Maybe I should have made multiple entries. I am puzzled, though, as I entered very promptly (for Whiteleys) so expected to be amongst the first 50 as specified. Maybe they didn't really do it on that basis and surely if they had, they would simply have notified winners as soon as a screening was full?

OK, so am I the only applicant not to "win" tix for the Sunday screening or merely the only one bewailing the fact? The other preview would actually suit me better as I'll be in London for 2 plays so could either see the film en route or once there. Shall just have to keep hoping we hear some more...

I actually won two sets of tickets for this at Odeon Greenwich on 13 Feb as I used two emails to maximise my winning chances - I normally never win anything!

I want to offer them up in swap central but the email confirmation has no name on it, so I wonder if there will be a guest list? :confused:

I was wondering that as well, I think I might email them and ask.

This is all a bit strange with that River Island competition.
I am quoting the winning email:

If you have been unable to print your ticket from the website, please print this email and take it to the cinema with you to gain entry. If you do not have this email or the ticket, you will not gain entry to the screening.

If you would like to be invited to more exclusive preview screenings, then please click here to join Momentum Pictures Preview Screening Club.


So I emailed her back asking whether there will be a guest list as ticket has no name on it and this is the answer I got:

There are a certain number of tickets given away for each venue, I am not sure of a guest list but you may have to quote your email address at the cinema.

So does that mean there was a Momentum code and most people will have Momentum tickets but a few will have got those non-descript competition win tickets?

Thanks for doing that, Beate. Sounds strange since there was a momentum screening for this held back in January - I would not have thought they would hold another one? :blink:

I have just bagged some tickets for the Sky screening at a much more local cinema to where I live so I want to offer both pairs of my Greenwich tickets to FMUKers.
