My money would be better spent on a bet that this theater won't last long at Redmond Town Center ...
Quoted: Would you pay $35 for a movie ticket, plus extra for popcorn?
What if it guaranteed no one could kick your seat?
An Australian theater chain opening in Redmond this fall is betting affluent audiences will pay three times the typical ticket price for plush, reclining seats equipped with call buttons for service, allowing them to order gourmet food, wine and cocktails from the theater's restaurant.
Village Roadshow Gold Class Cinemas will open at Redmond Town Center in October, replacing the AMC theater that closed earlier this year. ...
Exclusivity is key. Each of the eight auditoriums will have wide screens but no more than 40 seats arranged in pairs with ample legroom. The theater's restaurant and lounge will be open only to moviegoers. An online booking service will enable people to choose their seats; valets will park their cars.
The theater will offer some matinees, Burke said, with admission discounted to $20 or $25.

Did anyone hear the TAL segment on Springer a few weeks ago? It was fascinating...I honestly hope this goes off without a hitch and he gets rave reviews. I, for one, am hoping for a political comeback. Giving the commencement address at NW Law is quite a coup and a step in the right direction if all goes well.

The graduation committee thought Jerry Springer would be an appropriate speaker for this year's convocation. Most of the student body is opposed to this, but this administration is sticking by the committee's decision.

Yeah, the price is high, but other people in the theater is why I don't like going to the movies anymore. It might be worth it, especially if somebody will bring me a $5 pepsi at the press of a button. Nice!
I think there's definitely enough money in the area to support that sort of garish movie watching - and even people who don't go to the theater often might go if they REALLY wanted to see the movie without the distraction of people yelling at the screen.
