Well that is some consolation for there being no London premiere!

That is assuming that London will be one of the chosen preview cities after voting has closed :p Fingers crossed it will be!

wish I'd gone to that Hobbit do now. Saving money is all good but missing this and the Game of Thrones screening is too much in one year. At least my instinct is to save money by not going out for shorter events, so my hats on the right way anyway. Small consolation.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?

Just checked with the o2, and it's not going to be a HFR screening. Boo.

That's odd, as Cineworld at the O2 twitter feed told me it would be. Apparently it's going to be in screen 7, and that is equipped for HFR.

I hope it is - perhaps whoever was on the end of the phone doesn't know what they're talking about.

Let's face it, I don't think any of them do.

I've just tweeted them again to ask.

About half an hour ago I remembered that this was tomorrow. I've thought of nothing else since. MAKE TOMORROW COME FASTER!
