Bond is Back. But when will you be seeing him? How many of you will be seeing Skyfall on the opening day in your respective countries? What time have you booked for? Midnight showings?

Personally, I have my tickets sitting in front of me for Friday 26th October, 9pm. I'd have go an earlier showing, but I wasn't sure when I was working.

My first showing is slated for 12pm, Friday 26th October at the Odeon BFI IMAX at Waterloo.

Then going to a conventional screening in Kingston with family later that evening. The first time I've watched a film twice in the same day.

Hope it's good, eh...

Not particularly. I believe it might be the first full IMAX public screening in London though. Extra treat really.

Well I'm planning on going to the 11:59pm showing Nov.8th with my sister and brother in law who are fans of the series. Probably a mid-day showing with some friends on Nov. 9th and finally an early morning IMAX showing on Nov. 10th with my father.

3 showings in 3 days? Dedication! Wish I could afford that, but at £8 a ticket at a crappy little cinema :( (That's $12.85 to you yanks, $12.60 to you Canadians and $12.57 to the Aussies out there)

The movie doesn't come out until November 22 here in Australia. I've got work and want family and friends to see it with me. So I'm going on Saturday November 24 in IMAX.

That's cheap compared to over here! The "cheap ticket" at my local is almost $11 and your most expensive IMAX showing is only $2.13 more than my full price ticket! - Using Google currency converter

I read that Lincoln release is limited and will be released again ........Bond will win but Lincoln could do well in North american more likely

Going to the midnight show on November 8th at the Loews Lincoln Square in Manhattan- the only TRUE Imax theater outside of the Museum of Natural History (I don't count those converted theaters). Can't wait to see Deakins' cinematography on a screen 70 feet wide and 50 feet high! The fact that its the first Bond film presented in IMAX is a big deal for me- and for alot of other people too- I anticipate a huge line. I usually wait a week until things calm down at the IMAX as I did with the Dark Knight Rises , but for Skyfall, I want to see it ASAP to avoid major spoilers. Its hard enough fighting my own curiousity.

November 8th at 12:07am in a reserved seat. I despise any and everyone east of Newfoundland.

The closer we get to the film's release, the more I can't help but think what an utterly stupid [censored]ing plan that 2-week gap is.

The sad part is they've opened a large window to allow some to watch it in piss-poor quality via pirated copies.

I really have to buy 2 IMAX tickets very soon. If/when I do get them, they'll be Nov 8 (hopefully). I plan on taking my little brother because I remember he was very excited when his dad took him to see a movie and he saw the teaser for Skyfall. "There's gonna be a NEW James Bond movie! I think it's called Skyfall 007."

If I can't get them that day, I'll go on the 10th at a conventional theater.

I'm still aiming for an IMAX screening before it's out of theaters.

Well, pre-sale tickets have gone on sale where I am but, I have yet to pick some up...
I plan to attend the midnight screening in early November when it's released over here and will be loving every minute of it.

May have to stay away from CBn once it is released on the 26th though! Coming to "browse" would only add to the torture.

It comes out 1st November here in Thailand, which also happens to be my friend's birthday so we're going to see it for his birthday. I've told all my friends in advance that I've stayed spoiler free for this movie so please don't ask me any questions during the movie.

Bit annoyed there's no earlier screenings, but I've gone for the earliest and first showing at 1pm, Friday 26th October at the ODEON in Basingstoke. Just me and Bond, no-one else is coming with me for this event film! I agree for UK viewers, tickets prices aren't what they were and it costs a small fortune now. I did 'Casino Royale' twice in a day (also 'Die Another Day'!) but it was far cheaper and didn't feel you were selling a kidney with each ticket purchase!

Then in the evening I'll return at 7pm with my friend to absorb it all again. And hopefully a couple more after than during the week...!


I hope that one day a Bond film can help me beat my record of film viewings which was 'Star Wars Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith' seen 10 times. But that was when I was back in Uni with far less responsibilities than I have now...which is annoying. Oh well, you never know...!

IMAX though, Bond at IMAX! To the max!
