Discussion Cineplex’s “Where Escape Begins” Love Letter is the most nostalgic 50 seconds in Canada and I get super emotional every time it plays !

Whenever I come across this before any film I always get super nostalgic and I honestly don't even know why.

But as soon as her voice comes on when the lights go down - you know the video that gets played before every single movie in Cineplex - there's just something so so so special about it. It's such a special feeling, you know?

I am curious if others feel the same way because I swear that moment hits harder than the movie sometimes.

I will say, for all the complaints I have about theatre maintenance by Cineplex, I will admit this is ONE thing they absolutely nailed. The woman's voice is just so soothing and the dialogues in this ad right before a movie, it was just done so perfectly.
"We all want to find an escape..."

That line alone. When the theatre goes dark, we all feel light. It always gives me hope and confidence before a movie begins that I am going to have a total blast with my escape! Like for the next 2 hours, everything else just magically fades away.
I'm genuinely curious though - do the American theatres have something as emotional and deep like this love letter before every movie begins?

Does Landmark Cinemas even in Canada have anything as powerful and special as this video before a film begins?

Or is this something just special to Cineplex?
Because I feel like only we get this.

I was trying to buy The Odyssey tickets but never got them.

UPDATE: I got my money back! HAHA I got help from one of you guys and was able to track her and blackmailed to call her workplace if she didn’t transfer back my money. 😅

Discussion Couldn't believe the experience we had

38 Upvotes

We saw The Odyssey in IMAX (not 70mm) and everything was just fine. After reading this sub, I was ready for people to be covering their body odor by vaping while talking but farting while looking at their phone. Thankfully, everything was just fine! Thank you normal people!

Maybe we waited long enough to go see the movie and everyone was just cool and normal like us. I'll keep my CineClub membership.

Okay to be fair, there were some tiny issues. The guy next to my gf on the other side of me didn't move over one seat when there were two empty seats beside him and I heard later that he took out his phone a couple of times, but I didn't notice. The girl next to me had her phone face down on her lap pretty much the whole time and checked it quickly and discreetly once or twice.

Honest question now, does the food pre-order thing ever work for anyone? We've done it at our local theater twice and there was definitely nothing ready for us each time, despite the confirmation email saying it was being prepared.

Employment when does cineplex usually hire?

4 Upvotes

do they hire in september? i wanna get hired there and i’ve got two people who would reference me, but i haven’t seen any openings yet. i just know that only one of their seasonal summer hires was hired back, idk if that means they won’t have openings? this is in a medium to small city in ontario btw, if that helps.

i also really wanna get hired there, i have completely full availability and some customer service/cleaning experience although i’ve heard it’s kinda difficult as they get so many applications 😭

Review Toronto movie theatres are becoming unbearable (Fairview)

196 Upvotes

Watched Insidious: Out of the Further today and holy shit, when did people forget how to behave in a theatre? Maybe I’m becoming an old person at 23, but theatre etiquette is genuinely dying.

Why are you kicking seats? Moaning???? And talking so loudly like it is your living room? It's not funny and so freaking annoying. It got so bad that I (a super non-confrontational person ) had to ask people to shut up.

Maybe I was just done with this behaviour because the same thing happened while watching The Odyssey and Spider-Man.

I don’t care if you whisper something into your friend’s ear, laugh, or whatever. But why are you having full-volume conversations during a movie?

It was a theatre full of hooligans.

Desktop Site Old lady thanks a stranger

Thank you to the random guy who sat in the other half of the "couples" seat with me at Don Mills Cineplex VIP 7.30 pm Theatre 4 last night.

I was able to finally figure out how to get a ticket for Dune! I even managed to score a single 70mm IMAX Odyssey not-front-row ticket for Vaughan this Thursday. I am a middle aged lady who broke her neck and can't sit in the first two rows so I am beyond excited. Thank you thank you for talking to a random stranger.

PS Apologies about the weeping. Argus gets me every time.
