Were you really that loud opas?![]()

Lol a_person, I was definitely not as bad as thedude's neighbour but since we seem to be the only two people who felt any kind of anxiety over this film, I thought there could be a slim chance

"if you wanted tickets the Fan premiere tonight but didn't win any, well don't worry as we will be giving a few pairs of tickets away on the door so come down and you could watch the film with the cast"

Preference of cinemas:- 1. Glasgow Renfield Street Cineworld, 2. Glasgow Showcase, 3. Braehead Odeon, 4. Vue Fort, 5 Glasgow Springfield Quay, 5. any other cinema in Glasgow area including Hamilton
Also Falkirk, Dunfermline and Stirling but these are rarely used for free previews.

I am not surprised. I don't think this is popular.

Re: A Lonely Place to Die
I wouldn't go even if someone pa*d me to. Trailer looked a bit crappy to start with anyway.

Re: A Lonely Place to Die
So this is a ''fan'' premiere. No treats and is in screen 2. On the plus side, screen 2 has been renovated and has been vastly improved.
102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.

Re: A Lonely Place to Die
I seem to be in the minority here, but I actually enjoyed the film! Liked the fact that the violence wasn't toooo bad... was a bit worried that it was going to be gory and was prepared to shut my eyes, but it was just gory enough to not offend a wimp like me! It was all action and really the only bit I didn't enjoy as it was totally non believable was the whole Rio meets Notting Hill meets OO7 meets Valhalla scene! As if anyone is going to dance about the streets in a small Scottish village topless! It's toooo damn cold for one thing! It was entertaining and though the characters weren't awfully likeable, I was quite surprised by just how many of them were taken out by the various "baddies". Harmless suspenceful fast paced entertainment... 7/10

Re: A Lonely Place to Die
Turn out for the fan premiere last night wasn't great. There were loads of empty seats in the refurbished screen 2 of the Empire. We also got shafted on the goodies front- no water, no chocolate, no popcorn- nothing. Gilbey and the cast gave a brief introduction before taking their seats and the film starting- oddly with lights still up. Sitting closer to the screen it wasn't too distracting unless you looked over, as you could still make out other audience members clearly. I imagine it could have been quite annoying further back.
Anyway, my review for the film itself is here: http://wp.me/p1LZHn-4v
This could have been good but was overloaded with ridiculous sub-plots and contrivances. In the end, it's quite average.

Re: A Lonely Place to Die
Would you believe, over a month after seeing the film, my Mini Maglite torch from the comp win for this just turned up at work. I had forgotten all about it.
