Week 9 - The Dark Knight, Classic Bond, Drive In’s and more…


Hello Movie Clubbers,

Just a quick update, there are now 166 members through the website, as well as another 172 members on our Facebook group.

We went to see Kung Fu Panda last Thursday, which was a good fun :)

Next up is possibly the biggest movie of the summer (maybe even year!)


Thursday 24th July - The Dark Knight - Cineworld - Meet up at 8.20pm in 1st floor café bar (movie starts at 20:50pm) - Book Online

” Batman and James Gordon join forces with Gotham’s new District Attorney, Harvey Dent, to take on a psychotic bank robber known as The Joker, whilst other forces plot against them, and Joker’s crimes grow more and more deadly”

Tickets may already be sold out, if they are - don’t worry - you can join us another night.


Next week, I’m taking a break! 9 solid weeks of organising movies is taking its toll, but the next official meetup will be the first week in August.

As mentioned before, Cineworld classics are the last Monday of each month, and this months movie is the Bond classic ‘Goldfinger’ (”you expect me to talk….No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!”) - Although I’m not organising a meetup, if anyone is going or wants to meet up, just drop me a email/message.

Another interesting movie update, is the Farmleigh Drive In movies held out in Phoenix Park, tickets are free, but it’s a lottery, upcoming films include ‘Jaws’ and ‘The Snapper’

More free movies, can be found at weekends in Temple Bar, this Saturday sees ‘The Dude’ - The Big Lebowski - details here


About this Club

The Dublin Movie Club is a FREE weekly movie club, a great way to meet new people - as well as see some brilliant movies. Everyone is welcome, especially if you’ve never been before!

Here are some photos of the club after a recent movie.

What to expect?

If you’ve never been before, I’ll introduce you and get you chatting to other members, so don’t worry if you’re a newbie - it’s not a closed group, and most people are meeting for the first time. The meet up spot will be marked with a few small balloons on a table so have a good look around the venue (don’t expect helium balloons!)

Week 8 - Update


Hello Movie Clubbers,

Another week has passed, and we’ve now grown to over 116 members through the website, as well as another 123 members on our Facebook group.

There has been a huge amount of interest so far, and what we really need is you (yes you!) to come along - don’t be shy, because we’ve got some great movies coming up over the next two weeks:


1. Thursday 17th July - Kung Fu Panda - Cineworld - Meet up at 7.40pm in 1st floor café bar (movie starts at 20:10pm) - Book Online

“Po the Panda is the laziest animals in all of the Valley of Peace, but unwittingly becomes the chosen one when enemies threaten their way of life.”

2. Thursday 24th July - The Dark Knight - Cineworld - Meet up at 8.20pm in 1st floor café bar (movie starts at 20:50pm) - Book Online

” Batman and James Gordon join forces with Gotham’s new District Attorney, Harvey Dent, to take on a psychotic bank robber known as The Joker, whilst other forces plot against them, and Joker’s crimes grow more and more deadly”


It seems like Cineworld are offering the best selection for upcoming movies (which is handy for those with a Unlimited card). One of the cool things they do is their Monthly Classic Movies, which are on the last Monday of each month. Next up on Monday 28th July is the Bond classic ‘Goldfinder’ (”you expect me to talk….No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!”) - Anyway, if anyone is interested - drop me an email and I’ll organise an mini meet up.

Monday 28th July: Goldfinger (digital print)
