Odeon Cinemas Group

...

Odeon in Les- in Leicester Square where it was going on, so you couldn't see anything.

And the only reason I knew something was going was 'cause me and my kid were walking along and-

Yeah

Yeah.

Oh, he didn't care.

You know what you needed to do? Right, so next to the Odeon Leicester Square-

Yeah

Myself and yourself both have...

We both go to Odeon.

So we have the Limitless Pass.

So all of our movies are included free.

Sounds great place.

It's got an Odeon cinema.

It's got...

Oh, has it got an Odeon? It's got an Odeon.

It's got everything, mate.

Are folk friendly? Unbelievably so, I think.

I did the film festival five days a week and then I worked at the cinema two days a week.

So working for the Odeon was my day job when I was at uni.

And I, like yourself, knew the contract was going to end at the end of the summer.

and I was like then what do I do I'll have no job so in order to stop myself from falling into complete unemployment I decided to keep going so it is a six or seven day week at that stage

I was traveling over to Edinburgh quite a lot as well.

And it was just like, I wasn't really enjoying myself.

I then took, I went back to the Odeon.

And that was simply me just going, I just need a job that I clock in and out of and get paid.

But because we want to see more people impacted by the love and the grace and the reality of of the resurrected Jesus Christ.

And so genuinely, it gives me great joy to announce this morning that whilst there's loads of plans still to happen, lots of conversations still to happen, that we've spoken to the Odeon Cinema and we are going ahead with an evening meeting that we're going to launch on the 8th of October after half term.

That's exciting news.

November.

So Adam Aaron, the CEO of AMC, says that this film distribution label is being created with a straightforward objective.

Given that substantial excess capacity exists in the movie theater industry to bring more movies to theaters, if we could take steps to ensure that a few extra movies could come to theaters each year, it is great for AMC in the United States and Odeon in Europe, as well as for our fellow exhibitors.

What is very interesting this year in my movie going experience, I can look back at all the movies I've watched this year.

Last year, I think I saw three movies that were anime related.

Yeah.

Like when someone asked me and Andy earlier if we worked here in Odeon, right? You just went, yeah.

But we didn't really know what he said.

We just thought you went, are you here? I think that's what I thought he said.

Full Moon Rising trailers is playing just over there, just over the way.

which is great, and I think the artwork is superb, the soundtrack is great.

Charles is doing a book signing today as well, and again, mobbed by horror fans when he entered the Odeon Leicester Square, which is great to see, and cool, great to see, and then for him to take the time to talk to us as well is also very cool, very humbling.

Another winner that we've both seen next, Ben.
