I don't have Starz, but do have the Sundance and IFC channels, which i watch quite a bit. But you know me: I still like going out to the theatre to share the experience with a crowd. And there's something irreplacably fun about watching my wife happy as a bug in a rug as long as she can sit up i

Too bad the Oriental lost some of its old flavor and purpose, but that happens a lot in cities. Atlanta's art houses are typically places that show mainstream and indie films too, but they hold on to a good flavour. The food should always be unique at an arthouse. The Tara here used to pop thei

Keith, I live in Milwaukee ("a great place on a great lake!")and my fair city has two art house theaters: the Downer and the Oriental, both owned by the Landmark Theater Company. The Oriental used to be a glorious old-time movie palace with balconies and everything done up in classic Mandarin

Funny! We have about three or four art house theatres here in Atlanta. As can be expected, all are closer to the downtown area, rather than out in the 'burbs. They're the places to go to see things like The International Tourney of Animation, Miyazaki's movies, limited releases like "Persepolis"

Here in Milwaukee "Slumdog" is only playing at Art Houses. I saw it at an antiquated theater where I hadn't seen a first run movie since Quentin Tarantino's "Jackie Brown" played there in the last millennium. Man, it is cold as heck here in Wisconsin and I had to stand in a line OUTSIDE to pu
