Orange launches online film club

2 December 2008 15:44 GMT / By Katie Scott

Film fans who want to talk about their favourite flicks or watch the latest trailers can now do it through Bebo and Facebook.

Orange has launched a new online film club on the two social networking websites.

Users just have to sign up to become "friends" of the club, and they will then get access to free preview screenings of the latest movies.

They will also get access to the 'Orange Wednesdays Movie Show' - a weekly online programme featuring movie news and previews.

Facebookers will get a new application, which will show when one of your friends is using the Orange two-for-one cinema ticket promotion.

You can then send an invite to a friend with the name of the film, where you're going to see it and what time to get a group together. And if you're not an Orange customer and one of your friends is, you can always "poke" them to get them to take you along to the movie.

  • I never cease to be amazed at how society moves away from face to face interaction and at the slightest prompt, utilises technology to move a step further away.

    Whilst orange are attempting to draw a larger slice of the Mobile users to their network, this “Service” surely is another example of providing yet another excuse for people not to talk to each other?

    Social interaction is, and should be a delight. The digital interfaces available across an ever wider range of interactions diminishes the art / skill of actually talking and inter reacting to and with people.

    Here for instance in this forum, I can "say" what I like - with the misapprehension that I am talking to millions and actually making a difference! The truth however is a much smaller and simpler reality!     Posted by Tony Orwin, United Kingdom
