Do the bangla workers clean the head rest now or just vacuum the floor only???

i think now got removable/disposable covering on the headrest. bangla will change after each screening. probably d seats also use newer anti odour materials d.

back in d day it was just regular canvas type material that absorbs sweat n odour.

The toilets in those old cinemas are always scary.

Some more as you walk in the corridor leading to the toilet, you have to push away those big heavy curtains.

now that you mentioned it, i think old toilets design in any building looks scary, including some houses. i don't know why. now the designs look more 'cheerful' especially in the shopping malls.

During the early days of GSC, their seats used to stink of B.O

i remember watching many movies at GSC MV n dreaded resting my head on the headrest. every time i fear doing it. coz during one particular saturday afternoon after a movie, i started smelling strong B.O n unwashed hair smell around me. it cant be me coz i always take a bath n wash my hair b4 going out. plus i use styling product on my hair so so early in d day it wont stink.

i got home n smelled my clothes...walau damm stink.

d next time i went to GSC MV i out my nose closer to the seat. true enuf d B.O n unwashed smell came fr d seats n got stuck on my clothes n hair. after that many yrs i no go GSC MV. went to GSC 1U instead as the place was new n no stink.
