    . Voucher is only available for sessions screening from Monday to Thursday from 1st February, 2017 to 1st March, 2017.

    Too restrictive…

    I've revoked my vote.

    • +3

      me too. Thanks for highlighting that… although, restriction is only for gold class tickets, not standard tickets.

    • +4

      Note: this is only for the GoldClass tickets

    • I thought you didn't go out on Friday/Saturday/Sunday anyway JV!

    From the T&Cs:

    Voucher is only available for sessions screening from Monday to Thursday from 1st February, 2017 to 1st March, 2017.

    So keep in mind these should only be purchased if you're keen on the movies released this Feb. I almost bought a few tickets until I looked up the Feb releases and couldn't find anything interesting.

      Same.

      I almost got some too, but wouldn't use them Mon-Thu

      • none of the cinemas are showing it as a 'coming soon' film yet.

        • True. I might've jumped the gun. Ive tried searching everywhere on the net for an official Australian release date but only found this :(

        • @rawm:

          yeah I've been waiting for it to appear.. not sure what the deal is.

      • Yeah we aren't getting it anymore according to an article on Gizmodo, well not this month anyway it does seem.

        Um, The Great Wall… :P

        • Haha I actually do want to watch that movie. But nothing else :)

        • +1

          @JahjaMan: I'm almost ashamed to admit that I'll likely watch it too. ;)

      • I'd go see Hidden Figures. I think there was a deal on free tix for that or something on this site. Missed out.

      Wait so no NSW locations?

    • No QLD either? There's an Event cinemas near me but is this deal only for Village cinemas, NOT "Event/Village"?

      • +1

        Deal was originally only posted for Village. Event was only added 10mins ago

        • I read this as it will not include Event Cinemas? is this incorrect? Because I bought two and it doesn't appear to be working xD

        • +1

          @SpotTheOzzie: There was a separate link for Event tickets. I bought 4 and they have all worked.

        • @Smulder:

          ..D'oh!!!!!!

  • +2

    Can we please change the title to indicate the month of Feb restriction.

    That being said. Any good movies coming out in Feb?

    • Title changed.

      • +17

        haven't heard of that movie

    • That being said. Any good movies coming out in Feb?

      Beauty and the Beast - remake with real people - starting 23 Feb, could be worth it.
      Only thing, since there is only 1 week to use, wonder if these standard vouchers work if they classify a new movie as "No Free List".

      • +1

        Well, they're not free, and there's nothing mentioned in the T&Cs, so should be fine.

      • +1

        When I looked it up Beauty and the Beast is only out 23 MARCH…

        • Hey you are right. I made a mistake. Thanks for that.

  • Any good movies in feb?

    • doesn't look like it at all, i'm passing

      • +3

        Really looking forward to John Wick 2! Loved the first movie.

    • +4

      January-February are the best time of the year for films in Australia. All the Oscar nominated films etc

      La La Land (will win Best Picture and is a fantastic film)
      Moonlight (Haven't seen yet but the only chance to upset La La Land)
      Manchester by the Sea (Also haven't seen but highly acclaimed)
      Lion, Hidden Figures, Fences, Silence should all be good.
      Same with Jackie which came out today.

      Thanks OP, will buy a few of these for sure!

      • +1

        Only one or two of these appear on the coming soon section of the Village website. I was looking to use the vouchers for John Wick 2 or La La Land but neither are on there…

        Edit: Never mind, I see that La La Land has already been released, that's why it wasn't showing up in search.

      • +3

        I can confirm Silence, Manchester by the Sea, and Moonlight are brilliant.

        T2: Trainspotting could be worth watching too.

        • +1

          How have you seen them? Are they available for viewing online/torrents?

        • I hear silence is good

    • As per response to previous commenter, maybe Beauty and the Beast - remake with real people - starting 23 Feb ?

      But since there is only 1 week to use, I wonder if these standard vouchers work work, if a movie is classified as "No Free List"; as often the case when they are new. Anyone knows? Thanks.

      • Ignore comment - my mistake - Beauty and the Beast is out on 23 Mar.

    • The great wall. Trailer looks interesting

    The village site has slowed to a crawl!

    Assuming all hollywood movies will be on both cinemas, then "50 shades darker"?

    Man…i was going to stock up for Marvel, beauty and the beast and so on…

  • Perfect for valentine's day ?
    Edit : Just read the T&C. Not me me then :(

    • Although I ask if they exclude Valentine's Day as the entire day, or exclude them from being used on any events held on Valentine's Day?

    Movies are free @ home.

    • +1

      They aren't free at home.

      • Kinda off topic, and not disagreeing in context here, but have you guys checked out the new & improved SBS On Demand app?

        Holy shit there's some impressive content on there, not just indie & international either, some really recent mainstream stuff…I kid you not! For a free service, it's truly outstanding, and Chromecasts nicely! :)

    • Only if you're watching sh*tty cams. Screener season has been weak this year.

    • Same here! Have been keeping an eye out for discounted gold class tickets just for Logan.

  • Bought! Thanks!

    • +1

      I've had my credit card charged but haven't got any tickets yet. Hopefully just slow processing!

      • Hopefully! I got the tickets immediately sent. Maybe hold onto the transaction number just in case.

