  • Well…it is an iconic movie theatre, part of the old Hollywood landscape…

    Tell ya what: this time it stays, just because of its connection to cinema history and the many important premieres it hosted. It would have been nice having a few sentences from you why you thought it belongs here though (I get the [email protected] connection).

    Or were you looking to take up a collection to buy? 😉

    • I really hoped there'd be something like a "Classic Theatre" or "Movie Palace" community at lemmy.film--but alas. It ended up in here because the others available seemed even less appropriate.

      And, yes, I have personal history with the theater--most recently having seen LICORICE PIZZA there 5-ish times when it opened there. (I also saw the original TRON first-run, and once sat next to "Urkel" for the first STAR WARS re-issue.)

      I think we should attempt to convince Paul and Maya and Quentin to buy the place.

        Well, my esteemed cinematic colleague, you have friends in high places here at lemmy.film. 🤣

        Seriously though, if you'd like to create a "Classic Theatre" or "Movie Palace" community here at lemmy.film, your wish is our command! I personally think your idea would be a perfect fit. You can even be the ringleader moderator of said community if you like. Just follow this link and post a request for your community. Easy peasy.

        That goes for all of you popcorn-munching slobs here! 😁🍿📽 Don't be shy! Got an idea for an apropos community here at lemmy.film? Follow this link and bombs away!
