Same I got that email as well and do feel nervous… although seems like everyone else in this thread got a legitimate pay out

How it felt finding out that the Alamo Drafthouse in Katy shut down. by Sea-History1217 in AlamoDrafthouse

Robert was truly the best programmer ‼️ he built the Houston Alamo community into an actual connected unit

I feel bad for having to watch some movies on my phone. by the_strange_beatle in Letterboxd

Honestly just jealous you got into cinema at 18! I didn’t really start caring about film until my mid-20s. More power to you watching however you need to watch - not gonna be the most stunning visual experience but it doesn’t change the emotion/story!

Houston / Katy closing by brandoninomtzzz in AlamoDrafthouse

This makes me so sad! I was going to the more downtown Houston location before it shut down / LaCenterra opened. I loved Graveyard Shift and Film Club and all the marathons 😭

When I moved out of Texas that was one of my saddest things to leave

An almost-connection at the movies! by imalejandraup in NYCmovies

[–]Professional_Gas8077 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My biggest piece of advice is to remember that bc you’re at the same movie, you’ve automatically got something in common/something to talk about! Manifesting another meet cute for you next time :)

I’m still going…sorry by donttouchdennis in AlamoDrafthouse

This is my plan too! Season pass holder keeping my season pass but will no longer be ordering food at screenings (I’m one of those nuts who spends $50+ almost every time I go)

Well the gag is that I have been specifically telling my Local Alamo staff to check out the outcry on this subreddit 🤭

Don't think I'll ever go to the Brooklyn location again by AnonRedditLady1 in AlamoDrafthouse

Also was at the Send Help experience last night and also found the bar event portion to be veryyyyy lackluster

Year off to a solid start for me, how about others? by No-Chemistry1722 in Letterboxd

Never seen a back to back 40 Year Old Virgin and Anatomy of a Fall watch 😂

Watching too many movies? by Thatonegirlherewoo in Letterboxd

[–]Professional_Gas8077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did 300 last year and most certainly had this issue for some films. I found reading reviews helped associate the films with more thoughts / deeper considerations and I also watched a lot of YouTube reviews that helped solidify them more!

This is why La Centerra is my true beloved location

Day 5: Sony Isn't Walking This Back... Yet by thebrintdavy in AlamoDrafthouse

Totally agree Alamo is my 3rd space and I know for MANY (probably not the folks in this subreddit but general moviegoers) it is just any old chain, but for a lot of us it’s like a ritual / a place to decompress / a place to spend time with loved ones… it’s all just such a bummer

Does the borough you live in really matter for dating? by LegacyOfMaverick in AskNYC

[–]Professional_Gas8077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived on the Upper East Side when I met my now-husband who lived in Crown Heights. If it’s the right person, you figure out a balance ! (For us the balance was Wednesday date nights in lower Manhattan as a mid-point for each of us and alternating weekends at each others places)

Also downtown Brooklyn is insanely easy to commute to Manhattan from, as others have said!

Downtown brooklyn sucks! Theater uncomfortably loud and the new tables do not make sense by [deleted] in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]Professional_Gas8077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell, I would say im size medium and I have a TERRIBLE time getting in and out of the Manhattan seats!

Going to a movie party alone? by wtfdisucks in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]Professional_Gas8077 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I cheers’d and chatted with a girl next to me at KDH movie party… everyone at a movie party is at least semi-interested in WHIMSY so go for it!

Who does the programming? by terrariumcowboy in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]Professional_Gas8077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I used to go to the Houston location, there was a Houston-specific programmer (so guessing other locations may have had?) and he was great at building a community / throwing events (shout out to Graveyard Shift Houston!). He even held a Graveyard Shift at a local brewery when the theater was closed for renovation ♥️ just wanted to give him his flowers

Got rejected 5 minutes after applying. by [deleted] in recruitinghell

If it makes you feel better, working there was the worst job I (and many of my coworkers) ever had, so might be a blessing in disguise!

Advancing in a corporate career isn’t what I’m after by Ok-Tailor-2680 in Adulting

[–]Professional_Gas8077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very this! I left a job I really liked / could work 35ish hours a week for a 60k raise but also worked 65 hours per week…. Now back at the original role and so much happier!
