A Sea Of Red

We've had these here in Texas for at least a decade or so. They vary wildly in quality. I have three different ones within ten minutes of my house that vary from 1 to 8 screens.

The one in Raleigh is cool. You can watch Monday Night Football on the big screen. Kinda like Movies 10 here in that the movies aren't exactly new. But the food is pretty good. The website however......................sucks.

Although, unlike Movies 10:

"Sorry, but we cannot allow unsupervised children at Raleighwood, as they tend to disturb other guests. Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult 21 years old or above. Well-behaved children are very welcome to attend a movie with their parents and guardians. Please take crying children to the lobby, immediately. Please do not bring children under 5 to shows starting after 6:00 p.m."

My wife & I watched the Haunting in Connecticut at Movies 10 a few months ago. We went to the late showing. Some dude brought his entire family, including 3 kids.....one was about 4...another was 2(ish)....the last was around 1.....what can he possibly be thinking that would lead him to believe it was a good idea to bring those kids..to a 9:00pm showing? The kids starting crying.....someone complained & the family was asked to leave after 30 mins.

They have a few theaters like that in New England. They are pretty enjoyable and the food usually is good.

Or the fact that he brought them to "Haunting in Connecticut"... That's even more disturbing.

Wow, you aren't joking. That's straight out of 1995. I'm surprised Venue Communications put their name on it at the bottom. Although their website's not that bad http://www.venuecom.com/

i just remembered theres actually two of these by my house in barrington. one is alot more old fashioned with tables in the theatre kind of thing, and the other is way highscale, like $30 a ticket and alot nicer food.
