I should rephrase that, interlocking in this case is certainly possible though tricky. Regardless, management will never do it!

Interlocking is ALWAYS possible. The next time I am in Australia I'll fix that for you.
And that would be...? [Wink]

Sorry guys, I couldn't resist.

I don't know John. Do you have a location with two neighboring cinema complexes across the road from each other I can play in? I've always wanted to interlock one print between every house in two completely separate complexes. I understand there is a 30 and a 24 plex in this situation somewhere in California. Whew, my pants are getting kinda tight! [Cool]

I want someone to interlock across postal codes, or at least a state line.

It had to be brought up eventually. [Wink]

There's one in Castle Hill that has two separate locations...problem is, they've just converted one of them to all-digital. They do retain two houses with 35mm and digital though so it is still possible.

Thats right John,

I have been given a schedule once with a interlock between the two locations... Would be interesting seeing the film run through the shopping centre, food court and fire exits!

When you want to do that interlock Jarrad, just let Brad and I know and we're there. [thumbsup]

(If you would please make sure it's not raining, that would be a help to the slave screen's results.) [Wink]

I've now managed to interlock 5 of my 6 booths. You can see a video of the previous interlock (missing two of them but at the building extremes ) here. As soon as I get time, I'll post the additional screen connection that now goes through the floor.
