It would be weird movies all the time, the movies that don't run on cable and that you can't find in the video stores. I would run a lot of 70's horror (because it's the best). A certain number of comedies, maybe some Peter Bogdanovich. Some Jacques Tati, because I enjoyed watching his stuff at revival theatres in the 80's. "Dawn of the Dead" would be shown only once, at a midnight show, for purposes of opening the place.

No, wait: A double bill of Jacques Tati's "Traffic" and Romero's "Dawn of the Dead." Can you see it? All those idiot film students crowding in there with their upscale chocolate bars and their Starbucks cups? Oh yeah, and there would be NO Starbucks stuff for sale inside the theatre, or within five miles of the theatre. We would only have GOOD coffee. If you want Starbucks, you have to bring it in, and since it's at least five miles away, it'll be cold! That'll teach 'em.

My ideal movie house would be kinda snooty! Cats would live in the back alleys, looking for crunchy popcorn in the dumpster. They would constantly be trying to get into the theatre, where it is warm.

a bigger number. If you've got that small a number, then you can't give the proper attention to artsy type unconventional stuff (if it deserves it) like the Decalogue.

I dont know about that, I dont really care for films based in religion although I have heard it may be an interesting watch.

I suppose we could run films on the restroom monitors:D

Did I mention the sushi bar?? and pistol range???

well, the plots of the individual movies aren't based on religion

Damn...You guys have some excellent ideas....But...I, personally, would probably leave out the sushi bar;) :D

maybe we could open a sushi bar across the street

i thought the gun range and sushi bar made a lot of sense ...
you could shoot your own fish and know they'd be fresh.

there would be more incentive for better marksmanship .. if you hit the slimy little sucker in the eye you dont waste as much meat !

It sounded like a good idea at the time, how else do you get the snobs in???

Who the hell WANTS the 'snobs in?


Okay...I just had another idea...A HUGE sign that says "NO SNOBS ALLOWED".....lol...



Actually...Snobs wouldn't like MY theater anyway ;)
