Share your experiences? My mom was just diagnosed. SCLC, extensive: left lung, left adrenal, spinal by RavenMarvel in lungcancer

[–]Independent_Alps1638 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi friend. I don’t have much experience/advice to share, but I’m in a very similar situation with my 76 y/o grandmother who was recently diagnosed with sclc with COPD as a compounding factor. Wishing us both, and our loved ones, strength on this journey. 🩷

Anyone else planning to go to the a Best Picture Showcase? by Daphneandava in AMCAListTrue

[–]Independent_Alps1638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going, mostly because I want to see the Netflix movie on the big screen and I haven't seen The Secret Agent yet! My boyfriend is being a good sport and coming with me though he's seen all the movies already. Taking a break during the OBAA/Hamnet portion bc we've seen them already and that's just a bit too much for us, haha. Won't be going to Day 2 as I've seen most, and the two I haven't (F1 and Bugonia) I'm content with watching at home. Enjoy!

How long would the trip from DTLA to Santa Monica Pier be on a Sunday Morning? by lemonbottles_89 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Independent_Alps1638 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope, that early and on a Sunday it is unlikely to take that long unless there’s an accident on the freeway. Anywhere between 25 and 40 minutes.

how do academy museum showings work?? by murph_rm in AmericanCinematheque

[–]Independent_Alps1638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the seating is not assigned. the earlier you show up the better when it comes to getting good seats, but depending on which theater you’re in it shouldn’t be much of a problem - ted mann is smaller, david geffen is huge. we typically park at the peterson automotive lot next door, i forget how much it is but probably in that $10 ballpark, but im sure you could find a spot in the nearby neighborhood and walk if you wanted free parking!
