Went last night = Great film.

First time I have been to the cinema here in years (I hate the whole kids, telephone, talking, moving about thing that). We tried the gold seats at MCC and I've got to admit it was a fairly nice way to watch a movie.....

It's all about platinum suites at Dubai Mall.

I hear you about avoiding cinemas here due to the thoughtless idiots. It was loud enough to drown out most of the selfish gits, although the woman behind us had obviously never seen a Bond film before and the man with her had to keep explaining, among other things, that M was not Bond's mum!

130 dibs
Lounge area for waiting in and ordering shit like food and drink
Big leather electric recliners
Table service and call button
Pillow
Blanket.

22 quid to see a film?

scrubbedexpat141

I only pay if over 2h10m long.

The Dean

That's for the whole group I think, not per person?

Welivehere

Nope Gold is that same type of package and is 120AED per person.

Meow

Ouch. That's expensive.

The IMAX tickets for a MASSIVE screen were AED 60 each.

The Dean

Still cheaper than Leicester Square............

130 dizzers per person

The Dean

Ahhh............. so NOT cheaper than Leicester Square then.............

scrubbedexpat141

No but worth it for the longer films IMO

Maybe i am the only person in the world who thought Skyfall was shit?

Bond 'dies' by being shot off a train on a huge viaduct, and then falls into a river. How did he survive? Parachute? Mini-scuba mouthpiece?

Er... no. He just survived because he's er... quite a hardnut and pretty lucky.

The whole episode of his death was totally pointless from the plot point of view. You Only Live Twice did it all much better.

What a total let down. Never thought I'd say it, but I'd sooner see a Irish bloke with an invisible Aston than this sentimental pile of crap.
