'you never know what you'll find when you put "tyler texas" into the search box !

Here’s hoping whoever purchases the property will turn it into a movie art house: a place to see independent movies, documentaries & classics .......... movies with more substance than White Chicks or Christmas With The Kranks.

Mantle is referring to an Alamo Draft House, and it will be opening at the old movie theater on the loop (no idea there was one, but that's what I was told) in January I believe.

That sounds correct.

How things work at the Alamo:

The Alamo Drafthouse Cinema "The Best Theater in Austin" is now in Houston. We serve a full menu of dinner and drinks to your seat while you watch the movie. The theater is laid out like a traditional movie theater, except every other row of seats has been replaced with a long narrow table for your food and drinks. Those who have never been to the Alamo may worry about disruptions during the movie, but we have devised an ordering system that minimizes interation during the film, allowing you to order, eat and enjoy the movie with minimal distraction. We recommend arriving early; seating begins 45 minutes before the show and there is always pre-movie entertainment on the screen while you wait for the movie. We have waiters that serve you at your seat; orders before the movie begins are taken in the traditional way. Once the movie starts if you need anything at all, there is paper and pencils at the table, write down what you need on the paper, stand the paper up on the card holder attached to the table. This acts as a flag, your waiter will only come by if he sees the card, otherwise he will stay out of your way so you can enjoy the film.

'looks like they show new releases only .......... an art house theater would have been nice, but this still looks interesting.

The Alamo Draft House is owned and operated by an old

fraternity brother of mine.

 

His idea has really taken off in the other cities and

should do well here in Tyler.

 

I'll definately give it a go!!
