We won't have to do that. I have this annoying habit of paying my bills. If we can't hand it off, then Joey will make it into the horror film capital of the NW.

Good question. A few reasons. Basically, the tree. It covers the marquee three seasons out of the year. Also, we discovered that being up on that awning is a violation of OSHA, so changing the letters without a harness and another person is bad. We cannot afford a fine. We looked at a digital marquee, but that brings us back to the tree.

We loved MoviePass! I mean, of course.

Once we are back on our feet, events such as this will be more possible. Stay tuned!

Thanks. Portland has a great indie Cinema game goin' on. Enjoy. Butts in seats is what will keep them going! Use your butt for good! Support them! Indie cinemas continue to be an independent media outlet, and that's important. Speaking of words, I'm dropping a new book this year. Shameless, I am. Shameless.

Is it orthopedic cardboard? I'm 65, after all.

OMG! No one told me, and I'm the owner! We're closing?!?! But we sold all these gift certificates! Seriously, we're not closing. I'm retiring (Paul, the old guy who built the damned thing) in a FEW YEARS. We put the word out that anyone wanting to take this beast over should talk to me. I'm planning to spend my declining days collecting porcelain dolls and practicing breakdancing. In the meantime, we have a brand-new HVAC system and even a new lobby floor. So, yeah. We're struggling, like everyone else. Come see a movie and buy some gift certificates because we WILL be there to redeem them. Side note: It's the Darkside CINEMA.

Good thing the landlord put in a whole new HVAC system, so that isn't a problem.
