In what world is the theatre near SFU? It is on schoolhouse but like a 20 minute drive up to SFU.

Regardless, have heard good things about it so far.

Jgresch 01-02-2012 06:31 PM

what's the capacity of the theatre?

I leave SFU 10 mins prior to showtime and make it on time. Then again there's no traffic when I usually go (even if there is I don't watch movies alone so I can make use of the HOV lane). Sorry if my subjective estimate somehow struck a cord with you, and offended you.

I hope the sand that has found its way into your vagina escapes trouble free. Allow me to restore your delicate mental balance by offering my sincerest of apologies. There, is everything better now? Great.

Lol, you only drive in HOV lanes when you have passengers:lawl:

The theaters capacity if fairly small but has reserve seating style as AVX

skyxx 01-02-2012 09:20 PM

They are planning to bump the points for an extra 500 i believe. Which makes more sense and still worth it imo.

Not really racist! 01-02-2012 09:21 PM

I believe most if not all cineplex are gonna be renovating and part of their 5-10 year plan is to make all theatres ultra avx and have a bar at every cineplex..

murmur 01-02-2012 09:31 PM

using the scotiabank scene visa card and debit card together brings me points faster :fuckyea:

Not really racist! 01-02-2012 09:33 PM

scotiabank scene visa card is pretty meh...
u can get more back from mnba...

BrRsn 01-03-2012 01:02 AM

just bought two VIP tickets for tomorrow :fullofwin: Hope its as good as everyone says :)

StylinRed 01-03-2012 01:18 AM

19.50 isnt bad.... MI4 imax was 18.50

i imagine that price is going to skyrocket soon; they've had these things in the states in the past and it was like $40 a ticket

dr.funk 01-03-2012 12:03 PM

I dont think they are gonna raise the prices i can see them charging a lot for liquor tho

skyxx 01-03-2012 01:15 PM

^ People who want to drink won't care for the prices. True story.

Can you bring outside food/drinks into a theatre?

Yes, tell your date to bring a very big purse! My GF's daughter learned a very important lesson about this - she can buy 3x the amount of candy for the same money outside the theatre, and no-one suspects/searches little kids :whistle:

I remember being a teen and sneaking booze into the theatre - hell I still do it for Canucks games! :D Order a fountain drink, head for a washroom stall, mix in booze!

Gridlock 01-04-2012 08:33 AM

This is worth it for me for one reason alone: 19+

I'll trade obnoxious little dipshit teenaged assholes trying to look cool for possibly larger dipshit drunk adult assholes trying to look cool for a change of pace.

skyxx 01-04-2012 11:59 AM

^ Agreed

Great68 01-04-2012 12:22 PM

I'd go see more movies in the theater if they gave me the "Pause when I go to the washroom" option :p

I can't remember the last time I saw a movie in the theaters, at least not since I bought my big TV and blu-ray player, and my seat is always reserved and alcohol always available.

UltraAVX sounds cool but It's not going to get me going to the theaters.

You were never able to as far as I can remember. However, sneaking in a flask and portable vaporizer is recommended.

I find some staff in metropolis' cineplex are assholes. Normally buying 2 tickets in 1 transaction will give u 100 scenepoints. So to bypass that, I buy 1 ticket showing my scenecard. Pass the scenecard to my gf to get another ticket. 200 points gained total for 2 tickets. Richmond and Coquitlam staff dont give a shit. But metrotown people threatened to confiscate my scene card because it is against terms of agreement (got caught twice with metrotown).

Nowadays I am forced to use my mobile app + physical scenecard

LOL I hear ya last time in Richmond the guy was like i'm not technically aloud to do this but whatever and did it. That's why my gf and I don't bother anymore and just use our own cards. Yes, it takes twice as long to get a free ticket but by the time we do get a ticket we both get one so it's really the same in a sense.

BrRsn 01-04-2012 06:09 PM

Food was meh when I went. Angus burger was okay I guess ... a bit overpriced @ $11 though (tasted like a quarter pounder on a nicer bun lol). I think the only time I'll be doing VIP from now on is tuesdays or when I'm hungry and its too late to go to cactus across the street

Seats were nice though (like AVX, except with tables), and staff were friendly :)
