I'll wait to see Mamma Mia 2 when it hits Amazon or cable. I do like Cher and heard her version of Fernando is great. The theater we go to has a cafe and a bar and they bring your order to your seats which are like a recliner.

In some of the outback towns of Australia you can still see olf derelict wooden cinemas with signs flapping in the breeze that say things like "Talkies" (back when sound was first introduced to movies). I love the old cinema pipe organs too.

It is run by volunteers and they play many independent films along with only good (no blow them ups) popular movies. We joined for a small fee and pay half price to have a nice evening out. Their popcorn is also much cheaper.<br /><br />I have not seen the new Mama Mia yet, but it is in my list.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-77868347730403585002018-08-17T23:26:13.012+01:002018-08-17T23:26:13.012+01:00I must admit I don't go to the cinema very muc...I must admit I don't go to the cinema very much. I find having lots of people around while I'm trying to watch a film is just really irritating. It's been years since I went and then it was the earliest showing Sunday morning so there weren't many people around. Now the cinema around here is really fancy. They serve food too which I would find really, really irritating. You even have to tell them what seat you're sitting in, so no moving if you get stuck near someone irritating.

I am glad you enjoyed yourself. There is always few good films in a year and worth looking out for and a good way to spend a morning or an afternoon. Silver Screen showings here are £6. I expect to go to over 25 films a year but as these are spread between different cinemas I have yet to purchase any memberships. When chatting about films one day a lady asked me which cinema I attend, expecting a reply of one name. I said it is not the cinema that is important, it is the film, so therefore I go to all three of our local ones. My preference is actually the Odeon Multiplex because it is a whole experience and feels like a proper outing. The tickets are about £10 for over 65s.<br /><br />Cher's part in Mamma Mia is minuscule, almost just a walk on so no worries there Thelma.
