Cinerama

Line of people

I saw a line of people standing outside Cinerama again on the way home from work today. That happens a lot there.

Being only a few blocks from home (and playing such obviously popular selections), Cinerama would seem like a great place for me to go see movies. But they have an uncanny ability to pick movies that I have no desire to see and play them for weeks on end. I guess that means I’m not in their target market. So, despite the fact that I can walk to Cinerama in five minutes or less, I end up going there only about once a year — usually when friends really want to go see something there. Last week was a small exception to the rule. We saw Anger Management there, and it was pretty good. Definitely not a normal Cinerama film.

Most of the time, I have to be content to walk a few more blocks to Pacific Place or Meridian 16 if I want to see a movie I actually like.
