Another weekend, another bunch of special events

First off, let me thank you for showing up just enough to make The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo a hit, but not enough to force me into getting a tattoo. We came close to sell-outs a few times, but none officially. I guess you all have some time to change that, though. We're carrying over Dragon as well as Babies for the coming week, but we also have a plethora of s/pecial events on tap. As we've mentioned before, in honor of Salute! we have Blood into Wine. Tickets are moving fast, and we've had people as far off as Atlanta already purchase tickets. That's dedication Holmes. And as if you needed another reason to show up, we're giving away four passes to the wine festival, two at our 5:40 showing and two at our 8:00.

Come Sunday, an era will come to an end, and you ladies will have to do without a shirtless Sawyer, except on DVD. Our screening of the series finale of Lost will begin boarding, errrr seating, at 8 (we know there's a recap thing starting at 7, but our normal Sunday schedule won't be over by then - you've already seen all that stuff anyway). It's first come first serve, and based on the RSVPs and comments (thanks for keeping us straight Robin) on our event page along with the multitude of people that have come in asking about it, getting there as close to 8 as you can is recommended. There's a ton of stuff going on with this, from the costume contest to special concessions, so if you're on the fence, hop over and embrace the smoke monster that is a/perture.

Last but not least, Monday we're going to be showing another film with some local ties, And We Will Dance. Locally based but nationally recognized artist Steve Childs follows the story of four dancers from UNCSA. Check out the trailer below:

And after you've seen the trailer, get down to the box office, because tickets are going even faster for this than the Blood into Wine showings. Now I have to scratch my eyeballs out, since Lawren is watching The City. Somebody make it stop...
