If they think they will see anything near what the solicitors legal fees will be they are as thick as I suspect they are.
Riddled with self importance and main character syndrome.
Why do I feel that somewhere on the booking form it will state 4DX cinema experience not suitable for children under 12 and this will be the cinemas excuse
I’d do it just to fuck with cineworld to be honest.
If they left before the film began, how do they know they were in the right screen room? Is it a one screen cinema there?
Cineworld are a terrible company and historically terrible to staff.
Sue away.
The first thing to check on a theatrically exhibited trailer is the certificate in the corner. You can have a U certificate trailer for a film expected to receive a higher rating. The BBFC certifies trailers separately.
However, there are no U certificate rated trailers for M3GAN 2.0 (15) or Jurassic World: Rebirth (12A). This information is available on the BBFC website. Trailers must not be rated higher than the film they are attached to and Lilo & Stitch is rated U.
Others have said that Cineworld 4DX screenings have different age requirements than other screenings but this doesn’t override anything. Certificates exist for a reason, it’s reasonable to expect that a U certificate film will be safe for all audiences.
While I don’t think this was anything to sue over, she is correct that Cineworld has broken the rules here. If a parent looks at the listings and sees a U certificate then they should not have to go looking through T&Cs to check whether there is some exemption to that.
Stuff like this is so bizarre to me because of course that’s something that’s wrong, I just can’t imagine having enough free time on my hands to take it to the papers and sue
Twitch was showcasing 2 horror film trailers recently and I too was surprised it was aired on amazons site since it was quite grim, child dies on a trampoline iirc. Either way I did not appreciate the trash trailers trying to be scary and I’m sure this mum felt the same, good for her.
Good for her. Who knows how long Cineworld has been doing this to make some extra money. These companies think they can get away with anything. They don’t care about the wellbeing of children that see that horrible stuff, they just want too make as much money as possible.
Serves you right for going to see that monstrosity!
Suing them is obviously too far but I’ve had similar problems with Odeon. My daughter refused to go to the cinema for years because of inappropriate adverts show before the Gruffalo.
The one that stood out was extremely life like Dinosaurs in a advert about climate change.
Ha – this happened to me when I was a kid.
Got taken to see “A Bugs Life” and the trailers started and the audience slowly cottoned on that the reel was definitely **not** for A Bugs Life.
Pretty sure a staff member stood at the front of the audience to apologise.
Then we all got offered a free box of popcorn and they put the correct reel on for us.
My sister and I were delighted with the freebies!
And ya know what, no-one sued, we all moved on with our lives completely un traumatised and unaffected.
In fact, quite the opposite, I’ve just had a good dark chuckle to myself remembering what happened.
Suing for something like this is gold-digging and pathetic.
Be a better place without this kind of person. Her mentality is vulgar.
I cannot imagine seeing this as anything other than an amusing anecdote. I suppose part of the problem is that corporations encourage complaints by quite often offering financial compensation because let’s be honest, that’s likely what she’s after.
How can you sue for this?
If a horror trailer started playing surely you’d walk out and find a manager and just complain. Maybe get your tickets refunded and an apology.
I’m all for taking on the big dogs, but is this really Sue-worthy?
The cinema apologised and offered them a replacement and it wasn’t enough in her eyes. Can’t help but feel it’s a money grab. Google her name and occupation and her instagram name and it all should click why metro have went to the trouble of posting an article on the situation
Headline is misleading. It doesn’t say anything in the article about suing, it says she is making a formal complaint to the company and the regulator to ensure it doesn’t happen again. She is doing that via a solicitor, perhaps because they’ll have more clout than her doing it as just a mum. They are going against rules/laws set by the regulator
