Had a great laugh last night, lots of funny anecdotes, been saying them all day!
Some of it was crude but still hilarious!

Guessing the hot weather put most people off. 2 things annoyed me about the screening, a) the room was boiling which made it very uncomfortable nearer the end and b) for some reason it seemed that they'd left the screen doors open and we were getting very loud sound bleeding from the screen next door which made it hard to hear the dialogue from our screening!

Apart from that, I thought the movie itself was brilliant. Loved all the little references and 2 bits (near the end of the film) made me laugh so much it hurt. It was a good sign that on the bus home my wife and I were still giggling about different bits of the movie and I'm stilling smiling at parts now. Would happily see again :-)

On a last note, has anyone else noticed that it seems impossible to film a movie in boston without either showing or filming part of it in Fenway Stadium :-p

Half-full? I and at least 40 other people after me (6.20 pm) were told it was already full. I asked for the manager and he eventually let us see any other film we liked and gave us free cineworld tickets for another occasion!

Saw this last week and really enjoyed it. Quite crude and there was a lot of Family Guy humour in it but it was really funny. I reckon it will be quite a big hit!

There was quite a lot of empty seats, was definitely not full. My wife and I had empty seats either side of us. They came in several times to count how many empty seats were left. How strange. Even with it not being full though the room was like sitting in a sauna watching a movie.

Was very disappointed with Ted...found it to be woeful and not very funny. Had more fun with the Android app.

Will give it about 1/10 and thats just because I like the teddy bear :D

Can't believe with all the free previews I haven't seen this
A horse walks into a bar and the bartender asks, "Why the long face?"


A pony walks into the bar and whispers, "I'll have a beer, please." The barkeeper asks, "Why are you whispering?".
"I'm a little hoarse."

You're not the only one, and there was even a preview fairly local to me, but on a day I couldn't go. Think I've had it now as not a Virgin customer and none of their locations are near me anyway - could you go on Monday 30?

Ditto, so frustrating as I actually really want to see it. I was out of the country for a few of the screenings and can't make any of the other dates because of other commitments :(

And hard to tell from the views here whether I would find it worth p*ying for!
