Blackout @ GSC Pavilion KL

It was around 4:15pm, when we were in the cinema, watching "Transformers II". Only 30 mins of the show, suddenly it was a blackout, the show is gone, the emergency lights were on. Everybody was so shocked, none of us knew what's happening. I even thought that it was some kind of "special effects" from the cinema, we could even expect to see 'Optimus Prime' or 'Megatron' appears from the back......

But 15 mins after the incident, we realized that it's definitely something went wrong. Somebody went out to check, and when they came back, they told us that many people were heading to the exit, the electricity went off, the show was stopped. And it was already 30 mins over.

No shows today, just about I think 1/3 of the 'Transformer 2' I've seen. They promised to give us a refund or change to another time, but just like the lady said, "It's not the matter of money."

My brother and I, went to the first counter, queue up for another 15~20 mins to get our voucher back (we used the complimentary pass). The electricity resumed at around 5:00pm, but our shows have cut. No more Transformers. They stopped selling tickets, but the shows after 5pm were still on.

GSC claimed that it was the electricity problem from Pavilion itself. However, they still promise on our ticket refund and bear the lost and our blame...

We end up returned home with 1/3 of Transformers II. What a DAY! T_T

The electricity went off, everybody went down to the entrance again, it's an uproar from the people. The staffs were trying to cool down the people, and made an announcement.

My tickets before the refund. Gosh! I can't believe it I just watched 1/3 of it! It's the first time I encounter this.

Electricity resumed at around 5:00pm, but our show was confirmed cancelled. Too bad!

what lousy system. Thought the cinema itself should have the backup for it.

sigh, what a disappointed mood you had.
