cinema listings for film poor

I do not know if this was a local problem or occurred elsewhere. I knew film release date and checked listing the week before, I was surprised I could advance book James Bond movie but not this one. At release weekend it still wasn't showing. Then I clicked dropdown and there it was. Speaking to a friend this week we talked about films and I mentioned seeing this one. She said that she would have liked to see it but never saw it listed. A f Another friend had managed to see but said there was only a couple of performance s and these were afternoon slots. It seems such a shame that the hard work of everyone concerned is undermined by a poor film distribution system that overhypes US blockbusters. PS I know James Bond is British, I refer there to the normal offerings which aren't and, yes, I have booked my seat for Bond :-)
