mojosmomFINALLY!!!!!!!
Our neighborhood has been without a movie theater for more than 10 years. I'd have to traipse up to the near north side to see a first-run film. It was such a pain, I hardly ever did. I'd go to the Siskel Film Center, but that's for oldies, documentaries, art films, film festivals, etc.
Then they started renovating the old theater. It was supposed to open in December, but, this being Chicago, there were permit holdups. But it finally opened today.
This place is literally a five minute walk from my house. And it's cheap! $6 for matinées, $8 at other times. (And as of my birthday, when I turn 65, it'll be $6 all the time.)
I think I'll go see Lincoln next week.
