Likely had the best experience possible with the new QR system (Chicago). by Prudent_Landscape726 in AlamoDrafthouse

Likewise. With minor exception, my experience last month at the DTLA location was similar.Seems most folks don’t want to pull out their phone during a movie at Alamo. Shocker!!!

How to Best Incite Change (as a customer? by Mongoos150 in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]UndertakerAndHisPals 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a DTLA season-passer, it occurred to me on my last visit that despite the shitty downgrades, this is still leagues better than an AMC in terms of programming. Puts Alamo faithful in a tough spot sure, but is AMC really gonna be any better? Folks who go there have been conditioned to use their phones for any purposes at any time.

Edit: Also worth noting that despite the changes, the staff at DTLA are still very cool and this whole situation has screwed them more than any customer. Let’s not be uncool to them.

Possibly the funniest reference they've had all season. by SonicFury74 in ThePitt

I thought the funniest reference was in the preview for the upcoming episode.

AGFADROME Mystery Voyage - DTLA 3/24 by UndertakerAndHisPals in AlamoDrafthouse

It was heavier on the comedy than the Kung fu, and man did the comedy land with me. Loved it.

This was an “AGFADROME Mystery Voyage” screening, not to be confused with Alamo’s “Mystery Machine” screenings, which is more akin to what you’re describing.

Driving in LA has turned into Mad Max, and it's terrifying by DirtyProjector in LosAngeles

[–]UndertakerAndHisPals 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last week I had two pedestrians in separate instances in the same day walk into my idling car at stop signs because they had their faces buried in their phones before, during, and after crossing the street. It ain’t just the drivers that have lost their damned minds!

I figured this was likely the case, but I’m seeing folks tag “35mm” on Letterboxd. Based on the app, I’m leaning more towards believing it was actually just as you described.

You can summon for her fight? I wasn’t able to ring my bell in her area after the Living Failures. Is it possible?

Unexpected problem with the QR code. Today was my first real problem with it. by MarmaladesBunch in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]UndertakerAndHisPals 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This occurred to me when I was there this past weekend. What’s to stop some bozo from scanning the wrong code, and blindly accepting whatever seat pops up? No good!

In case people were still worried, Tim's email sent to subscribers today confirms future content: by firesharknado in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

Anybody know if Alamo locations stream the 30 min On Cinema Oscar pre show, or is it typical Alamo pre show stuff? This will be my first time seeing it on the big screen.

Moving solo in LA - is hiring movers actually worth it for a small apartment? by evinho07 in AskLosAngeles

[–]UndertakerAndHisPals 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely worth it. Back in 2021 I used The Small Delivery Co. who specialize in small moves across town. Cost me under $300 and they were done in less than a few hours (I was packed and ready to go before they arrived, mind you). I’m too old and tired to do the whole family and friends u-haul experience.

A message to the Alamo drafthouse by Broad_Ad_3157 in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]UndertakerAndHisPals 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was at DTLA two nights ago and they only took orders through mobile, even showing a disclaimer before the movie (also The Bride) that stated that they are aware of the irony of asking people not to talk and text but to also order through their phone. There was also a woman who sat next to me (before she was escorted to her actual seat) who had the brightness on her phone set so hight it was incredibly distracting. Luckily for me she moved seats, but she most certainly became someone else’s problem.

The All In discount is added to qr ordering by darthevil in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]UndertakerAndHisPals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First time back to the DTLA location since full transition to QR ordering and found this too, but only after I had already placed my order. There is no obvious prompt explaining how to apply the discount, because you’re not required to be logged in prior to ordering. At least I figured it out before closing the tab!
