Bizarrely, the last time I saw that was in a restaurant - can't remember what it was or what it was called - in Lordship Lane. I think it was whatever was there before GBK moved in.


They must have had a DVD of it or something.

I'm all for community involvement, knowing your market and all that, but if this cinema opens, I hope they are wise enough to be able to decide for themselves which range of films to show. Deciding what films to show based on a public vote would be dismal. I promise not to tell you what films I want to see, if you promise not to impose your personal tastes on me either. With three screens, I hope there will be something for everyone.

Well said.







But Dodgeball wouldn't go amiss.

Very exciting. As well as the classics for the older crowd (of which I'm one) I really hope they show the latest films for my very avid film going teenager. I'm sick of schlepping to Surrey Quays to drop them off - and them 2 hours later to pick them up.

I live behind the proposed site. Can't ever park anyway which is the sign of thriving gym/butcher/fishmonger etc. not sure how many people would drive to the cinema anyway. Generally if we go to Brixton it's the bus. Happy to accept parking downside for enhanced local amenity that a cinema would bring.

    • Okay Earl, of those 'consulted' how many voices were in favour of the junction and how many against? Were there more responses in favour or more against? This local junction change is being driven by Southwark Labour Councillors- not as you assert by Central Govt. Also, if consultations are so irrelevant as indicators of meaningful local support in the way you seem to imply, why do organisations like Southwark Cyclists constantly ask their members to respond to all and any consultation on LTN's and CPZ's?  
    • You could apply the same argument to any kind of penalty as an effective deterrent.  Better than doing nothing. 
    • Check the link I provided above. It’s gives a very full account of where the push for LTNs came from, (in brief, central government). The consultation did not show that the majority of local residents were against the LTN. Not for the first time, you’ve confused a ‘consultation’ with a ‘referendum’. The outcome of local elections (which many opposed to LTNs excitedly promoted as a referendum on the scheme), suggested they are actually quite popular. All the polling on LTNs generally, also shows majority support across London.
    • Rockets said: "Perhaps you should be asking who is lobbying the council to close the junction or parts of it or why the council is happy to waste so much of our money on it - who are they representing as even their own consultation demonstrated they did not have support from the local community for the measures? The results showed the majority of local residents were against the measure...but they are going ahead with them anyway" This.
