I ordered tickets for Quantum of Solace online at MovieTickets.com
We chose to see the movie at the Showcase Cinema de Lux Patriot Place.
Ordering ticklets was not that straighforward, since the Cinema de Lux also has a Lux level. So when you order tickets, you have to ba careful.
The Lux level has food and beverage service.
Here's the online seating chart:
To me, that looks like, if you choose the last row, you are three rows away from the movie screen.
It turns out that the Lux level means that there's a balcony at the back of the theatre, so you are not three rows from the screen, more like 53 rows back from the screen.
That's more like it.

I got a survey via email when I got home, and they wanted to know which of hte following previews I remembered.
Seven PoundsThe ones that I most enjoyed were:
Angels & Demons
The International
2012
Bedtime Stories
The Day the Earth Stood Still
The Spirit
Valkyrie
Star Trek XI (2009)
Fast and Furious
Yes Man
Watchmen
Bedtime StoriesAlthough I am a big Star Trek fan, Bedtime Stories had the best preview.
The Day the Earth Stood Still
Valkyrie
Star Trek XI (2009)
We did not see previews for Seven Pounds, Fast and Furious, The International, 2012, Yes Man, or Watchmen.
Once we were settled into our seats we were introduced to a SERVICE button at our seat. It was explained that if you pushed it anytime, someone would come and take your order.
Well, that did not work.
We ended up getting served, without silverware and napkins.
Can you imagine?
Plus, the beginning of the movie has garbled sound issues.
Yikes!
It all resolved itself as did the movie.
