as some clumsy tosser squeezes by to get to his seat!

Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait, can't wait

I watched H2G2 the other night and that was quite disappointing

Got my tickets booked for this one too - at the Odeon in Leicester Square. Always good fun going there, big ass screen and just makes it seem a bit of an event. Going on the 21st (Saturday) and the last time I did this (for Episode 1) there were people dressed up all round Leicester Square and it was a really good night, if slightly disappointing film.
