Just pre-ordered 4 tickets to see "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" at Cineworld (Nottingham) 20:20 showing on the 18/12/2015 for £3.30 per ticket for IMAX 3D (with free glasses).
Didn't think this was a bad deal all in all.
Need to create an account to get it at this price otherwise it will cost £3.60 (as shown in the screenshot).
Not sure if this is just at this date/time/location - but either way, I hope it saves someone a few pennies at the big screen! :)

As a final update.... just been to Cineworld and picked up the 4 adult tickets from the ticket machine with no bother or fuss.
the 20:20 showing I originally booked for now indeed shows 20:30.
Happy days!
I'm soo glad that I got these and was able to pay it forward to other fellow HUKD users :smile:

I'm guessing that the 20:20 showing has moved by 10 minutes to allow all us lovely fans extra time to turn up.
I've personally gone for a slightly earlier showing at 17:20 on the 18th.

The showing for 20:20 on the 18th at Cineworld Nottingham is no longer on the site but there is a (full price) one at 20:30.
What's going on there then?

Aside from Avatar, I've not seen a single film that was better for being in 3D. In fact, the opposite is usually true, with a darker picture irritating me throughout. Avatar was something a bit special, I saw it in IMAX 3D (which was significantly better than standard 3D I thought) and it blew me away, and while I knew the underlying film was a bit rubbish, it didn't matter. Incredible.
Then it came, cash in time!! The masses seem to like this 3D, Avatar made a billion, lets make everything 3D!!! James Cameron spent many years designing the whole film around 3D, using new technology, 3D cameras that pretty much the only ones in existence at the time, so much attention to the detail of the world he made, I think he forgot about the script somewhat. Soon we had Clash of the Titans 3D....we don't need all that planning, design and 3D camera rubbish, just run it through the Macbook Pro, job done. It was like watching an action movie of cardboard cut outs, which, ironically, was also representational of the acting.
There is not a movie franchise that comes close to the excitement of Star Wars. I suffered the pain of the prequels, Jar Jar, Haden Cystiansham, and dialogue so poor that my junior school nativity play had more depth. Now, we have a film with a really good chance of not being dire, in fact, I reckon JJ Abrams could make it stoned, and still it would be better that Episode 1-3. So, am I going to see it in 3 bloody D, if that's the only ticket I can buy, too dam right I am!!!

As this is a great deal I've decided to be charitable.
I've booked 3 lots of 10 tickets for this showing. I'll donate them to different parents and toddlers groups. On the understanding that each parent must take a child with them.
You can't introduce Star Wars too young
It's a cheap night out for them
No need to pay extra for childcare
They will fit in with the average mental age in attendance, myself included.
PS I didn't really but not a bad idea :smiley:

Managed to bag 4, then another 1 - So I can go with a car full.
It's a bit glitchy though. Both times I had to click back on my web browser as the price had increased. It actually almost went through at full price, but luckily the payment failed that time.
Fingers crossed it's not revoked. Bit difficult when I've already been emailed the tickets.

I booked 2 tickets just now. Not that many left and mainly the first couple of rows only. I managed to get about four rows back so I can't complain for £6.60!

The term kids has quite a big age range. Then to add to that some kids have a far higher level of maturity than some adults.
So I'd suggest a self tasering course and miss the showing. Save people the annoyance of you turning up.

Once the ticket is sold they can't do anything, as you only authorised a certain value.
Cineworld made similar mistake for the 4DX double-bill of Fast & Furious 6/7 on release date.
Should have been about £25, but they priced them up at £4.30!

This must be a glitch as imax 3d for this film is normally £15.20 without online discount in fact this price is even cheaper than a unlimited premium cardholder surely this wont be around long.
Ok this is weird so for this particular screening its actually £2.70 unlimited premium screening and normal price as above.The only possible could be because its 2 days after release.
A previous screening the night before 3d non imax is £11.70
