OUR ABSOLUTELY FANTASTICAL SMALL TOWN QUAINTLY OLDE MOVIE HOUSE
On a different site I recently read a bad review of our old movie house by some cretinous Knobs from Snobville who say we should have a new one.

I was surprised today when we went to see Wreck it Ralph breaks the internet at the matinee when. my youngest son dropped his popcorn. I went to get him some more, but the lady behind the counter at the concession stand snapped at me that the stand closed at 3:00 and I couldn't get anything.
She was correct, it was 3:05, so I will just buy my boys concessions at a different stand next time. Since that is the only one at this theatre, I guess we will be watching our movies...
