I'm not sure which Leicester Square cinema it will be showing at, but go for either the Empire or the Odeon. The Empire, screen one, is enormous, and the Odeon is huge and old fashioned (while state-of-the-art). Can't go wrong with either one!

It's playing at the Odeon Leicester Sq; this is the nicest theatre in London so it's a no brainer.
You can book tickets now, it'll seem expensive but this theatre is the true home of Bond (the long gone Pavillion aside).
For years I saw every Bond there but since I moved to LA it's become a lot tougher, tho I did see CR there.

I booked my tickets for Universal City in LA almost 2 weeks ago.
Try and catch it in IMAX, looks like the way to see it!

Passing a bar that I like on the way to the shops, I noticed that they are having a James Bond night tomorrow from 7pm.

Will be popping in after my viewing, which starts at 9pm.

With great regret, it looks like I won't be able to go until Saturday, as most of my friends are busy on Friday evening and I'm working all day.

I might just be sneaky and go with my father and brothers on Friday night, if we can still get tickets (which we have been known to do in the past).

In 12 hours' time, I'm due to be strapped into my BFI IMAX seat and hyperventilating. Can't believe the moment's here. :)

1hr 54mins to go. I don't really know what to do with myself! It's the first Bond I am taking my Daughter to..and despite her 12 year old nonchelance, I can tell she is getting excited too. I'm praying for a well behaved audience, decent projection, correct aspect ratio, house lights fully turned off (none of which are a guarantee at my local flea pit!).
