In Reply to: DOGMA BANNED FROM ODEON CINEMAS IN THE UK!?!?! posted by SurlyDuck on November 14, 1999 at 10:14:51:
: Hi there!
: I was talking to a guy in a certain large comic book outlet in Leeds (England) and he told me that Odeon cinemas (amongst others) would not be showing Dogma. He also told me that the only way to see it would be to find an arthouse cinema which would be showing it sometime in January (not boxing day). Please can someone confirm or deny this distressing news for me as soon as possible. You're welcome to mail me: jameswind@hotmail.com
: From the clips and reviews I've seen so far DOGMA KICKS ASS!! but now I must return to my TV to watch my Clerks, Mallrats and Chasing Amy videos over and over and over......
: -James
sounds to me like this guy was yanking your chain...
it's definitely still opening Boxing Day (Dec 26) - same day as that other fantasy comedy ensemble flick starring janeane garfolo MYSTERY MEN - and as for any Odeon "ban", that would be beyond ludicrous. i've no idea where this guy heard that rumour, but i'll bet you any money it's a LIE!
