Showbiz Waverley Cinemas — Local services in Melbourne

My self and my two grown up sons went to this establishment yesterday to see a film we were told we could go up stairs to see the movie we went into the cinema as the door was open but the lights were not on ....it’s a small cinema so we thought Ok maybe we are the only ones coming .We went to sit down and my youngest who is a tall man in his 30 s 6 ft 3 in the old scale could not fit into the seat provided ! The seats were not wide enough nor did they have enough leg room either.It was at this point that a man came in and proceeded to tell us off for being in there as couldn’t we see there were no lights on! We did not even get a chance to reply when he told us to get out and wait .We had no chance to reply as he went off somewhere.we stood outside the cinema door waiting and thinking what to do about the fact that one of my sons could not fit when this man bustled back and once agin told us off for going into the cinema .and said that we could now go in.Only about two minutes had transpired between being in the cinema the first time and being informed that it was now ok to go in again!I understand that the man could think that if we had gone into a darkened cinema we could have had an accident Andy possibly sued if we had been so inclined...but to make us transpire the darkened cinema again in Oder to follow his instructions is just increasing the likelihood of an accident!As was said earlier we were to,d to go on up and the doors were open.Whoever the man was he defiantly needs to improve his social skills as it seems he was on a massive power trip and the cinema could improve with taking into consideration that not all their clients are tiny little old ladies and invest in some seating for the people of today.My sons and I left before seeing any of the movie due to...

Went for a movie day at Showbiz Cinemas. Joined & became a member. You get a free ticket then each ticket is cheaper for other sessions. They have Cheap Mondays there and now as a "member", you get even cheaper ticket, even on a Monday. Was worried about parking (only one to two hours normally), but you get a parking coupon (at the box office) to cover your time there. There's lovely choc-tops too. Cinemas themselves are comfortable & warm. When I mentioned the deal with membership, my partner said: "sign me up too!" I had a great time at Showbiz Cinemas & plan on going...
