Cardskipper FAQ Q&A Live List
Q Can I put the Cardskipper card onto my wallet?
A It is possible, but we don’t recommend it as your card would just be a passive image of the card and you won’t get notifications, renewal notices and it won’t tell you when it has expired.
Electronic scanner – Why is my QR code scanned?
Scanning of the QR code provides the committee with information about attendance at screenings. Each membership is valid for use (by the member only) for one screening per week. If you do not have your phone, a Committee Member will be there to assist. Rest assured that if you are a paid-up member you will be able to see the movie. But please understand you may be delayed entry while other members are admitted.
Film selection – How are films selected?
The committee selects films each term, usually from recent releases. It is our aim to select films of merit, including subtitled foreign films, and to avoid films already screened by Village in Launceston. Films must already be available in the country and from the film distributor.

Film selection – Can I suggest a film?
Members are welcome to email suggestions for films; please note that we are aware of films that are reviewed in the press and on TV. It is the films that slip beneath the radar that we are most happy to learn about. Please check that we have not already screened the film by using the search function on the website to check back copies of NEWSREEL.
Membership – Can I obtain a Guest Pass
Guest Passes are available for purchase by members. Click on "Membership" and "Guest Pass" and all the information is provided there.
Membership – Can I transfer my membership?
Memberships cannot be transferred.
Newsreel – Where can I get a copy?
Newsreel will be posted out to members before each term commences. You can request to download Newsreel from the website rather than receive a copy. If you did not receive your copy in the mail, there are a small number of extra copies kept at the cinema. If you have lost your copy, you can view and download NEWSREEL on the downloads page.
Number of members – How many members are there in the LFS? Can it be increased to reduce the waiting list?
There are currently approximately 1,050 members of the LFS. The largest theatre in the Village complex holds around 290 people, providing a maximum capacity of 870 seats per week over three sessions. This means a seat cannot always be guaranteed at any screening. The scanner provides us with data on attendance figures to assist with managing membership numbers.
Screenings – Why are films not shown in the school holidays?
During the school holidays, the cinema is not available to the LFS as Village increases its screenings for school age audiences.
