none of us would have pirated the film and we all handed our phone; if she, for personal reason can't live without her phone, fair enough that she leaves without seeing the movie. You can call it PR stunt or just a mum concerned for her child...
I don't see what's the wrong with that. And I assume that nobody confiscated her phone at the restaurant; so good for her if she had a good meal instead!!

but hold on a second, aren't we getting a little off topic here? :roll:

I've managed to convince myself that I actually want to read the book before seeing the film. This is odd, it doesn't usually happen with anything...

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2012" club. I saw 32, which is rather delightful.. I beat Mr. Glass on free films but he narrowly inched me out on total films seen.

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2011" club. I saw 20, interestingly enough. My more realistic target was to see more free films than TheyCallMeMrGlass. I lost.

tbh I think shes just getting stick because she is Jordan ie she has zero talent and is famous for having no talent. Fair enough of people want to hate on someone for being famous for doing nothing. Shes a basically a peice of poo.

Speaking of stupidity, I just got back from Kingston, having misread the date on my Hunger Games tickets...mm next Thursday, not today lol.

if you go back a few pages, people that went to the premiere last night have reviewed it already ;)

I'm going to use a voucher for it, and at least not have to worry about having a Amex card to get in...
:thanks:

After doing it once you never do it again. I check my ticket about 3 times as I leave the house these days, after turning up at the wrong cinema (rather than wrong date) one time.

Now I can go on this thread. After 2 weeks, I finally finished the first book (Disappointing last few chapters but great anyway).
Hope the film gets a lot done without feeling too long in it's 140 minute duration. Roll on Monday.
