Re: PDF Timetable

Couple more changes to the itinerary: The film on Discovery Screen 1 on Friday at 13:00 seems to have been changed from "Bring me the head of Machine Gun Woman" to "Daylight" (which is annoying, because that was the only film I wanted to see at that time), and on Monday, "O...

Re: PDF Timetable

Not being a pub person mine are brew, food and Kindle breaks, but well done that man - stellar work :). Have pretty much planned out my weekend with no stress thanks to this and all I have to do now is decide on which way the couple of clashes go. Happy to have helped :) I'm not especially a pub pe...

Re: PDF Timetable

Two tiny things: 1. On Saturday 24th, Demons Rook and Stalled overlap end and start times. I'm guessing this can't happen? :lol: Good spot! If it's any excuse, FF's timetable overview page also makes the same mistake. Have corrected this to match the times as stated on FF's individual film pages. 2...

On a related note, I'm working on an interactive itinerary planner that lets you see what overlaps with what and when films are repeated... http://www.benj.com/frightfest I'm sure there's lots more I can do on this (grid lines denoting hours of the day immediately springs to mind)- let me know if y...

Re: Where Is Everyone Sitting?

F35 and 36 for myself and the mrs. Same seats for the last 4 years now. They feel like a home away from home. :D Think I'm E35 (aisle seat?). Will try not to wobble my head around too much. You'll also be glad to hear I'm not a big jumper :D As long as you're not wearing a top hat! :D Will say hell...

Cool- thanks, will head over there and have words with the manager too :)

Re: Halloween All Nighter

Hi, We made the trip from Oxford to London again last Friday night to sort out our unallocated seat tickets. We opted to go for a group of 5 seats near the back in the central block as there was an available aisle seat (one of our group is picky :x ). The Vue seem to have reserved seats around rows...

Re: Halloween All Nighter

Same story here- got my tickets in person at the VUE and was told seating is unallocated and indeed my tickets have no seat numbers. And yet the online system let people select seats. What's the betting if I get there and plop down in a seat, someone with that seat number will turn up and demand the...

Re: Halloween All Nighter

Anyone else thinking this was a rush job announcement? I got the email 30 minutes after the tickets officially went on sale and there were some atrocious typos in there to boot. If so, that might explain the online bookings cock-up.

Re: Halloween All Nighter

I just turned up at the VUE and got tickets no problem. No mad queue in sight, beyond that cannot comment on seat availability. Some good news for those not yet with tickets however- it's unallocated seating so if you get tickets late you aren't automatically guaranteed to get seats by a side wall.

Re: So, where are you sitting?

D29. Very, very pleased. An aisle seat towards the front. Absolute bliss. :D Some of the guys I was queuing with were also aiming for aisle seats, and we were all worried that they would be snapped up before we made the counter. Aisle seat right behind you Wulfster (E30). Will try and keep my seat ...
