I know a lot of people love Alamo Drafthouse, but my experiences with the one south of downtown Dallas were never great.

That’s unfortunate: it seems like a great experience. They’re blaming it on reduced customers since COViD. However, anecdotally, i and most people I know, may go to the theater less but are more willing to spend more for a better experience. I’ll only goto a few movies this year, but they’ll be in iMax.

I was excited when they finally announced a location in Boston, but I have to admit to never having gone there. Now that I neither live nor work downtown, it’s not especially convenient. At least as importantly, it’s a frustratingly crowded area that’s just annoying to deal with

While I’m a big proponent of transit and Boston does it pretty well for US cities, there’s no practical transit or park and ride from where I live - it would quickly turn into a day trip, rather than an evening entertainment
