    Again, two words, Ruby Tuesday. Was at the Dark Knight last night in the eye, and as much as i love the place and very very rarely go to the omniplex, i have noticed the sound kinda quiet in screen8. been to see Mama Mia, Wall.e and The Dark Knight in the past two weeks and have noticed it and have pointed it out to the people Im with and theyve acknowledged it. said to to staff too. i just always remember being almost encapsulated by noise,whereas i have been able to hear chit chat from the people behind me during noisy bits..i def think theyve lowered the sound and to be honest it makes me reconsider going to screen8 again..

    Just out of Screen 8 since Midnight to see Dark Knight and the sound is proper.

    Leather seats comfy as hell and twice the size of a regular seat and a big divider between seats to put your drinks etc. LUXURY.:)

    Had my arm twisted to go and see Hancock in the Eye.

    It was on in screen 5 'the art house' screen. It must be the smallest 'cinema' screen in Ireland.

    Having paid 26 euro for 2 tickets & popcorn & a drink I REALLY felt ripped off. If I had hired a DVD & sat close to my telly I'd have had a better 'cinema' experience! Us Irish will put up with anything!

    I like the eye except it doesn't have a small screen outside stating what movie is playing in it. You can't sneak into another movie like the omni plex.

    The other answer hit most of the benefits. There's more!

    The slope is very good also. It would be almost impossible to have your view blocked by someone in the seat below you.

    And there are separate toilets for audience in 7.

    You can also rent out 7 if there is a large group who want to have the cinema to themselve. I think it holds about 40.

    I have found it to be kept cleaner than the others. Maybe that has something to do with the type of person who uses it or maybe it is just easier to maintain.

    Overall, I find it a much better experience and probably worth the difference.

    Man you sure do have a hard-on for the eye cinema :rolleyes: could you get any more sexually excited about a generic cinema?

    There is nothing special about the Eye Cinema, its just another generic run of the mill pricey cinema, with some rather small screens. Nothing to get excited about.

    This thread has all the hallmarks of an fake grass roots viral marketing campaign - way to many people way to excited about nothing!

    Maybe it's just me... maybe I'm just a grumpy old suspicious git, but to my eyes this whole thread smells fishy - read the post above this a again!
