    What?
    The second meeting of the boards film club as discussed here.

    Invictus, starring Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman. Directed by Clint Eastwood.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9Ovkye6lac


    Where?
    Cineworld Parnell St. Dublin.
    It was deeemed the easiest for the most people to get to based on feedback in the above thread.

    When?
    Thursday, 11th of February.

    Time?
    8:30 screening. Meet in the Cineworld bar from 7 onwards.

    Who can come?
    Anybody who frequents this film forum.

    Can I bring non-boards friend(s)?
    Yes you can. The more the merrier!

    Is there a membership fee
    Nope. Just pay for your own ticket :P

    Will we be booking in advance?
    Not really. However, we will be meeting before the film. That would be the best time to get tickets, or before that if you like.

    How will I know who/what to look for?
    Keep an eye out for a James van Der Beek lookalike with a toy Triceratops/rhinoceras.

    Will we be hanging around after the film?
    Yes. The plan is to have a grand aul chat about it afterwards.

    Not a huge poster in the Film Forum, but a HUGE film buff. Would be really interested in going to see this film and having a conversation with fellow film buffs! Hopefully I can make it!

    Will try to make it along. Should be interesting to see what Sir Morgan of Freeman does with the role.

    Arsenal ruined my life when I was 7 winning the Cup Final against the mighty Reds. I've hated them ever since. Other than the last game of the 1988/89 season I've never wanted Arsenal to win as bad as I want them to on Sunday. I hope they batter them (copright Sir Fergie of Manchester, last Sunday!) See you Thursday!

    Hmm, may not make the last bus/train so I'll probably pass on this one. Heard an interview with Morgan Freeman last night. Was interesting.

    When is your last bus? The films' run time is just over two hours, so adding in trailer/advert time it should be over well befre eleven o' clock.

    The pub does really good food, but you would have to get it before the film....

    They close the kitchen in the pub at 9.45 as far as I remember from being there for the first meeting so don't think we are going to make it in time. I nominate Eddie Rockets for post film sustanence, my body doesn't like KFC for some reason.

    Btw if no-ones come up with a name for our motley crew yet how about "The Usual Suspects"?

    Vote for it on Thursday, only people who actually attend should cast a vote :P

    Or let the glorious leader decide.

    Name suggestions.. at the end of the page. Some are hilarious :P

    Hey everybody. Tomorrows 8:30 show will be in screen 4 & it is assigned seating. Tonights 8:30 show was a complete sell out with seats being sold that don't exist. Lots of problems. So I recommend all those going to show up to the screen 15-20 minutes early. The finish time is 11:02, but it will finish a few minutes early.

    Sorry I can't make it. Went with my good lady friend tonight. Haven't got this bros before hos thing fully understood yet :D Pretty decent flick, although I am a sucker for a good sports movie. That said this film excels in parts off the pitch .It ain't no Mighty Ducks or Miracle or Cool Runnings but all in all a solid 3.5 star movie.
    I'm getting a plane for the Ireland Vs France game
    :eek:

    You should be able to find us in the bar (First floor of Cineworld) by the jukebox in the corner. Look out for a hoodie wearing, tea drinking wheelchair user and a dinosaur loving, James Van Der Beek lookalike ;o)(Morning Galvasean, thanks to your lot for beating Liverpool last night, cheered me up no end after your performance against Chelski!)
