I wouldn't have thought that the one in Stratford is at all open yet.

It will be open by the time the screening is due. Infact, it's opening soon I think - there is a comp for the Stratford one on the generic cinema tickets thread.

I know that the company is called Westfield but surely they could have called the Stratford shopping area and cinema 'Eastfield' and avoided confusion. Having 2 Westfields is very silly but I am boringly practical.

LOL But that would mean changing the company name! I assume it's an Australian company as there are a lot of Westfields there (several in some cities too) and they're just all called the same, no matter the location.

The new one is open today! Okay just to be on topic, I wonder if they will do some screenings of the Help there?

It's Vue there I think, are there often Vue previews? I think I mostly go to Odeon and Cineworld for those and sometimes Picturehouse.

Well there is a competition for it that PXC found for which they will be holding a screening of it so I wouldn't be surprised if it does further screenings of it later. Plus they need to let people have a feel of whether it's worth p*ying to see a film at that cinema. Vue tends to be slightly more expensive than others and there is a Picturehouse in Stratford which is within walking distance of the Vue so they do have some competition.

Rarely through ShowFF... I have seen Sky use Vue more often than others...
