I take back what I said about thoughtful process - agree with unlurked that lice is a big problem, and disappointed that there was no provision for anti-lice upholstery in the planning application.


Suspect they have also forgotten about a pedestrian barrier / cattle grid to ensure that offending patrons (e.g. old people and young children) emerging from the darkness of the cinema into the light of the street are prevented from causing unnecessary traffic disruptions.


I vote for Lord of the Flies.

Actually if you'd bothered to visit the presentation or view the photo of the proposed scheme posted above you'll see the pedestrian barriers which are already there will stay, probably for the exact reason you've stated.

Actually AF, I find it much easier to form opinions without the benefit of having seen the applications.

I leave it to more diligent citizens of the EDF to argue points of detail - I will stick to being outraged on principle.

It has started. . .

Years from now, as alien explorers pick through the wreckage of planet earth, someone will look back at the lost civilisation of Humans and rue the apparently innocuous trigger point for all the terrible horrors that were to follow... the Picturehouse Dulwich.

Dad, I dug another hole



Since James Barber was one of the prime movers in encouraging Picturehouse to come to ED, this is a pretty mean comment.


E-dealer, I suspect that you won't be voting Lib Dem this Spring (and indeed neither will I), but please try to keep politics out of this and be pleased that ED will probably be getting a much needed asset.

E-dealer, please tell me why James B would want to get the cinema project cancelled when, as I said, he is one of the people who encouraged Picturehouse to come to ED. Or is there some Machiavellian conspiracy afoot that is too difficult for us ordinary mortals to comprehend?


More to the point, why does at least one poster have to post negative messages on EDF when there is for once some potentially good news?

What evidence can you back this claim up with, as stated before they are clearly depicted on the artist impression of the completed development. For someone supposedly supportive of the project a statement such as yours is extremely negative and potentially harmful.

Tell 'im he's dreamin.


:-)

Someone mentioned the pedestrian barriers outside the cinema. I reference the existing barriers on the PUBLIC FOOTPATH are probably going to be removed.


The proposed fencing spelling out Dulwich Picturehouse is part of the proposed cinema. I;d prefer them to East Dulwich Picturehouse but either way they look a nice touch on the drawings exhibited on Saturday.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
