      Thanks for that…..

      Warning: Cinemas like to offer discount vouchers like this during times when they expect sales to be poor because there are fewer popular movies coming out.

      So go for it, but make sure there's something you want to watch between 8th October and 20th November:

      Cool story bro.

      Just needed some more dragons and that..

      no. the booking fee doesn't apply if you surrender the e-voucher at the box office

    "Get in quick, as tickets are bound to sell out fast!"

    Can they really .."sell out" ??

  • DEvok on 27/09/2013 - 16:40

    Telstra $10 tickets come out way better. There's a booking fee for these tickets, unlike telstra, these presage tickets also have to charge for 3d and vmax!!

    • Mitchh on 27/09/2013 - 16:58
      +1

      This is still $1.50 cheaper than Telstra if only watching 2D, bying tickets at cinema.

      If you buy online, can you go straight in at the cinemas, or do you still have to redeem a normal ticket using the printout?

    • Trance N Dance on 27/09/2013 - 18:04

      These are still 40 cents cheaper than the Telstra deal with the booking fee included…

  • kolorijo on 27/09/2013 - 16:42

    thank you op!

    ******BEWARE: Not Valid for Village Cinemas*******

    I purchased 7 tickets without knowing, since it claims on Wikipedia that they are redeemable at Village:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_Cinemas
    "Village Cinemas is the Victorian equivalent of Event or Greater Union, and all interstate ticket discounts/coupons are traditionally also valid at Village Cinemas"

    Too bad I didn't wait otherwise would have seen the next Deal

      Doctor who 50th Anniversary will be shown at most event cinema's at same time as ABC, be worth it for that.

      • zaphy on 28/09/2013 - 01:36

        that would possibly count as a "special event". (I know the Doctor Who screenings earlier this year counted as such)

      • Fobsessive on 28/09/2013 - 13:57

        The 50th is on November 23 while these tickets expire on the 20th.

    The only thing that doesn't drive me in because the expire dates of these tickets, there's just not enough months to make the most of these tickets, 6/10 of these movies are horrible. the good stuff just finished and the rest are end of year.

  • shrapse on 27/09/2013 - 20:27

    Wow, same price as the everyday price at the local Cineplex cinemas which are also tenfold better :/

    • zaphy on 28/09/2013 - 01:36

      yep, and even cheaper at Cineplex on budget days…

    • ItsMeAgro on 28/09/2013 - 11:11

      Queenslander?

      This is less than half price for NSW :(

    • ItsMeAgro on 28/09/2013 - 11:12

      That's why they're doing the deal within those dates: not much on.

    Meh, as stated by a few others they always do this deal in the quiet months when crap all good movies are coming out (save for 1 or 2 usually). I'll pass - especially since I can get $6 tickets All Day everyday at my local Cineplex :-)

      Where is this mystical $6 cinema?

        Somewhere on the Gold Coast.

        Cineplex Nerang, Gold Coast. If you like their Facebook page they give you the $6 deal (all the time, no conditions). Go there all the time :-) They have an awesomely cheap candy bar as well!

          I think I might actually buy popcorn/drinks/snacks at the movies occasionnally if it wasn't 10 times reasonable prices.

    Does anyone know whether these tickets work for movies in the Japanese Film Festival? Or is that considered "special events"?

    • ItsMeAgro on 29/09/2013 - 16:27

      There's a Japanese film festival?

    Also note these are not valid in Melbourne City. This wasn't mentioned in the post and I didn't know until I read the terms and conditions (after buying 4 tickets). Pretty dodgy if you ask me. Is there any way I can off load these things?!

    • bluerinse on 04/10/2013 - 18:02

      I just sent them an email requesting a refund, hope it works

      "Hi Event

      I purchased these tickets online recently, and it appears the Terms and Conditions have changed for the tickets to not be redeemable at the Melbourne City theatre.

      Seeing as it is the only Event Cinema branch in Victoria where I live, I would like to request a refund for all 7 tickets, totalling $59.50
      The unique PayPal Transaction ID is:
      3C**************00F

      Thanks for your assistance"

      • bluerinse on 11/10/2013 - 17:06

        They have refunded in full!
