    Went to see 47 Ronin last night and on the way out, everyone was streaming out of Screen 5 (I think) fff'ing and blinding about how they had never heard of anything like that happening before. Staff were all over the place trying to calm people down and overheard one of them say: 'It's only 15 mins'.

    Then when I got downstairs (this was 11pm) there was a queue of people who had just come down from Screen 5 queuing up and many were arguing with staff also. Been at many films were there were projector problems and never witness sucha reaction so I'm assuming something else occurred?

    Wow sounds crazy. Maybe they paid to see Gravity and were accidentally greeted by the Justin Bieber film. :P

    Maybe the projection gave out with 15 minutes left? Happened to me years ago and everyone went nuts.

    Unusual there was any trouble, when I was at a viewing of the hobbit last year in the "Imax" screen the movie sound cut out for like 6-7 secs twice throughout the whole thing and come the end of the film the manager and a staff member were at the screening door handing out little dockets good for one free movie viewing. They were also apologising to everyone while handing them out, so in fairness this and other things with management in my experiences there have always been goood.

    I actually saw Antichrist in Cineworld. Think I enjoyed the walkouts (some after the opening scene!) more than the film itself.

    There's the ever hilarious Paranormal Activity instead of Madagascar incident as well: http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/10/25/movie-theater-accidently-shows-paranormal-activity-4-instead-of-madagascar-3/

    Maybe the projectionist was Tyler Durden.

    I liked the Witch character, but the film itself was somewhat boring.
