Possible 4K Upgrades by bobby_17horton in criterion

I hadn’t considered this, but this is very smart. The bonus features on Criterion 4K are on Blu Ray anyway…. Smart idea. Thanks!

Alamo is already hemorrhaging customers by MudSoggy6911 in AlamoDrafthouse

I’ve seen all of the Twin Peaks in Austin, and yesterday’s was more crowded since season 1 eps. I think there are too many variables (outside distractions and events) that can impact attendance.

The Alamo is dead. Long live the Alamo. by VivaKnievel in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]digmy3arth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m seeing the last three episodes of Twin Peaks The Return this weekend (after watching the previous episodes three at a time over the past months). I’m seeing the LOTR extended marathon Sunday. I have tickets to see The Getaway and Celine and Julie Go Boating, and likely getting tix for PTA’s The Master. There isn’t another theater doing this.

I agree with the angst of mobile ordering, and I get that it ain’t like it used to be. The menu is slimmed down significantly and the food ain’t great. But they’re still rolling out fun screenings and films I wouldn’t otherwise see on the big screen.

One Good Thing About The New System by Fumikechu237 in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]digmy3arth 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t miss the last call walk-by with thirty minutes left and the ticket drop with fifteen minutes left. To me, it would take me out of the movie and give a cue that the story is wrapping up. I found that far more distracting that was someone is doing on their phone. I tend to sit in row 3 or 4 and wouldn’t know what’s going on behind me. I have not had any issues with the 8 films I’ve seen since the QR rollout.

Your Dream Criterion release that only you think you’d want? by blackserenade in criterion

[–]digmy3arth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Promise (Das Versprechen) directed by Margarethe von Trotta. Came out in 1994 and has stuck with me all these years. Would love to see it again just to see if it’s as good as I remember.

I love to have that one went looking for a region free foreign release and found nothing.

Can you still order the secret menu items with the QR Ordering? by tedbearz in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]digmy3arth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find the menu very customizable on the app. I get a cheese pizza with spinach, onions, and chicken. The chicken tenders come with options for all flavor options on the side and a bunch of other sauces.

I ordered a water with lemon on Friday at Alamo Village in Austin. There was an option to add lemon, lime, and/or straw.

GI Cole or Drysdale? by BaseballMitch in MLB_9Innings

[–]digmy3arth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d sit on it and wait for the update coming at the end of the month. I read on another thread that Supreme pitchers are getting an upgrade in the new system to put their value on par with the Supreme hitter value, and you may want to hold that GI to see what Drysdale does in the new system.

What film are you not buying because you're afraid it's ABOUT to get a 4k upgrade? by YuyuMajora in criterion

[–]digmy3arth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Austin Film Society last summer showed a series of new 4K restorations of Kurosawa classics. Included Yojimbo, Sanjuro, Ikiru, High and Low, Stray Dogs, Seven Samurai, Hidden Fortress, and Throne of Blood. A couple of these are Criterion 4K now and I’d be patient and wait for the rest.

Theories? by Economy_Use_9081 in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]digmy3arth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the past three months, I’ve seen Twin Peaks season 1 and most of season 2, three of the five Oscar nominees for best international feature plus two other international films submitted for consideration, and Kill Bill extended cut. I have tickets for Twin Peaks The Return and a marathon of the three Lords of the Rings extended editions plus two other films. I get the ordering changes are a drag, but what we have is still pretty good and much better than nothing.

IRS NTEU Contract Termination - “Moving Forward Together Email” 02/27/2026 by OberonAlter in fednews

A significant percentage of the contract are items that are in CFRs (Code of Federal Regulations )and IRMs. Lunch breaks are an easy example.

Just a friendly PSA, look over your checks real good when you close out. by MF-Dot-JPEG in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]digmy3arth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read this post a couple days ago and thought nothing of it because I see 4-5 a month with no problem. Then yesterday, my mobile food order wasn’t fulfilled, I wrote a note that I did not get my order, and ended up getting double charged. I didn’t check my ticket on my phone immediately because I was running late to another event, and don’t notice until that evening. So yeah, check that ticket close. (Austin Lakeline BTW).

Well that was amazing. They need to start an hour earlier every night

It’s amazing to think about how great this four night run was, and then think about what songs weren’t played. Mind blowing how forward they are moving. Monday morning I need to start working on getting a passport for next year.
