Eewick: "Canvey Island's cinema. Cinema tickets starting at just £1.50 for a child, £2.50 for an adult! And it's by the sea. And theres a chip shop next door. And it's an hour and a half from London by train. Bingo! (Come to think of it, there's a bingo hall down the road too.)" Photograph: GuardianWitness

Robert Mulraney: "Forgotten Cinene. The bizarre cinema in Castlederg, Co. Tyrone which closed in the 1960s. It remains standing but the dismantling of the Gothic style entrance has left it looking more like a farm barn than a cinema." Photograph: GuardianWitness

cebcebcebceb: "Rex Cinema, Elland, Halifax. A fab cinema (part of the the Northern Morris group). Love going here! organ concerts, intermissions for local ice cream indulgences, cosy seats." Photograph: GuardianWitness

Armin Grewe: :The ScreenMachine visiting Islay. The ScreenMachine is the most amazing marvel of technology, a lorry that converts into a full size cinema. It brings the movies to remote places all over Scotland, including Islay." Photograph: GuardianWitness

Cineguimbi: "Guimbi Theatre (Bobo-Dioulasso - Burkina Faso.) Today Guimbi Theater stands as a ruin of no archeological value. It must be saved so that it will step out of its urban legend and rise from its ashes. Bobo-Dioulasso’s Guimbi Theater symbolises the threat weighing over cinema in Africa today. Saving it will help safeguard its local and universal heritage." Photograph: GuardianWitness

Ak Straumann: "A vast amount of highly stimulating and inventive film programs - ranging from the work ofBridget Fonda to Motorcycle films, or a film series circling around the cult status of the radio presenter - have been shown at the Xenix Kino in Zurich for the past thirty years. A very inspiring, exciting and unique place for film lovers." Photograph: GuardianWitness

NIViking: "The Strand Cinema, East Belfast. A beautiful art deco cinema in East Belfast with Belfast's iconic Harland & Wolff cranes in the background." Photograph: GuardianWitness

gordonbruce: "Film Nights in Iona Village Hall. Our nearest 'proper' cinema is two and a half hours away and seeing a film there involves a couple of ferries and an overnight stay. Instead we watch movies in Iona Village Hall over the winter months. Tables are provided so that patrons (who pay a small donation to hall funds) can enjoy whatever they've brought to drink. Most bring a cushion too, as the chairs aren't very comfortable. The best thing is that everyone knows everyone else!" Photograph: GuardianWitness
