I don't give a **** what others think. We have few idiots posting negative headlines on CINE so from now on when we see a negative headline, I suggest do not reply to those idiots and start a new thread with something positive or with title as 80p before Bond release.

I'm really ****ed off with all the games being played. I'm going to hold the CINE shares until the death of cinemas which I believe is not before 2100 A.D. ! We survived the worst pandemic of the history! Jhango, Legal and General and many other institutions are holding CINE.

I believe in Mooky. He pulled CINE out of the ashes. We could have closed forever if Mooky was not in charge. I'm very confident that he will find way to clear the debt and to deal with it, he already announced about a listing in US. Boxoffice numbers are improving every day and we have already broken the 2019 records for the labor day weekend.

Mooky is not silly to announce a bonus scheme
based on the share performance. He will get his bonus when the share price reaches £1.90 and pretty sure he will make sure that we get to £1.90 and above. If Mooky is not confident about the business then there is no way he can come up with a proposal like that! So, 80p first and Bond release should help go past 80p. AIMO.

Fantastic post LPD.

Clearly games are being played. With great numbers over the weekend, we should have seen atleast 10% rise considering the CINE bounce that we have seen before March but share price was held. Any other share in any other sector would have gone up by atleast 5% despite whatever bad situation a company is.

This is being held like a plague. Market makers have pulled the rug bringing this down from 90s to 60s due to which many PIs have moved on from CINE. But market makers need to push the price up for them to make big bucks. I believe none of the PIs are selling nor buying big now due to the games.

I still do not understand how Jhango is just silently watching this. Clearly they are in to make big bucks. They didn't sell when SP was at 120 so there is no way they would sell now. SP needs to go to £1 and above at some point. Hopefully Shang-chi character inspires Jhango to put an end to all the dirty games being played to keep the SP down!

We are due for a 15% rise. I'm expecting 80p just around the bond release provided we get Cineplex out of our way without hiccups and am confident that it will be a cake walk for Mooky with Cineplex case.

Now over to the doom mongers to jump in with their usual crap about debt, covid, uncertainty...but will claim that they are invested in CINE and will conveniently ignore the good numbers from Shang-chi and the other big ones to come from now.

Overall estimated four-day weekend for all movies stands at $135.2M, which is 12% ahead of the 4-day Labor Day weekend of 2019 of $120.7M.

Many sources have told that moviegoing won’t be considered normal until we’re at or ahead of 2019 weekend box office levels. Well, here’s well-above normal.

DHL relaunched their expensive Bond campaign -

Who says that people don’t go to the movies over Labor Day weekend?

And who says American audiences are hesitant about going to the movies?

Hollywood, it’s time to re-think your game plan about the theatrical release schedule!!!

Like Nick Cunningham said in that Telegraph article, it is foolish to sell Power business and concentrate on aviation business when international travel has not recovered yet and not recovering fully even next year.

RR is in profit now because of the non-aero business so why sell those businesses unless they have their own related company that want to buy power business or causeway are under water and just showing frustration.

If Causeway are in profits then I can't see why they have not sold already when SP hit 130 couple of times after RI.

To me I think, they are in a loss or not made enough profit to sell now. I don't see them selling anytime soon. Also we have appointed new broker to boost investment and the share price.

I think msg from CEO could be that we will sell power business once aviation business resumes. It doesn't make sense to sell now. If Causeway doesn't like that and want to sell at a loss or at whatever profit they have, am sure there are plenty of funds ready to invest.

100% agree LPD & Mountainous. I'm hoping to see media write headline statements that theatrical release is the only avenue to make big bucks for studios. Hopefully studios start to see that with Shang-chi, Bond and other plethora of movies coming in next few months.

Just now ad popped out about Cineworld unlimited membership. If CINE can tie up with corporates and offer the membership then we will have millions more joining.

Having severe headache since afternoon and now not able to sleep.

PW, few weeks back I have been on staycation with family in Lake District. We absolutely loved the place. We rented AirBnB in Keswick. Did lot of hiking in Whinlater, Skidaw and the drive in Honister pass was fantastic with beautiful views. I like kayaking but we could not do it this time. Next time for sure we will go for kayaking. I live in south east but 35 miles away from London so we love mountain areas, lakes, sea side.

Right now this song is in my head - Lovestation Tear drops. Not able to get this song out of my head :-)

The bit I liked from the Variety article -
"
Unlike “Black Widow,” the previous Marvel film, “Shang-Chi” will only be available in cinemas for 45 days. “Black Widow” debuted simultaneously in theaters and on Disney Plus, where it was available to rent for $30. “Black Widow” still managed to set a pandemic era opening weekend record when it bowed to $80.4 million in July, but its revenues fell sharply in subsequent weekends. Other films like “Candyman” and “Free Guy” that didn’t embrace a hybrid release model beat expectations at the box office.
"

You are right Mountainous. Compared to the numbers shown on booking system, the actual numbers in the cinema were lot higher. We went to watch Croods and when I was booking online, it wasn't full but when we went to see the movie, it was nearly full.

4DX am reserving it for Matrix but may be we will go and see Shang-Chi. Every little spend helps. Spread the word to the friends and more people will start going.

to see this stuck around 115. Clearly this is one of the safest stock in FTSE 100 although growth wise not that exciting but there is potential with Britbox. Now that we remain in FTSE 100, I thought we will move up today. Piers news is in a way good for ITV. The forces that brought this down from 130 to here need to revisit ITV again. Atleast 125p minimum we should be at and not 115p.

