Just curious who turns up at midnight showings is all. Only hardcore fans I assume which is a good thing.....but it's just a time I can't comprehend. Happy to go the following morning first thing where there's no bull**** like queues or obnoxiousness amongst the audience.

There is another risk to going to midnight showings too. Spoilers. You will get people who purposefully show up and shout "Snape kills Dumbledore!" type stuff. Even if its not true and completely made up, you will spend half the movie waiting for it.

I’ve gone to midnight shows and have had a mixed bag. I love going to near empty cinemas for movies I want to see.

That said I was worried that since school children are off this week that the morning shows might be packed with them. Also a friend is going to a midnight show and I said feck it and decided to book.

I’ve got a double bill ticket and a spare cause I thought a different friend would come. I don’t care, I seldom do these things any many people do more damage on a night out (I don’t drink) then I will do staying up until 3 watching a movie.

Generally the late night crowds are pretty good. You get one or two twats but that’s hard to avoid.

In my home town those that go to midnight showings tend to be a few local oddballs that go for bragging rights and to be first of their little circle to get it up on their facebook page, that feck all read, and go on about it in work but won't spoil it.

Booked in for 8am to avoid the kids... teenagers still asleep and even parents would not bring young kids at 8am... I hope

alchemist33

I can't imagine going at 8am. That early just doesn't seem right, especially coming out and the whole day is still there!

It's Saturday at 1pm for me, because of work for me and the wife.

GavRedKing

It had its red carpet premier last night in LA and a few of the big Marvel Twitter ITK's have seen it.

2 of them that I follow havent spoiled anything but have said its a roller coaster, one of them said he cried a few times throughout the film and it was a great end to the decade of Marvel films during that phase.

There might be spoilers around though with people who have seen it so its definitely something to be aware of in the coming days.

Im sorry lads. Its been a blast but i cant risk someone going rogue in here and me reading it before a mod gets to it. Gonna have to start ignoring ye

I get you, it's weird coming out of a cinema in daylight, like coming out of a pub blitzed into bright sunshine.

Can you confirm if theres any mid or post credit scenes?

Theres apparently none but that could be because after the premier last night they cast spoke a few words.

There are neither

Reviews are coming out now. Be very careful, I read a blurb on Metacritic that gave away a major plot point. Just avoid everything until you can see it.

We are in the Endgame now folks. Time to unfollow thread and try to avoid the internet for the next 48 hours. Be care on Instagram folks there’s an artist who’s promoting a portrait of an important scene from the end of the movie. I’ve luckily avoided it so far but I’ve seen others have been burnt by it.

what the hell!

Thanks for the heads up guys! No more internet for me so until Thursday. Reviews look very positive from what I've seen. I don't like going in with such big expectations though but I'm sure they'll be exceeded!

Unearthly

96% rotten tomatoes score.

All aboard the hype train!

ArthurG

Spoiler free Guardian review up. 5 stars.

flazio

Counting down to midnight.

Mitch Connor

Avengers daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! (kinda, effectively)

1 more nap til endgame!

GavRedKing

Little under 36 hours until I see it, nearly a decade of Marvel leading up to this.

Cant wait TBH.

LoonyLovegood

Heading for the midnight showing tonight, nervous and excited. Is it just me who feels almost a little bit sad this is ending? Like I know Marvel films will continue, but it feels like a long running TV show finishing at last.

Baggly

I CANT WAITTTTTTTTTTTTTT


Work is gonna suffer today.

14.5 hours....
Going to see Infinity War beforehand too, just to warm up

Same!
Double feature tonight with the kid and my baby brother.
Looking forward to the end of this arc, but honestly on emotional tenterhooks! :pac:

Thats some marathon for an adult, nevermind a kid

I say kid...
He's 15, still if tonight pans out to be the emotional rollercoaster I expect it will probably be the last time he comes to the cinema with me ever!

coolisin

Guys & Gals enjoy the late night/early morning viewing's!!
I shall unfollow this thread for risk of a spoiler, but I hope everyone enjoys this and the hype train doesn't somehow crash along the way.

I will be back Friday night!
Until then good luck and good bye!

Baggly

If anyone reading this is available at noon on Friday and hasnt gotten tickets yet, i have two iSense tickets for the Odeon at the Point going for free to a good home.

I had them for myself and a friend, but friend bailed, so im going tonight instead.

First come first served!

pjohnson

Wait tonight? I thought it wasnt till 29th?

Baggly

Midnight tonight fo' sho.

PsychoPete

I'm in two minds about going tonight, means I won't get home till about 4am with work in the morning but then again it is avengers....

Mickeroo

Weird, could have sworn rotten tomatoes had 60 or so reviews up on it yesterday evening (film was sitting at 98%) and now they're seemingly all gone again.

GavRedKing

I think I'll bail out of the thread.

Whoevers getting to see it tonight, enjoy and dont be a d*ck and spoil it :pac:

I think this could be the first film in a long time where I could be tempted to go for a 2nd viewing in the cinema, take it all in without the emotional attachment.

Ah right, must be my browser doing something funny.

Or maybe I'm in an alternate reality populated by everyone that was snapped and there's no avengers films here :eek:

Unearthly

Just seen Cineworld are doing an IMAX 3d at 7:45am tomorrow. Don't recall them ever doing that before

B-D-P--

Just seen Both Mayo and Galways Cinemas only have 1 3d viewings at 16.10 each and rest are 2d,, What'd be the reason for this?
Better in 2d? They know they'll get views so only show in 2d?
More seating in 2d rooms?

GavRedKing

Omniplex in Cork are showing it in Maxx but im not sure if theyre showing it in 3D.

IMO, any fast paced CGI action based film is pretty wasted in 3D, that could just be me though.

I'd prefer to see this in 2D only.

johnnysmack

Dread it, run from it, destiny arrives all the same or should I say....Endgame does!

Think I just ****ed myself on Instagram by inadvertently spotting a comment while scrolling my feed.

Hopefully this person is just being an idiot as opposed to being a massive dick in addition to being an idiot.

It's not actually out anywhere yet is it?

Press screenings and cinema staff have seen it yesterday.

At this stage, quiet a few people have seen it so until you see it yourself, id treat any comment section of anything Marvel related, as a no go zone.

I've avoided all comment sections on social media of the Russo's, Marvel, Disney, the cast, etc, for the last few weeks in the off chance that someone spoils it, even if someone is wrong, you wont know until you see it yourself and there could be a seed in your mind involving a character and anytime they're on screen you'll be wondering.

demanufactured

Heading to liffey valley Friday night........roll on Friday...cmoooon

Tazzimus

I'm aiming for Saturday, Tullamore doesn't seem to be booked out yet so need to book tickets when I get home.

JJayoo

I will leave it a few days and try to catch it during the day time, zero time for attention seeking bellends screaming in cinemas

It was on my feed so was just scrolling not necessarily paying attention to comments. Then I saw an image posted my marvel studios pleading with fans not to spoil the film....and along comes some **** with a spoiler in the very first comment. :pac: Lesson learned anyway.

Yermande

I'm heading along to a midnight screening. No work tomorrow. I've been a good boy and very active in the gym all week, so I'll be getting myself into an absolute jocker with popcorn and m&m's. 'Endgame'. It will be in the morning.

PsychoPete

I caved in and booked a ticket for a midnight screening, going to struggle getting up for work tomorrow. Asked herself if she wanted to go with me, I'm going alone
