Cinema in velvet by happypat

Cinema in velvet

A friend & I tried out one of the three new cinemas in the Flower Bowl tonight.
It's something else isn't it?
Only holds about 30 people I would think, we had a choice of two seater sofas with little tables or chairs with foot stools.
It was very pink & velvety but masses of legroom.
A glass of wine in our hand it was a very luxurious experience!

We saw Mama Mia again & it was a much better feel in this cinema than the last one, glad I saw it again.

Three good things:
1. We are so lucky to have such facilities available!
2. I collected £40 worth of sausages from the local butchers, have used my auction bid from #thumbsupforcharlie
3. My replacement phone has arrived & Lydia, bless her, has tuned me in again!
Boo
that is really very very red! 40 pounds worth of sausages! WOW!

Wow that looks very comfy.. plenty of room for dancing in the isles...

Wow. That's fine as long as you're okay with velvet. My girls would run a mile! Looks very plush!
Good to have young people who are confident with technology. Enjoy!

Looks very comfortable. And a good image.

@julzmaioro Yes but no one did sadly!

I remember one lounge like this somewhere! It was too nice to sit there and we didn't want to leave! A special treat. Hope the sausages are good or you are doomed eat them for the next six months!

@sarah19 i do like velvet as it happens but can imagine it's not everyone's cup of tea, it was very plush & actually pink!

@mave It was very comfy, just like watching at home!

Love the warm effects - this reminds me of our own small and intimate Gecko cinema in Motueka - comfy old sofas and armchairs and coffee delivered.

Waw what a cosy and comfy vision in pink ! -- I would even like to watch a film in cinema like that ! Ooh I think I would choose the armchair with the foot stool !

What a great way to see a movie, however, far too comfortable for me, I would probably fall asleep and miss the movie!
August 10th, 2018  
Oh my! How nice! We have movie houses similar to this, but not in velvet. They do make watching a movie so enjoyable!

A very elegant way to enjoy the movie. Reminds me of film nights in the Officers Mess when we were in the RAF.

What luxury! I’ve never seen anything like it

Pretty posh looking.

Very nice shot

This really has been done beautifully, hasn't it? What a relaxing venue for a movie. I MUST see Mama Mia 2.......I so loved the first one.

@casablanca I liked it better the second time around. Better screen & view here but I still missed Meryl Streep & it was so much better for her being there for a while.

@snaphappi Yes I think you have cinemas like it in NZ & we do have odd ones too but this one was sumptuous & very new! Hope it stays in good nick & no one spills anything!
August 11th, 2018  
@beryl That would be a problem & my eyes did go a couple of times Beryl!
August 11th, 2018  
@onewing Very personal, I felt I should be chatting to the couple next to us although they were quite a way away!

@taffy @jgpittenger @louannwarren @judithdeacon @bkbinthecity

Looks wonderful

This is wonderful Pat. Do you take your own wine? My son used to go to a cinema in London where they had sofa's but you took your own food and wine.

Love the wall painting. Very luxurious space.
