Everyone wants to go on forever, I just wanna burn out hard and bright...

Like our lamphouse. What was already a dreary, gray day out (which should have been perfect for seeing a movie) got a little darker when s/tudio 1 lost power right as The Messenger kicked off at 12:20. A thousand apologies to everyone whose plans were disrupted by our malfunction, but we felt like we came up with the most diplomatic solution by replacing the 5:20 screening of An Education with the film that had been dark all day. If it makes you feel any better, our own son was ashamed of us after hearing what had happened. Exhibit A:

But I'm turning all emo schoolgirl on you, and whining about all the things that have gone wrong, when in fact things have been going even better than we could have hoped. There was a great piece in this week's YES! Weekly chronicling our open, and highlighting all the wonderful comments we've gotten on our facebook page. We thought it would be at least a month before we'd have to change out our chalkboard question, but you all made us do it after a week.

We are down to one studio for the time being, but working our darndest to be back at full operation ASAP. So tomorrow's schedule is a little different, so if you know someone who was planning on coming out for a film, let them know that we've added a 3:20 to try and give Winston it's fair shake of The Messenger, and that An Education is showing at 5:40. The late weekday show (8:00) will be The Messenger again. It's a holiday, so come out and see us early!

  1. To quote Woody Harrelson in The Messenger, "It could be worse. It could be Christmas."