      • Perhaps check your spam folder. Sometimes that happens.

        • Thanks guys. The site crashed as I clicked submit, so didn't get a transaction number. Lucky I checked banking account so I didn't try to re-submit again. Not in spam folder, I'll follow up later when the site is running nicer haha.

        • +1

          @Athomas:
          I called village for mine, their payment system crashed, if it's pending on bank statement but you didn't get an emailed ticket or confirmation page on web after checkout then they'll refund/release the funds. You need to checkout again now as site is back online

  • Limited to certain States I believe

        stupid media company, losses 5 million due to a late release in australia because people downloaded the movie, and then they are going to do it again, they dont learn. i hope they die in a fire.

        • +4

          Ah ok got it.

          On an unrelated note, I dont understand why movies cant be released on the same day through the world. Its not like they are shipping reels anymore.

        • +2

          @hashtagbargain
          Because distributors are normally local. There are plenty of them and sometimes they acquire the rights for certain movies at different times or events to other countries in the world (for example, an American distributor can buy a movie in Cannes, while Another one from a different country can buy them in Toronto).
          Moreover, some of them have a friendly relationship and they avoid competition to try to get as much share of the box office as possible.
          Another reason is the calendar. A perfect example of this is Moana (and every other Disney Boxing Day release). Those animated features open for Thanksgiving in the states due to their family nature, however, over here, since there is no Thanksgiving holidays, they open in the next holiday period which is Christmas.

          I hope that helped you understand it a bit :)

        • +3

          @Nachotroncoso: Fair enough, but I think in the age of Netflix and instant everything - perhaps this sentiment of dating movie releases to calendar days may be a tad too antiquated.

        • @hashtagbargain:
          If you think about it, even Netflix has different rights depending on the region. In the states, they have Sherlock, whereas here, the last season is exclusively available through Stan. It all depends on who has the rights and what they think the best plan to release the film is.

    Sneaking suspicion Event Cinemas will do the same

    They've been teasing that they'll be doing a good deal today, and obviously Event & Village are linked

    • +1

      Ur right! They did! Just got an email from Event Cinemas,$8 normal tix for February

      • Cheers yep just got it too, added to OP to save getting another post for it ;)

  • An error occurred while attempting to complete the purchase ..I am not sure why I can't purchase..tried it 4 times already. :(

    • Same here, tried multiple times, and 5 transactions registered with my cc.
      Anybody knows a village number to call?

      • Any failed checkout will but "pending" on your bank statement, I called and they said they'll release the funds and not charge.
        1300555400

  • +1

    After hitting 'Pay' I got an error message "something went wrong.."
    No email confirmation, but my CC has a pending charge against it.

    Village really struggling with this interwebs thing.

    :-|

    • I had the same. Tried a few times and eventually got one confirmation email with the vouchers, but my card now has 3 charges against it.
      For anyone trying to purchase, I wouldn't try again if you get the error message after submitting payment info.

      • Village said payment system went down, they'll refund/release the pending automatically but can take a few business days depending on your bank.
        You can call them to confirm 1300555400

        • +1

          I got pending 11 times… Rip me

  • site is kill. also, are there many decent movies out now / due to be released in the near future?

  • What about Xxx Return of Xander Cage featuring Vincent Diesel and Donnie Yen

      • sold out doesn't count.

        • +1

          Thanks for letting me know. :)
          I've marked it as expired now.

          To the comment negger - you could have flagged the other deal as expired (in addition to your neg, if you really needed to).

          In hindsight I should have written my comment as "it's not worth more than $4.48". :)

  • xXx, Resident Evil, fifty shades darker, great wall

  • +1

    Haven't paid for a gold class ticket for a few years now - they come free (2 every 3 months) with my Simply Energy plan. It's a decent tariff too.

  • +1

    The people who go to Village Knox on cheap tuesday ruined my star wars rogue one experience, noisy chatter and noisy eating everywhere. I'll never go back

    • I actually had a surprisingly great cheap Tuesday experience (in Gold Class however.)
      Normally would avoid though.

  • +1

    IMPORTANT!

    ** Voucher is only available for sessions screening from Monday to Thursday from 1st February, 2017 to 1st March, 2017. **

  • I understood that gold class is Monday to Thursday, the $8 regular tickets don't seem to have restrictions. Also, it says instant delivery which is good.

    • The $8 tickets are date restricted. Effectively only useful in the month of Feb 2017.

  • Thanks op, bought.

    Opening Feb: Lion, Hidden Figures.

    (Please no-one support that racist white washed BS 'The great wall'.)

    Hoping still playing by Feb: Arrival, Moana, Jackie, Rogue One. (Already seen La La Land.)

    • +2

      You can get free tix for Lion! Showfilmfirst

      • +1

        Thanks. Yeah I got the email this afternoon and already registered for Astor theatre this coming Tuesday :)

  • Event Cinemas is doing the same Shit, $8 tickets for February as well!! Haha I prefer Event Cinemas

  • Note that Event Cinemas is doing 1 Feb - 28 Feb, so anyone planning to use the tickets on 1 Mar may miss out! Also the standard can be used Mon-Sun however GC is only Mon-Thu.

    Just got my tickets in an email. 2 x GC and 2 x standard
