Before we begin, yes, this is a very lazy sequel to last year’s roundup.
Taking a look back through the movies I’ve seen at the cinema this year, it’s apparent there are lot less than last year. Perhaps I’ve been too busy with concerts and that trip to Japanback in April.
Only 117 movies this time, compared to 188 last year. 86 of these were through ODEON Limitless. 2 of them were £3 Dolby Cinema upgrades on top of Limitless, and 2 were £5 IMAX upgrades. Most of the ODEON screenings were at ODEON Liverpool One, excluding 3 which took place in London, and 2 at ODEON Bromborough.
I watched 19 movies across two Picturehouse Cinemas, 4 at Picturehouse at FACT in Liverpool and the 15 Scotland Loves Anime screenings at Cameo Cinema.
I watched only 1 movie at Showcase in Liverpool, and another 1 at The Light Cinema New Brighton, and 5 at Vue Cinemas. This included a visit to Vue West End Leicester Square for the UK premiere of the latest Detective Conan movie, which I actually had the opportunity to watch the week it released in Japan while I was over there.
Excluding trailers and adverts, that’s 13461 minutes watching movies at the cinema this year. That’s 224.35 hours, or 9.35 days. Last year was 22722 minutes.

| Vue Cardiff | 105 |
| The Light Cinema New Brighton | 86 |
| ODEON Bromborough | 251 |
Of the screenings I watched, 29 were of Japanese origin, though this is heavily weighted by 26 anime movies, 15 taking place at Scotland Loves Anime, and 3 screening of the latest Detective Conan movie(in Japan, UK premiere, and UK general release).
I’ve enjoyed even more Live Action Asian Cinema on the big screen than last year with 35 movies. 11 movies from Hong Kong, 14 from China, 4 from South Korea, 5 from Japan, and 1 from Vietnam.
