Kiwi, I'm very sorry that you had a bad experience at the cinema. Please recheck my earlier post: the English language version is scheduled to run daily at 16:40 as I said. I'm sorry you went at 17:40, an hour too late.

I went to the Wanda last weekend not to see the film (which I had already seen), but to verify the starting time for other Xpat readers. I have nothing to do with the Wanda Corporation. I just wanted to make your life a little bit simpler and more pleasant.

And I repeat: if you will simply look for the two Chinese characters for "English Language" after the listing at the box office, you can easily learn when and where it will be screened. If you can't or won't learn these two simple characters that would make your life in China so much easier, then I am afraid I can't help you. Enjoy your DVD.

Many thanks....
So the movie is scheduled to run at 16.40?
So why does this site continue to advertise the following....?

007's Quantum of Solace in English
Thu, Dec 4th, @6:00pm - 09:00PM

Is 6.00pm not 18.00 on the 24 hour clock or am I missing something here?

No I'm not. I'm just an average young man who doesn't like arrogant people who think that everything is due to them.

I wouldn't have been. This movie is advertised as in English only because DalianXpat is an English language website targeting at English-speaking people. And nothing in the ad said that the listings were in English or not.

QUOTE:
I don't go to Wanda expecting for all of the movies to be in English, because we are in China.....


Thanks, Captain Obvious !

I think Xpat and China would be better served if you learned the Golden Rule of, "If you can't say anything nice then you shouldn't say anything".


Looks like this Rule needs to be applied by most of the people here.

I love the calling name games and the dog fights.

And chips just belong to a good discussion.

But lets talk about some cheap activities.

cheers

...

Hit the nail on the head Mr. Isomorph. I think some people have some serious anger management issues. Relaxation techniques can work wonders.

Cheap activities? According to a recent article on the China Daily:
LINK - LINK - Having sex: the nation's favourite free activity

Now, back to this topic. What time exactly is the movie? 6:00pm (1800), as per the website?

Or is it 5:00pm (1700)?
