We went to a matinee of Two Towers on Block E on Dec. 31. Our tickets were
$5 apiece. There were about 5 other people at the showing. The seats were
great, but the staff kept walking in, talking on walky-talkies. My son had
been there two other times and said the theaters had been just as empty. He
also warned me not to bother checking out the price of popcorn since it was
outrageous.

Just a little warning. A Borders employee told me that over the lunch hour,
at the Block E  Borders, there is an extra half percent tax on food.

I may be totally out of the loop, but an ice cream on E Block for $3.50
before tax seems way out of line.
