barkMemberWay to go Admiral for bringing in more live music to the community. You’re going in the right direction.

AlkiDebbieParticipantWe need to support local businesses like the Historic Admiral Theater. I don’t like the crowds of newly released movies anyway. It’s much more enjoyable to watch movies after all the promotion has passed. I don’t mind waiting in order to patronize our local establishments.
This weekend I’m going to go see Wall-E. : )

HomerParticipantI completely agree but I would like to see the Admiral Theater play the movies that they do bring in for longer, say over at least two weekends with later showings. They always seem to come and go so quickly and while on a weekend, their latest showing is sometimes 6pm!
One other suggestion while I’m on my soapbox, how about after 7pm, make it adults only by selling pizza and beer/wine to enjoy while watching your show. They do this down in some Portland theaters that are set up such as the Admiral Theater and it works great. Tons of adults at night but still plenty of shows to take the kids to as well. Just a thought. Could bring in more business and money with the overhead that’s on beer/wine!

JenVMembergood thought, Homer – I have been to the Baghdad Cafe and Theatre in Portland where they sell beer and pizza and show second-run movies. Great place, and it would be neat to have that here…but they would have to retrofit it somehow to have someplace to set your food and drink down.

AlkiDebbieParticipantFor those interested the Admiral is a venue for several of the Gay and Lesbian Film Festival movies on Oct 24th and 25th. I might go see one with my nephew. I joined PFLAG for him last year.

guidosmomMemberAlkiDebbie, way to go! :) Thanks also for posting about the film festival. I wasn’t aware of it.
I love the Admiral Theater, but would like to see fewer “teen” type movies. I’d love to see a mix of what they currently have, as well as independent, foreign, maybe older movies for fun. I’d also love to see “adults” only after a certain time. The theater near my parents house has an “adults only” section that serves beer and wine as well as food.
