I kinda like Keene!

I want a digital cinema too. I'm tired of scratches on the film.

Build your own.

Actually my friend and his dad built a theater in their attic about 4 years ago. Complete with a remote controlled screen, LCD projector, old theater seats, a couch, a massaging chair, and a refrigerator.

As far as strip bars, the zoning rules apparently say it has to be X distance from schools, playgrounds ,etc etc, and that it's not financially viable for any adult joints to open up because of the rules.

Activism opportunity!

My response exactly.  When I was living in New York City, there was a video store that started showing classic movies in their back room at night.  They picked really fantastic movies and drew enough of an audience to expand.  Soon they stopped using a VCR and started actually projecting films.  As the popularity increased they made enough money to install a bigger screen, real theater seating, and eventually they had a sweet little indie movie theater operation going.

Nowadays with blueray technology, doing something like this would be even more feasible.

If I had my own theater I'd ban kids and sell booze.
I'd also have a strict noise policy.
That's basically why theaters suck, too many assholes.

[Russell Kanning]

I like watching movies at home ... and we have a tiny screen.
If you love watching movies on the big screen with stadium seating, Keen is not a great choice.

[Puke]

I like my TV just fine.
I'm just fantasizing about cinemas.

You mean like they have in Germany?

I first saw "Red Dawn" in a theater in Germany. They had a bar in the back, and the seats in front of you had a shelf where you could put your drinks. [and Red Dawn was so simple I didn't need sub-titles  ]

Awe man. I'd love a good Cinema and Drafthouse. They have Chunky's in Nashua and I've enjoyed it both times I went there. First time was when I just drove by while exploring Nashua after Porcfest and it caught my attention. I wandered in and saw Shrek, still a new release for $7, and had a couple beers served to me while sitting in a comfy leather rocking chair.

[FTL_Ian]

Do they vend alcohol at the Colonial?

I ended up landing in Porc Central in Manchester like I originally planned. Maybe I'll move to Keene in the future, though!

It's a good short-term plan.

Yeah, we have a shortage of porc houses in the area.     I landed at porc central first as well.  You're welcome to visit anytime.
