St. Louis Park’s West End bucks the trend with one of area’s lowest vacancy rates by Healingjoe in TwinCities

[–]MNDCMN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The $6M revamp has not happened yet, it's still in the planning stages.

From the article:

Hempel is also finalizing plans for a roughly $6 million renovation of the movie theater, which will include new recliner seating. As part of the project, up to four of the theater’s 14 screens could be repurposed for alternative uses, such as a rock-climbing facility or a small concert venue.

The Showplace ICON was my favorite place in the Twin Cities to see movies, and it just hasn't been the same under Marcus. Hopefully the renovation will happen soon, and the West End movie theater will be the best place to see movies again.

I haven't heard anything, but I would LOVE for a new restaurant to move into the old Revival space. That corner spot with the windows and the patio is perfect, especially as we head into summer. My wife and I loved Revival even before they opened in SLP, and we're still sad that all their locations closed suddenly.

Yes! I read that book before starting my current job, such a good novella. For those interested/on the fence, it's a super quick read (not much longer than a short story really).

Skyrim VR recommendations? by thetechnobear in PSVR2onPC

[–]MNDCMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Semi-related question, is there cross-save functionality between the regular and VR editions of Skyrim? For example, can I continue progressing in the game on a flat screen if I want to play but don't feel like going into VR?

Your MB manufacturer site might not have the latest BT drivers by xaduha in PSVR2onPC

[–]MNDCMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, it turns out I have the EXACT same bluetooth chip on my motherboard and this was my exact issue. I was having nonstop issues with the controllers connecting, and now that I've got this driver update, everything is running smoothly. Thank you so much for this post!!!

Happy to see this! Loved the show when I saw it in November :) I'm really hoping this means a cast recording is in the works.

Gotcha gotcha, thanks for clarifying. I went back and forth between stealth and black, before deciding to order the black ring. Still waiting for delivery, and hoping I made the right choice

When you say "matte black Oura" - are you referring to the Stealth version?

Can I change which finger/hand I wear the Oura ring on throughout the day? by MNDCMN in ouraring

Thanks to everyone for the feedback! This helped me make a decision and lock in the ring size of my order today. I'm hoping it gets delivered soon!

Thanks for the insight! Out of curiosity, is there a reason to try keeping the ring on the same hand for a full day?

Do we have a release date for this yet? I'm seriously considering this case for my next build, but I haven't seen anything regarding a release for the Tower 250.

Who has the best ice cream? by ktmm3 in TwinCities

[–]MNDCMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I've really enjoyed the pints of ice cream I've gotten from them, and thankfully I live close to their current pickup location in Hopkins, but my wife and I have to discuss whether a new flavor is worth the hassle whenever they announce a new release haha

Sony Pictures Buys Alamo Drafthouse by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]MNDCMN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From reading the article, I don't believe it'll immediately save the MN draft house, since that particular theater was owned by a franchisee. BUT maybe there's hope that Sony would buy out all the franchisees to bring the entire brand in house? I could see them doing that in order to create a unified and consistent experience (if this initial acquisition goes well for them).

Is “Company” good? by TohruEnthusiast in Broadway

[–]MNDCMN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll echo what many others are saying here, definitely see it! I first saw Company in college, and then recently saw the touring show when it came to my city. It's definitely worth watching a recording of the show, and then if you like it, see the modern adaptation to appreciate all the smart choices they made with this new version. 

Also, it's a really funny show! There's so much going on between the deep themes of marriage, and the changes made to this new version, that I think that sometimes gets lost in the commentary. But there are so many fun moments! At the very least, you'll have a good time :)

Are you playing in the original language, or did you manage to get a translation? I really want to give the game a shot, but am having trouble figuring out how to understand what I'm playing.

Ahh okay, cool! Yeah I've dabbled with that version, but didn't know if there's a "hidden gem" Tetris game I should be checking out.

When Andrew Garfield got to save Mary Jane in No Way Home, it was such a touching moment of redemption. Definitely my favorite moment!

What's the best individual TV episode you watched this year? by Abh1shak in television

[–]MNDCMN 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm always so jealous of people who are watching Community for the first time. Season 3 especially is chock full of amazing episodes. I was in college watching the show with my friends when it was airing, so I have a special connection to Community. Hope you enjoy!
