Bizzare cinema experiences

mejinks · 07-11-2008, 02:32

Me and the SO decided to go out to the cinema on Wednesday to see Saw 5, I tried to get an orange code, but it didn't appear for 4 hours, luckily she has an orange phone too, and got the code straight away.

Then we get into the screen and there was nobody there. I mean nobody. You'd think a film like Saw would be really popular wouldn't you?

Although the seats were comfy enough, the legroom was ridiculous, there was nowhere better to sit, but I ended up draping my legs over the top of the chair in front because there was no way they were going to fit in the space provided.

Amyway, it was sureal. Just me and her holding hands etc and not feeling at all scared, I almost felt disappointed in the film

Anyway, bizzare semi rant over. Anyone else feel disappointed with Saw 5 or am I now so numb to the shock value it isn't shocking any more?

People have most likely heard all about how crap saw 5 is.
I have therefore didn't go and see it

You got the whole cinema to yourselves that can only be good, right?

I watched Saw IV last night and just got confused. It's all getting far too elaborate for its own good, and seems to expect you to remember all the bit-part characters from every film. Then they throw in side-swipes with the chronology, which worked well in... was it II? Can't remember... but now is just getting crazy. I tolerated, and even enjoyed part III but now I don't have much hope for V.

Slightly bizarre is the policy on removing digital cameras at the local Cineworld - you only get stopped if you either have a camera in your hand or have a bag that they will request to check. Fair enough I can sort of understand the reason but most digital cameras will not be worthwhile for cine-rips and considering we all had mobile phones with digital cameras (this was pointed out to the chap) it seems an odd policy - we also wandered in with toy guns as well but strangely no questions were asked about them.
