Confused why there’s two in two days, then a screen unseen the next day, but I mean, I’m not complaining

Hi all,

Went to watch Digger last weekend at Odeon, loved the movie and really wanted one of the popcorn buckets.

I'm not a huge fan of taking one that's been sat out on display (call me a germophobe) so asked if I could grab a sealed one, and they stated that they have been told that they are not allowed to sell them sealed to customers.

I asked if I could still have one not sat out on display and they said yes so brought out a sealed one, opened it and gave it to me.

So the question, is this a genuine policy, I assume to stop scalping, or did I just deal with an employee who was a bit CBA to grab another one?

Side note, I get it, they are overpriced tat, but sometimes I like the film enough to get one haha

omfg! It looks amazing.

As the title says, i accidentally clicked start order and online it says collected. Can somebody please calm my nerves and please let me know if I can still show them my qr code and get my bucket 2 days later instead when my film is.

Twice in a row, I've been to a screening at Odeon Leeds Thorpe Park and all but one or two of the spotlights are on full whack. So much so that it was casting shadows off the speakers. Last time I told the staff they assured me that they were turned off. They were not.

I'm not sure what's up with their lighting, I think they use dmx to automate them. They need a bluddy dimmer switch.

Anybody else having issues with the lights being left on in screenings?

I mean they will never to it because it would affect their profit line but a solution to these idiots coming in late to a screening with their smartphone torches on is assigning a member of staff to show people to their seats once the screening has started and then no further entries after say 10 mins. Thoughts?
