method 3,
I looked at several cinemas and what was showing on that day, I then compared the results to see if there were any patterns.
Vue- a large multi-plex cinema
At this cinema there were a total of eight films showing in one day with a total of 29 screenings. The film screened most often was quantum of solace, the new James Bond film. Seven out of eight films were American (88%) showing that the large majority of films shown at Vue are American productions. Only one British film was shown, easy virtue and this was only screened once on this day. No foreign films were shown on this day.
Cinema city which is a smaller independent cinema is showing a total of six films today, with a total of twelve screenings. 335 of films showing are foreign language films, with the same percentage of American and British films being shown. This shows an equal distribution unlike Vue which is dominated by mass market American films.
Vue is showing 88% American films whereas cinema city is only showing 33% American. This is because vue is a larger cinema that concentrates on the mass market. Whereas cinema city is a smaller independent cinema that often shows the alternative films

Media terminology, shots
The 180 degree rule
Two characters in the same scene should always be on the same left right relationship in order to maintain consistency throughout and avoid any confusion. If two characters are facing each other there is an imaginary line the camera cannot cross if it does this is called a reverse angle.
Shot reverse
Where one character is shown looking at another character then we see that character looking back, we assume they are looking at each other.
Match on action
A film editing technique where one person is shown in the same pace as he was in the last scene to create continuity and the illusion the character is moving through two scenes the same not two pieces of film cut together.
