Oh dear, one delicatessen is more than enough! I don't think I will bother attening the SKY screening, can you imagine how it would feel to be watching this film at the o2 knowing that MAA was showing in the next screening room... salt in the wounds
Wanted: 2 tickets to MAA O2 19-4-12 please, will happily swop 2 tickets to Elfie Hopkins O2 19-4-12

lol

Bizarre does not even begin to describe this. I am unable even to express my reaction to it. The trailer made this look half decent, which was very misleading! 3/10.
The only good part of the experience was seeing all the celebs at the premiere including Ray Winstone, John Simm and Kimberley Nixon (Pippa in the film) who was sitting right in front of me.

at least Delicatessen had proper actors, proper script and proper direction! And it was of course aesthetically way more interesting!
The only thing I found properly done in Elfie was set and costume designs
(Elfie seems to be rated 18 on IMDB, I have no idea why! In the UK it should work as a 15; in France it'd probably end up rated 12 lol )

You have already requested I kidnap Tom Hiddleston on Thursday. Only one kidnapping per week allowed.

By the number of retweets on my timeline I'd say prettyxcool cares very much about the Ecstasy premiere.

I think the £2000 cash that goes with the vip tickets makes it quite attractive!
