Pre-Screening of Kung Fu Panda – 3D at Odeon Point Village

Perfect timing to take Soren as a treat as he has had a FULL week of receiving Dojo Points Every day – until 20 minutes before the school week ends, he got one negative point for “talking out of turn” surprise, surprise (well, not really but he as doing so well)!!  I still think he should be rewarded for such a good effort all week. Part of me is annoyed that that the teacher didn’t just talk with him and overlook putting the points chart to give him some added confidence that he could do it!   Can’t help but be slightly bitter about it.  We saw the preview for it a few weeks ago and we thought it would be great to see – especially in 3D.

It was a great movie – the kids really enjoyed it and so did Nils and I – some funny parts. The Odeon at Point Village cinema had a huge isense screen and as there was NO one else in there with us, we moved up to the front row of the premium seats.  After about 20 minutes there was about a dozen people scattered around, but it’s a great cinema, clean, easy to park (which is €2.00 for 4 hours with validation from the cinema), etc. 

As they are trying to stimulate business into that area, they even offer a deal where you ANY main meal at the Hemi Bar in the Gibson Hotel, parking and a standard seat movie for €20.00 per person – Nils and I want to see Spotlight so his might be a good option but will pay the extra 1.50 for an assigned, premium seat – well worth it and leg room for Nils.
