As you know, we are going to see Revenge Of The Fallen as part of the Friday evening bonus programme of events in a local cinema and we have arranged for an EXCLUSIVE screening just for Auto Assembly attendees! It is going to be held at the Odeon cinema on New Street in Birmingham City Centre and while it isn’t an IMAX cinema, the IMAX in Birmingham was not only going to be quite an expensive option but the cinema wanted us to guarantee over 250 ticket sales to grant us an exclusive showing and to FILL the cinema (about 320 sales) to get a reduction on ticket prices) which we couldn’t do.

The Odeon is about 5 minutes walk from the hotel and we will be given EXCLUSIVE use of one of their screens and tickets for the film will cost just £4.50 although we may be offered a discount on these depending on how many people go along. The plan is to meet up in the main convention hall at around 8:30 pm and then once everyone has gathered, walk over to the cinema, buy our tickets and see the film! However, what we need to do now URGENTLY is to get a rough idea of how many of you would be joining us so we can let the cinema know what size screen they can reserve for us and to guarantee the screening takes place. They have screens ranging in size from 67 people up to around 300 and we can get the use of any of them for the convention and they can order the print of the film in, but we will need to reserve it in advance so we need to know in the next 24-48 hours pretty urgently so the sooner you email us the better.

Please remember that the screening is exclusive to weekend attendees only, as is the whole of the Friday programme but IF we do have spare capacity in the screen then we *MAY* consider opening it up to other attendees who have arrived early for the convention. The only thing we must remind everyone is that because the cinema screening is an exclusive Auto Assembly event, you will need to wear your passes when you go to the cinema to ensure that you are sold tickets to the film.
