Went To see Deja Vu in the Cineplex tonight. Screeching/tearing on left speakers. Advised attendants. Usual story. Nothing happened. Persisted throughout the film. If it isn't bloody unfocused films it's something else. Honestly - that bloody place - and €16 for both of us to get in.:mad:

Great Film I have to say. I was in the exact room and probably beside ya for all I know. Ya werent sitting at the very back with a load of young lads who couldnt keep there feat still and had to keep kicking me chair, oh and also couldnt stop their mouths from moving when giving a running commentary on the film. Oh and did I forget something? Yes, I believe I did. The ****ers (excuse my german :P) then decided to start throwing paper. Shut em up by turning around, not a word outta dem for the rest of the film. /rant.

Anyway, ya I heard the noise but the movie was loud enough to cover it so I didnt say nothing. What did they say when you mentioned it?

Ah now dont be so harsh. We all love to go watch movies on the wide screen and expect that our local cinema who charge a fortune actually maintain the place properly.

Although, its getting fairly popular these threads. Like that robot or person posting about the forum (down right advertisement if you ask me) in Waterford. One thread will do, just bump-it-galore. ;D

Any outsider looking in would think that all we care about is cinemas and new roads!

(EDIT - What a super 6000th post)

Nothing else to whine about really!

Indeedy! Congrats to you!

2% of those 6000 posts were useful I believe.

Now...what's this about the new cinema?

Yeah Sully, absolutely brilliant film. I just got the usual blank stare from the attendant. I was at the 6:30pm show. Same problem with some skater dudes yakking at the top of their voices. They were ignoring two ladies in their 50s behind them, so words were had. All was then quiet. Great ending I have to say.

It's doing the rounds the last couple of days Fric. Might be only a rumour. Sincerely hope it is!

Well I suppose the same can be said of certain topics on other fora. However, to me that amount of threads is an indication as to how badly that cinema is run. For God's sake this is the 21st Century. This shouldn't happen. End of story.

I thought this self advertising was against the Charter.

Dont think this forum has any real moderator anymore. The odd mod might pop in and clean up something serious or dangerous, but not general stuff like advertising or off-topic posts.

The solution to much of our cinema related problems is thus:
1. Have a free-in for one showing on all screens of some film that happens to catch the imaginations of the various knackers, delinquents, scaters, scumbags and whatever other riff-raff happen to be roaming around the city.
2. Half way through, precision nuke the cinema from space. (Two birds, one stone.)
3. Give the rubble to some country that needs needs concrete casing so that they can bury their nuclear waste at the bottom of the sea.
4. Uproot the foundations of the cinema in order to protect from Indian burial ground type phenomena.
5. Reset foundations and build a quality development to house some non-cinema related retail on it.
6. Phone in a few death threats to the owners of Railway Sq. to 'hurry the **** up opening their cinema, or else'.

Tune in next week for a 'final' solution to the fighting in the middle east...

I look forward to it.

But the whole Railway Sq. thing has progressed at a ridiculously slow pace. It looked 'almost' finished about a year ago, and now it just looks closed just for the sake of being closed. You'd swear some people were afraid of making money!

Yay, at last a cinema in Waterford where my view won't be blocked when someone sits in front of me.
