I have been working on this site in wake of the re-design: updating information; identifying and remedying glitches. One significant problem I have identified is that all information on West Coast cinemas (Greymouth, Reefton, Westport and Hokitika) was lost in the transition to the new site. This means I will have to travel down there as soon as I can, to ensure these important places are included. Indeed, it was the now-closed Crooked Mile Talking Pictures cinema in Hokitika which inspired the first iteration of this site (see photo above).
Also, the Cinema of the Month feature (with the Lumiere in Christchurch as first entry) will be unchanged for little while longer, as I attend to other matters. |
