Also what kind of owner has his 17 year old son and 9 year old daughter work concessions during a private screening on a school day?

Wow people still on here. I really got sad when my former assist manager Marie told me they finally demolished it. But I feel DJT Cinemas didn’t have a plan on how to keep it going. I remember Tom and Don talking about how everything was already booked for the 07 summer and they could only get scraps. Why wouldn’t they plan ahead and get some blockbusters before opening. Also the reason the midnite movies failed, they wouldn’t give me a budget for advertising. They cut their own throats. They also had the lease on the culver 6. It was third run movies for $6, anyone know if it’s still around?

Ok F the Bannan Republic thing. That stuff was all news to me. I was standing in the door of the auditorium when he said it. As far as I know we have the lease till next may and the owners are planing to keep it for three. But we need more business definately! So Hint Hint Come to the Midnight Shows cause that will help us out alot! This week I should have flyers with all the midnite shows come by and pick some up. If anyone is coming to Joshua or Transformers I will be there (long hair, Blue shirt) you can talk with me if you have any questions.

D. Packard, I used to assist manage national and festival when mann still had it (national). I have wanted to do midnite shows but they never wanted too. Now I’m the GM for the National and the owners are letting me do what I want with the late shows. So again if anyone wants anything let me know. I’ll try to do what I can and I will post all the shows. Oh and Sicko will be opening at national june 29th.
