Does anyone have any suggestions for a good presentation in central Indiana? I'm near Marion and Kokomo, but their offerings aren't too appealing. Any suggestions on theaters?

From what my friend who goes to school near there tells me...

Goodrich Quality Theatres are okay, there are three in the area, one in West Lafayette, two in Lafayette. Eastside 9 is the one with nicest seats, only in their bigger rooms though. I know screen 3 is one of them, dunno about the rest. Presentation wasn't awful, they did have the volume up high enough on Vacancy to drown out the 15 year old peanut gallery most of the time.

The Lafayette 7 is smaller and a little scarier to sit in because all the creepy locals go there, but it's halfway decent despite having the smallest theatre lobby in the world.

The one on the Levee, Wabash Landing 9 I think it's called, is awful almost all the time. Presentation, cleanliness, employee attitude... all bad.

Canary Creek Cinemas in Franklin, IN(about 40 minutes south of Indy). I like to think we have a pretty good presentation and staff..but I am biased;-).

I can't vouch for the place, but I do know that the Collins Road Theatre in Marion has a midnight series on weekends where you can see past favorites Back on the Big Screen. They ran Friday the 13th on Friday the 13th and Indiana Jones last weekend. Tonight is Dr. Strangelove.

That'd be totally fine with him, although if they're getting archived, I'll see if he wants to elaborate on anything. I'll PM you.

Are you doing this for theatres anywhere in the USA? Because I wrote some reviews for local theatres that I could dig up.

Thanks Mark. The reviews are posted. If your friend wants to change anything at all, just let me know.

And if you (or anyone else) want to contribute reviews for any theatres, please do.
