It can be worth it going to a big deal house for a big deal film. It can be great fun.
I went there for bat man returns, hustlers started running up and down the isles selling canned drinks between the trailers and the feature. When the bat logo hit the screen, before the curtains even opened , the audience lost its mind. Nothing like that will ever happen at home with a DVD.
I am grateful that I saw the old palace before it was cut up, and still had the grand chandelier hanging above the crowd. Too bad about the location going to crap. if you leave a late show, good lord.
Crime is not normal there either. I made the rookie mistake of parking on the street, where my car window was broken out for a bag of old shoes. The cops said, anything exposed is a target, on the slight chance it could be something better than what it seems.
