When the screen went completely black but with some voiceovers about an eclipse and then the film changed from city centre to them riding a horse in the woods WTF?

(Maybe I was the only one awake then.)

The giant Top Cat was outside the cinema after the film (posing for photos with kids). I told him that the film sucked and he looked upset. :giggle:

oh yeah that... I really wondered what it was about! I just assumed it was just me missing a joke or missunderstanding (not understanding) some kind of weird English thing/word/joke/sentence!

The eclipse was only giving me false hope, for a moment there I thought the film was over!

The Eclipse thing was meant to be a "Idea, fade to black, fade back with idea in progress", but the fade was too slow to work, and just seemed out of place.

The eclipse was terrible -- talk about sloppy filmmaking. I was hoping that the film had broken down and we would be given vouchers for something else.

Meanie! :giggle:

I'm starting to wonder if there is something wrong with my kids though as they really, really did like this film, they were glued to it throughout :blink: I thought maybe it was just me who thought it was that bad but obviously not!

They loved the giant Top Cat too have some photo's of him giving them a hug ......but they liked the giant M&M in M&M World dancing the Thriller routine even more!
Preferred Cinema's now Paignton or Exeter!
