The relationship between newspapers and movie theatre chains

[dewline]

This relationship does not seem to be what it once was.

A reminder of that fact was driven home tonight when I went to Silver City Gloucester to see Avengers again. Based on the newspaper listings, I expected to be able to see a 6:50 PM showing.

Didn't happen. The only showing available tonight will be at 9:50 PM. Those of you who already know my transportation specifics can figure out the problem with that.

The temptation to go into rant mode is there...but, no. There are bigger issues to rant about than this. I'll wait for it to get to Rainbow or Mayfair Orléans.

Don't forget, because of the print medium, the theatre may have put in the info weeks ago, and many thing may have changed between then and now. Also, there is any number of people who may have made a mistake.

That kept happening for a while between the cinema I usually go to and the paper. The cinema insisted they sent in the right listings, but the paper kept running the wrong information. It sounded like one person was consistently erring.

Something to look into...
