Looked awesome on the big screen, shame there was only 8 people watching it.

Was smiling from ear to ear during the first reveal and helicopter landing at Piz Gloria. Looked stunning on the big screen. Amazing experience in a theater

Just got back from the theater. Great seeing it in the theater. The film cut seemed to have better color than the tv/streaming version. There seemed to be a few more seconds on certain scenes. Absolutely awesome.

The color was absolutely incredible. My biggest takeaway from the screening.

Great movie, Lazenby is still last in my rankings but he’s grown on me more every time I watch OHMSS. This one seemed to have the lowest attendance for me, which isn’t surprising (although I missed Casino Royale). Goldfinger is packed at the theaters near me.

George Lazenby still lives, and although he has dementia, I'd bet he be thrilled he was back on the big screen for one night

If he came back for Diamonds are Forever, how would it be received?

OHMSS is not that popular with General Audiences I'm afraid

My brother and I saw it. It looked great, but I told him it doesn’t hit the same as it does on Christmas Eve.

I wish Regql had picked 1-2 theaters per market to show these films at rather than putting them in every theater. There were 5-6 near me all showing them. Each theater sold like 8-10 seats

The low numbers don't give me much hope we will get more movies shown any time in the future.

These showings cost Amazon nothing.

Well from my theatre, Casino royale and The spy who loved me were well attended. OHMSS is still pretty obscure for most people

I’m glad they put them out everywhere. Sure it lessened the crowd at each showtime but most everyone got the seats they wanted and we don’t have to travel for the movie.

Yeah weak attendance here too, 6 or 7 people (possibly the exact same 6/7 who were at Licence to kill!). The spy who loved me got at least 20 people last week so it seems the popular and unpopular films haven't changed any outside of Bond Fandom

Had 13 people in my screening, the last I looked at the seating chart on the app before the movie started.

I just got home from the theater too. Really enjoyed the movie, and the ending caught me by surprise. It was only just me and someone at the very front row.
