The new post must be for the comp with the phone number. Even if there were tickets I think I better give it a miss otherwise my friend might think I am mad watching 3 films in 1 day especially if it's sunny and there's the world cup on etc!

The screening for the phone no one has Russell Brand introducing as well, he must be camped out at the Vue West End then!
I've watched 3 movies in a day in the cinema, but it's not exactly the thing to do for a date etc or for the same friend, unless that friend is another FMUKker! haha

Even if I could get tickets for the 20th I couldn't go as I would have 2 kids with me having just seen Toy Story 3
I already had to pass up the chance of the screening the other week with free beer and pizza because I was taking one of them to see the Harlem Globetrotters :wall: and I'll be away next week when the other 2 free screenings take place :tears:

I was curious about that screening with pizza and beer, I just always thought fancarpet was rather dodgy and don't actually offer any screenings.

So did I ! - It was the first time I had ever been successful in getting invited to one of their screenings. I wonder if all of them offer the beer and pizza or if it was just for this film.

I overheard one of the women running it, after phoning Pizza Express to find out where the pizzas were, say that every time they're always late with the delivery so she told them to come 30 minutes earlier this time and yet they were still late.
102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.
