I have the capital fm ticket but not the email. I don't know what to do here. I have a ticket that says West End Vue and one that says Odeon West End... both with the 26th though. I'm so utterly annoyed by this.jem&theholograms wrote:Just realised I only have the print out with the 26th date still, though it is a capital fm ticket and I have the change of date/venue email - I think I'll chance it tomorrow anyway as isn't that far.

Re: Rango
So sorry to hear about all the confusion people have had for this weekend!prettyxcool wrote:Which screen were you in kobbing? As the one I went to - Screen 5 - was jammed packed, 99% full. But I was told at the door that there were two screenings today, one at 10.30am (which was what I had on my ticket) and one at 11.00am. I was asked if I got my tickets from Capital FM as there was a guest list for those people.
captivated. It was great fun and silly. 7/10
I was super disapppinted when the date was moved to Sunday as it meant I couldn't go and gave my tickets away. Then I saw new codes released for Saturday and grabbed tickets in the hope I would be let in without kids as it didn't mention kids being a requirement on the SFF printout.
I turned up at 10am expecting to be turned away but was let in no problem! I was quite impressed by the effort put into the gala screening - the kids must have loved it! There was so many security guards though, I was afraid I would be stopped
And like pxc above, I was in screen 5, but didn't see her or I would have said hello!
I rather enjoyed the film itself but felt it was too long and dragged a bit (over 100mins). It was a charming film with amusing characters and I chuckled quite a lot. There was a decent amount of adult humour and I found myself recognising the famous voices narrating these wild western rodents/reptiles/amphibians. The animation was impressive - especially Rango's lizardy skin. I felt this film would have worked much better in 3D but was entertained nonetheless. The fanfare and goodie bags at the cinema were a nice touch. I'm really glad I turned up and tried my luck yesterday morning! 7.5/10.
Best line in the movie: "it's a puzzle, like a mammogram" (had me in stitches!)

Re: Rango
Sorry, I missed you too funthing29. Where were you sitting, I was sitting just in front of the reserved seating on the right about four rows down from the back.
and I had forgotten to get glasses
, as it felt like it should be, but on looking round to check, saw no one else wearing any.

Re: Rango
I arrived just when they opened the screen so got my pick of seats. 
I was in the second row from the back on the right hand aisle in the middle section. Screen 5 is a nice cinema with a large open space - doesn't feel claustrophobic like some of the tiny screens. The AC was on too high though and I got rather cold.
The free flip flops felt rather random though? I think they were too large to fit on any child's feet!

Re: Rango
I came in at about 10.20am (as I was enjoying all the fun activities
) and it was already filling up. I must have walked right past you as I was two rows down from you in the middle section aisle too!
In the cinema, they looked like kiddies flip flops, but when I checked at home they are quite large for kiddies feet! They actually fit me! But I hasten to add, I have small feet

Re: Rango
Got in at West End Odeon without the slightest of problem. Stroked a couple of snakes and a chameleon before taking our seats. Very glad I took the chance!

Re: Rango
Just seen this at the odeon and good to see bevvy, beate, valda, ejwrank and hottips!
After seeing the trailer, I was expecting a decent film. Sadly I didn't like it and walked out after an hour. The beginning was odd and didn't draw me in and nor was it funny. Shame really as it had potential.
2/10 from me
