If they close the River Oaks, where will we go for the premieres of cinema classics like Farenheit 9/11 or Brokeback Mountin'?

I think the Gore global warming opus is playing there now.

I seldom go to B & N, Bookstop, or Borders anymore. I usually get books and music from Amazon these days. I really consider the Alabama gone since it stopped being a theatre and became Bookstop. I still remember that huge screen, where i saw the premires of movies like The Empire strikes Back, Alien, The Omen, etc

I go to B&N (usually the one on Westheimer near Sage, sometimes the one near home at Town & Country) if I have some time to kill.

If I know exactly what I want, I use Amazon.

Greenway (the subterranean Landmark chain theater near the old Summit) or the Angelika (downtown near Jones Plaza) or Alamo Drafthouse (which seems only to have retained the beer and Austin political leanings of the original) or the MFA or Rice University (both of which have a considerable share of leftist documentary screenings).

You won't miss those films coming to town. They'll still be here.
