Only press if no-one else from the website is covering it and someone else was tonight. So I was there with a showfilmfirst ticket (which a_person kindly gave me). Yes I did manage to get in.

Anyway stupid embargo. I can tell you I was sitting a couple of seats away from Ultraculture's Charlie Lyne who tweeted his opinion of the film afterwards then hastily deleted it after remembering the embargo. Silly boy.

It's starting to sound like those that didn't get in should make a joint complaint to SFF and cineworld as it sounds more like it's lazy staff rather than SFF oversubscribing.

I'm assuming they stopped letting people in because the film had started and just decided to tell people it was full.

So if I tweet about seating fiasco, that's not embargoed? Just asking.

Lol, of course not. I'm sure the FMUKers who did get in are most grateful to you jramjee and thank you so much for posting it! o/

What did you go and do instead? Just go home?
