Finally, I actually enjoy movies in a theatre again.
Wow, a real theatre, haven't seen one of these since the Crest in Sacramento (Awesome place by the way, but don't know if the managed to stick around).
My top 5 reasons to see a movie here instead of the typical mall theatre:
1. It brings back the majesty of cinema--restored back to its Early 20th century period charm, lots of gold accents and red curtains. Even one that covers the screen before the film starts. I guess this stuff can be cheesy, or not, but either way it makes the movies enjoyable. They did miss on a few points...the upper balcony was converted to bathroom--they had to put it somewhere--but how cool would a balcony be?...and the fake box sections are obvious. But most people are there to watch a movie, not judge restoration design. Seats are nice and wide, and the place is set up more like a concert venue rather than stadium seating. The employees actually enjoy their work there (or pretend to).
2. It doesn't cost $50000/person to see a second rate modern film, ala AMC.
3. The sound system isn't all bass or too loud, perfectly clear and balanced, without hurting your ears.
4. Previews aren't four years long.
5. They choose to show the most popular main stream titles, as well as interesting indie films and documentaries.
