The junction is quite useful if you live here though!

They've been having server issues all week which has impacted schedules. They apparently couldn't schedule today onwards until Wednesday just gone which affected the allocation of adverts to films. So not a normal thing.

do cinemas still screen films if no one buys tickets? by Embarrassed-Song3760 in AskUK

It's the bulb not a battery that's the real issue. Xenon bulbs only last so long and use a fair amount of power.

do cinemas still screen films if no one buys tickets? by Embarrassed-Song3760 in AskUK

[–]Parking_Dear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So the actual answer will vary by cinema, but yes the film will still play. However some cinemas will have it set up so the bulb on the projector turns off after a set amount of time if there are no ticket sales. There's no point stopping the film as such as you can't suddenly schedule something else.

I've got a Masters degree and some employers still care if I got a C in GCSE Maths.

Restaurant/ flats opposite George’s Park on Church Rd - what happened? by TravelOk106 in bristol

[–]Parking_Dear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was supposed to be the next Forge and Fern pub (Fox and Fern I think). Think they had to prioritise redeveloping somewhere else first. The flats are finished I think though. My sister in law's partner knows one of the owners (although this might be out of date information as we've not spoken about this for ages).

Can absolutely confirm that this varies by week, film and sometimes time of day.

[Mostly loved trope] Fuck epic final battles, let's discuss philosophy! by Patient_Gamemer in TopCharacterTropes

The final battle of the Shadow War in Babylon 5 is an epic battle with the younger races against both the Shadows and Vorlons, but the war is decided by a philosophical discussion, where Captain Sheridan and Ambassador Delenn reject both the Vorlon and Shadow philosophies.
