Hey guys

I have a few questions

1. Do any of you guys know if Cathay Cineleisure will screen ROTS at the stroke of midnight?

2. THX.com lists Cathay Cineleisure Cinema 3 and 4 being the only THX Cinemas here. What about LIDO? I thought it used to be THX certified too?

According to someone who is trying to book the whole of one of the theaters at Cineleisure, there is no Midnight Screening of ROTS there so he had to try for a morning one instead.

Hmmm...about the THX, I think Lido lost the certification a few years back or something?

No midnight screening of star wars? no way! but surely the cinemas will be screening it as per normal... how long ago did lido lose its THX certification? was it before AOTC was released? cos if that's the case, and since lido screened episode II anyway, then there's a good chance that they'll screen ROTS too, right? They HAVE to screen it! I'll sue the management if they don't for irreparable psychological harm done!



Aargh. I can't take the tension. Getting so psyched up over the movie...

JediBoo is only asking about Cathay Orchard Cineleisure.

Of course other cinemas will have Midnight Release of ROTS on May 18th like with AOTC. I'm aiming for the Lido one since I prefer its seat than GV's

I'm aiming for Cineleisure because its THX Certified =P
Then again, LIDO is the only other cinema with Dolby Digital EX. I can consider it too.

I thought Cineleisure has digital theatres? I may be wrong.. I'm 8mths out of date... What sort of sound system does it have?

Cathay Cineleisure is equipped with Dolby Digital EX, DTS and SDDS. I don't think they have DTS-ES or SDDS-8 and I dont think there is any cinemas equipped with those :/

But yeah, not sure about the digital cinema. Eng Wah has digital, but I'm seriously not interested in paying that extra buck for those greedy bashturds.

Here's what I know so far.
LIDO and Cathay Cineleisure are the only Cinemas equipped with Dolby Digital Surround EX
and Cathay Cineleisure Cinema 3 and 4 are the only cinemas that are THX Certified.

Ok. Thanks. Haven't been home for a long while.... Be back in time to watch ROTS at home though. Hell, the theatres near where I am are far away and aren't as good as the theatres at home. Grumble.

I hear the ticket prices have gone up. Greedy bastards.

Small update (though not new)
Shaw Lido has Digital Projection. So ROTS Digital should be there.

But its the ticket prices that I'm hesitating.
I'd rather pay that extra $1 for digital projection than giving them more income.
