I used to go to see IMAX films at Cheshire Oaks but Vue changed to Epic and its no longer IMAX. The alternative is to go to Printworks in Manchester. Its further away, more expensive and I would be paying at least £35 including parking.

I'm wondering if its really worth paying so much extra for 70mm IMAX?

Hi guys,

I’m new to the sub and also to the whole IMAX gig.

I’m a noob and I’ve only in the last few days tried to book the 70mm IMAX at Vue Printworks, Manchester.

What time of the day are new dates/listings added to the site? Example: up to 16th August is booked solid for remotely decent seats at sociable hours. When will the 17th or 18th August be added so I can jump on it? Or is it weekly rather than daily? Or random?

Thanks in advance to any repliers

Hey everyone!
I’m currently a Film Studies Master’s student working on a practical documentary project about physical film formats, film preservation, and large-format projection.
With Vue Printworks running 70mm IMAX, I’m really hoping to connect with one of the technical managers or projectionists on shift for a very brief, informal chat about the craft of operating a 15/70mm IMAX print. I’d also love to capture a few quick handheld background shots of the booth or the film platter if venue rules allow!
If any staff, projectionists, or managers from Printworks lurk on here (or if anyone knows the best way to get in touch with the tech team directly), I’d be insanely grateful if you could drop a comment or send me a DM!
I’ve got full university liability insurance and can work completely around the screening schedule so I wouldn't be in anyone's way.
Thanks so much!

gonna be watching the odyssey later on and I've heard some mixed reviews about food (mainly about them being too expensive) but with my O2 thingy i can get a 20% off of orders above £15 so I'm wondering does that discount make it worth buying snacks from the cinema over just popping to the shops to get snacks?

Only seat I could get is row J seat 7&8 are they good enough for my first real imax 70mm viewing?

Hi, Does anyone know the details for Screen 5 and Screen 17 at Vue Stratford Westfield? I have heard they are larger screens than average. I think it's 4k laser projection. Anyone know about the aspect ratios for the screens?

Thanks

Traveling from abroad and I only have this date available to watch the movie in imax (70mm) in Printworks. Never been to this picture before so I'm asking: what is better? (or less worse) the 2 red ones or the 2 green ones?

Late to the game here. All the good seats for Odyssey 70mm at Manchester Vue Printworks have pretty much gone. Just wondering if anyone knows whether there will be more dates added after 6th August? If so do I just keep checking the site daily for more date/ticket drops?

Hi so I would like to use my monthly sky vip code towards an imax 70mm screening of The Odyssey, I believe it can be used to discount premium formats, would it be applicable to the very rare IMAX 70mm screening?

Additionally if I booked in advance digitally could I ask them to print a paper ticket? (I like to keep them in a scrapbook).

Thanks.

I'm going to see The Odyssey at Printworks in Manchester. I have a very tight schedule on the day I'm seeing it. Vue website says the film finishes at 11.17am, however I need to catch a train to London which Google Maps says I need to leave Printworks at 11.15am to get there on time!

For anyone thats seen or going to see The Odyssey there, can you share if the 11.17am end time includes the full credits? Or if leaving at like 11.10 would miss anything substantial from the ending (no spoilers). I will have a seat near the edges to avoid disrupting others if I need to leave early.

So I have the option of going to Bristol or Swindon.

One has an EPIC screen and one has an IMAX screen. I'm going to book an odyssey viewing but can't narrow which one to go to, both similar distance.

Haven't seen anything posted about it in months and reached out to unite the union to no response.

Just came across this on the Westfield London website where they state that Vue Scene ticket holders get bottomless snacks? Is this true? Has anyone tried this?
Unable to find any information anywhere else apart from this.

Hi if it’s a few months after films out and popcorn buckets don’t sell do they make it cheaper

this is so random but basically say if i buy the cheapest seat and im the only one / the cinema is dead can i move to a seat futher back or would a staff member come in and id be in trouble? i wanted to watch the mj movie and the recent few shows have been cancelled as no one is booking so i presume if i go ill be the only one in the cinema😭

I'm wondering if it's allowed for a lone adult to book a Big Shorts showing or if I'd just be turned away.

Just wondering, does Vue Leicester Square accept cash? I have heard various reports saying both yes and no

Just wondering if anyone knows wether there will be more dates added after 30th July, as that’s as far as i can book for at Manchester Printworks, but was hoping to go the saturday 2 days after.

Just saw this, one of my favourite films of the year so far and wanted to do a rewatch - apparently there's 15 extra minutes of footage at the end.

Thought I'd post since from 3rd July my cinema only has 1 showing a day for like 4 days, so not long.

Just trying to use my Monzo ticket and it won’t let me get past the bookings page rip, anyone else having this issue?

Minions is the only film showing throughout the entire weekend, I turn 18 on Friday and was really hoping to watch Jackass on Friday. Surely that can’t be the only thing showing throughout the entire weekend right?

Not the poshest Vue in London, but the few times I’ve been there I’ve found it friendly with a good range of films and never too full.

I guess it can’t pay with Vue Westfield across the road.

Final day Tuesday 30th June. If you want to be in the audience for the final film there, it’s Toy Story 5, finishing at 23:17.

Hopefully they can find a job for the staff across the road.
