    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.

        It did occur to me to create a theater-related community. I’m wondering if it should be broader? Should it encompass ALL movie theaters/exhibition–not just the classic palaces of yore? 🤔

        I Also noticed you had a few film format communities–but were missing a “70mm” one…
