Kurt Zupin Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 989 From: Maricopa, Arizona Registered: Oct 2004 posted 04-02-2005 04:01 PM                     That is true Monte, only if its an actual...I have one as well but mine is a reprint, looks the same as the original...but its not. Only person that can answer that for us is the man him self.  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 04-02-2005 04:10 PM                     Whoops never mind that. It was cool to visit the Tuchinski as we got to walk around outside on the ceiling and get a nice view of the city.  |  IP: Logged Jason M Miller Master Film Handler Posts: 284 From: Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA Registered: Jul 2004 posted 04-03-2005 07:34 PM                     I would love to go, IL, WI, Michigan, or Ohio would be great for me, but if it is someplace else I will need to save more $$, just let me know when so I can get it off from work.  |  IP: Logged James Faber Film Handler Posts: 66 From: Des Moines, Iowa , USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 04-03-2005 07:36 PM                        Well, if this happens, we might as well start talking about the best place to book plane tickets.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 04-03-2005 10:40 PM                     We'll just get Cinema West to pay for everyone's tickets. Sound like a plan Aaron?  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 04-03-2005 11:07 PM                     There we go! We all need to come out west and check out Mike's little "Roxy" theatre in Forsyth, Montana. There, we can help him put up adustable maskings so he can have "true scope" presentations. -Monte  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

You get the whole shebang with theatre organ, curtain, plater frou-frou, etc., & might want to think about a city with one of those, like the Atlanta Fox, the impeccably-restored Alabama Theatre in Birmingham (although there's not much else that's diverting in Birmingham, compared to other cities), or the New Orleans Saenger. The New Orleans Saenger is supposed to have its Norelco's back in use this summer; it will be interesting to see after the last couple of years of having a company bring in equipment running changeovers on one projector with a blue picture & the other with an orange picture. As enticing as New Orleans may sound, be aware that New Orleans in summer will hammer people even from other hot (but dry) locations to a jelly. It's got occasional breezes from the river, though, so it's not as bad as Jackson, Mississippi, where I once saw an out-of-town lady waiting for a van outside of a building after a meeting just break down into tears from the heat & crouch on the ground. If they're telling people in Jackson, MS that hell is hotter than Jackson, you bet they're scared.  |  IP: Logged William T. Parr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 823 From: Cedar Park, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 04-04-2005 01:26 PM                     I would be open to something after May 5th as I can take a paid vacation from my job at that time. Would prefer that we were some where close to a days drive from me as the price of gas has gotten stupidly high recently and I have not had a cost of living increase in my pay in 4 years now.  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 04-04-2005 01:58 PM                     I'm still liking the original idea of Watseka, Illinois to take in a film at the Princess II theater... I need to know soon though if we're doing anything, some people need to request days off WAY in advance!  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 04-04-2005 03:14 PM                     I think seriously it's going to end up at the Cinema West Screening Room.  |  IP: Logged Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA. USA (1774.21 miles northeast of Dallas) Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-04-2005 03:27 PM                        Can't you pick something on the east coast for once? I'd humbly suggest a "help build the Norwood Screening Room" party (I supply parts, attendees supply labor and test films/equipment). Alternatively, we could all just show up at Rachel's theatre....  |  IP: Logged Scott D. Neff Theatre Dork Posts: 919 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Oct 1999 posted 04-04-2005 05:04 PM                        I am all for the idea of the Cinema West Screening Room. I live 5 minutes from it... Besides... you haven't lived until you've seen the Cinema West Sebastopol...  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 04-04-2005 10:01 PM                        quote: Monte L Fullmer There, we can help him put up adustable maskings so he can have "true scope" presentations. If you saw the way my stage is built you probably woulnd't say that! In Montana, the best theatre is probably the Wilma in Missoula. I haven't been to a movie there in years, but the place is dripping with history and is truly elegant. (Over 1100 seats in the main house!)  |  IP: Logged