Warren East clearly wants share price to improve. At the same time he doesn't want to sell power business despite Cause way putting pressure to sell. There is no need for Warren to please Cause way. At the same time he doesn't want to annoy them either and I don't think Cause way would threaten to sell their stake as the business started making profits and they could make more money as business expands for carbon neutral theme. But RR need money to expand so probably selling power business is good. May be next year when travel recovers and aviation business is bringing in that 50% revenue then they can think about selling power business.

With ITP sale in the process and profits from other business, RR liquidity is solid. Cause way investor wants to get rich quick and so are we. Warren need to take a balanced approach. Hopefully all this ends well for RR and for us.

Now everyone understood their game. We all expected a drop but Algo's didn't want to get caught by taking this down. Just 300 trades so far.

Paramount could have done streaming release like Disney but they didn't as they know the value of the theatrical release.
Definitely one movie delayed is not the end of the world. We still have fantastic movies coming up next few months.

To me, it was a foolish decision by Paramount. Mission Impossible franchise with all 6 movies together garnered £3.5bn so avg per film is around $600m. F9 already made $700m. Top-Gun if it had been released even during pre-covid times, it would have made $600m and it could have made same amount if it was released as planned in November. The only other movie that would have eaten up Top Gun revenue is Spider man and the release date for that is 2 weeks after the Top Gun's November release. Matrix releasing a week later but Top Gun would have still made $500m atleast if they had stuck to the Nov date.

Also just checked again BoxOffice numbers for November.

In Nov 2019, total collection was $960M whereas in Aug 2019, collection wsa $837M so not a big difference between Aug and Nov in 2019. Also no one is expecting $960M this Nov 2021 with Top Gun release.

Ghost Busters, Resident Evil and other movies in November can easily make up any lost revenue in Nov 2021.

When Bond is being released without worrying about Covid, there is no reason to move the date for Top Gun so early. There will be more people vaccinated in US by Nov and even Australia and NZ are expecting 80% vaccination by December.

Anways, as long as box office for Nov is more than half of Nov 2019 then I think we are OK. Bond movie will keep collecting even in November and it could get to $1bn and that will bring good revenue for cinemas too.

Lastly, Cruis you were attacked as you were expecting Bond getting delayed and shared so many links about bond getting delayed but it did not. Top Gun delay is unfortunate but to me, it is bit foolish to make that decision so early....

Good Afternoon LPD et al, yes even I believe Bond will easily surpass F9 figures in much quicker time than F9 took. Bond figures should set the stage of the rest of the lineup in Q4. Like someone said, we have good movies this month too.

Cinemark is a $2bn company with less number of screens than us. We are seriously undervalued.

Yesterday Cinemark did near 5% rise and overall did more than 25% since 22nd Aug. We have lot of catching up to do.

daily average is much better than previous years!

Box Office Mojo shows that for August month, the daily avg is
2021 $4,685,434
2019 $3,969,812
2018 $3,948,493

Despite all that streaming nonsense, best figure for August month in 2021 compared to previous years!
All we need is more movies and we have big line up of movies next few months.

looking forward to the Bond release. It is a big movie for MGM and for cinema chains.
I'm expecting a good push to upside as we get close to Bond release.

had the dividend been not delayed, SP would have comfortably north of 150p as funds will pour in for dividends.
By the time meagre dividends are issued in 2022, there are lots of other companies that provide higher dividends and funds will then as well will not be interested.

But again look at Aviva and Tesco, they are returning billions in dividends back to SHs but SP did not move in bigger percentages.

Enormous free cash that ITV has, Dame needs to do something big and not do pity 1m and 2m investments in small companies. I don't understand what value those small investments bring unless all those companies are related to Dame and others in BOD! But that is fraud if those companies in which they invested are related to BOD but you never know...some distant relative etc...

They need to do big investments...borrow more money if needed and buy studios may be or cinemas or may be buy Radio channels! Heart radio has so many adverts so why not buy them and increase the AD revenue instead of doing 1m and 2m investments in small companies?

more shares are being issued to BCN holders?

second day of 5% rise confirms that confidence is back on CINE. We now have more than 10% rise from 62p on Monday!!!

Last year and in the beginning of this year, we had good rises from 60s to 70s and then it moved quickly to 80s.

Today if we can close at 69p or 70p then tomorrow easily 72p open and move to 75p.

Clearly CINE is undervalued and is a nice covid recovery stock for a potential 50% gain from the current prices.

we don't have a single RNS about reduced holdings from the institutions since the highs of 120s. We have Jhango holding still and this time they will skin alive anyone playing games with CINE stock. This has to climb back to £1 and above.

Mooky has a bigger stake in CINE and he will do everything to get back the SP to £1.90 and above.

All that Mooky needs is few big billion dollar box office movies and Bond could start with that one and then rest of the movies should help and then it will be business as usual for CINE for the next several decades.

Ticket prices are increasing and they will be increased and that increases the revenue for CINE in the coming years.
Fantastic line of up of movies to come.

Last but not least, anytime from now we may see US listing announcement and that will lift our finances significantly to a much better shape forever.

All that we need is patience.
