So excited about this. It was a great final time for me to see The World is Not Enough and now the OpenAir cinema on Sydney Harbour is showing DAD on Feb. 10. If you haven't been I really recommend it, watching the movie with Sydney Harbour as the backdrop. Nice photo op too of the gunbarrel looking relatively the same size as the Sydney harbour bridge.
Get in early, last time TWINE was sold out and I had to grovel to get tickets. Perfect for my 007'th

Darn! I hope we get something like that in Melbourne! I think we might, but I'll have to look in to it. On my way to do that

I wonder what the sound is going to be like?
Then there's the problem of ambient noise and insects!
And what if it rains!?

What I like about us here at the Aussie forums is we're positive ppl.
Clearly you're the exception dude!
Sound isn't DTS but its fine.
Insects
For TWINE fireworks went off during the pipeline sequence in the park next door - celebrating it cause it was my favourite scene. Now thats cool.
If it rains you get wet and most leave. I actually stood with my umbrella through a rainstorm during Goldfinger at the Moonlight Cinema (a different one in sydney). Worth it.
One thing - bring lots of woolies. The fresh sea breeze is very fresh.

Big tip. If it is sold out they hold about 200 tickets at the box office to go on sale an hour or so before it starts. This is the only way i got TWINE tickets.
And miss frost, I know i'm always asking you but i'm quite serious this time - do you want to come with me? It's very difficult to get someone to go to bond with you at an outdoor cinema on a monday night...
Think about it!

Difficult to get someone to see Bond with me on a monday night? I think not! Dispite the fact that I'm furious cos it's sold out, I had to let 17 of ,my friends know, who were going to accompany me....
Do you have tickets Matt?

These tickets that go on sale beforehand, do you buy them at the cinema?
If I get some I just might see you there.

Yeah you go beforehand. For TWINE they went on sale at 6pm. I'll call them closer to the date and give an exact time.
You'll have to email me a pic so i know what you look like.

Curiousity killed the cat. Satisfaction brought it back.
Seek out that satisfaction.

Sydney isn't too far from the Coast, besides I have to get used to the trip for when I start Uni down there in March.
Oh, the box office opens at 6:30pm, so me and my friends should be hanging around by then. I might see you I might not, can't promise anything. Nothing personal, but meeting people I've only talked to over the internet is kind of scary.
I'm sooooooooooo excited! More Bond! It's going to be great!

MMM! How wrong I was. Shame, you can't see Bond in NSW at all now so its just 006 times for me, though 007 if you include my awesome bali dvd (shh).

I don't think anything from Bali could be classed as awesome! 
Besides, watching a DvD doesn't beat seeing it on an awesome outside screen, dodging bat poo, and getting home at around 2am the following day...
