Bond on the 26th for us too.Tickets booked for the 26th. Before that I am going to see The Program on Sunday.
The Martian? It was good.
Not sure if you have any Showcase cinemas near you, but their seats are very roomy.Have to say that I loathe going to the cinema. Uncomfortable seats, volume usually to high or low, dirty, full of plebs, no way to pause if a comfort break is needed, expensive, too much background noise and many other reasons. Far prefer the comfort of my own chair and conveniences of my own home. So, I have to wait a year or 2 for a film - not a problem for me!

Ditto Picturehouse. My local is the Brixton Ritzy - nice cinema, with decent drinks you can take through to the screen!Not sure if you have any Showcase cinemas near you, but their seats are very roomy.
Cheapest adult ticket is £6.45 (and that's weekday daytime), so if Mrs Nod and I both go, that's the thick end of £13. Lob in parking, snacks, drinks etc. and you're well over Blu-Ray disk prices with all the benefits that home viewing has over any cinema. Yet to see a film that IMO needs a bigger screen than a decent sized TV.
Gravity without doubt needs the cinema experience.

When I saw 2001 on the big screen (having watched it 3 times on TV before) it made a difference.Gravity without doubt needs the cinema experience.
Is your real name Victor Meldrew by any chance?Have to say that I loathe going to the cinema.

In YOUR opinion. In mine, the only one that needs even surround sound is Saving Private Ryan and even that doesn't need surround after the landing scenes.
, and cineworld let you take your own food and drinks now too so it's even better
Even when they didn't. ...I still did it
so my girlfriend doesn't get angry carrying a couple kilos of snacks and drinks in her handbag! Makes my life easier

The cards are great value. I wish they had a family card and sack off our TV package.My local Cineworld is £12.70 for a 3D film now :O Pretty crazy considering you can get the DVD for that, and you can watch that as many times as you want
I've had a Cineworld Unlimited card for the last 8 years so it's a lot cheaper. I pay £16 or so a month and I can go as many times as I want (think my record is 5 times in a week ). Plus You get 25% off food in the cinema too You can even use it in conjunction with Meerkat Movies (and Orange Wednesdays before they axed it) so you can get a mate in for free on certain days too
cinema is a great experience if you don't have a nice big TV and good sound system, personally I will go and see a film that I feel deserves the big screen exoerience, and enjoy it at home when the Blu-ray lands.
