Author Topic: Had many "Cars" walkouts? John Koutsoumis Master Film Handler Posts: 261 From: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Registered: Aug 2003 posted 06-24-2006 11:33 PM                     quote: Ron Curran I never realised what a bad cinema we were running till cinema-going experts like John K pointed out the error of our ways. Ron, I have no idea how you run your Cinema I just stating an opinion on what might be a way to do things. You do things your way and leave at that. It's your cinema. On thinking about it I knew certain things may not be possible but so what, never mind. Again it's an opinion. Don't know where the heck your Cinema is but if I ever pass by I'll drop in. I'm sure you must do at least a better job than the ty plexes around here. I don't work in a commercial Cinema (ours is private hire, ctrics screenings, film societies, etc) so I don't face the dilemmas and problems you might but I have faced them as a patron. And yeah where I work (The Erwin Rado Theatre) is to me the best place to watch films on 35, 16 and Video so I no longer go anywhere else  |  IP: Logged Cameron Glendinning Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 845 From: West Ryde, Sydney, NSW Australia Registered: Dec 2005 posted 06-28-2006 12:08 AM                     Ron's Cinema is in a little pocket of paradise called Glenbrook, at the base of the Blue Mountains, aproximatly one hour drive from Sydney. Australia. If you are there in summer take a towel and swimsuit and take advantage of Jellybean Creek at the local national park. I have never had the pleasure of meeting Ron, but admired him from afar for a long long time. His early embrace of Dolby Digital and DTS sound always impressed me. It was an era when many cinemas were still equipped with EPRAD or yellow brick processes from associated sound! From what I have heard from people who grew up in the area, it is clear that showmanship and quality presentation is very important to him. Anybody who can keep a single screen cinema alive in the 21st century deserves to be congratulated Keep up the good work Ron I hope "Cars" business picks up  |  IP: Logged
