Dollar Movies heads-up for B'ham moms

[Amy]

The dollar theater on Lorna has a bunch of kids' movies right now-
Happy Feet
Charlotte's Web
Flushed Away
Happily N'ever After (though I saw it and it is PURELY AWFUL and not worth the $1 I paid)

Plus for grownups there's-
The persuit of Happyness
and
Curse of the Golden Flower

We haven't seen Happy Feet or Charlotte's Web and I can't wait to take the kids!

[Hayes]

WOOHOO We might see Charlotte's web tomorrow. Where can I see what else is playing. Natrhan and I might go se something tonight.

If that link doesn't work, go to yahoo, click on movies (left of the screen), enter your zipcode in your upper righthand corner, and look for the Carmike 10.

Thanks for the heads up. I think I will take my older son to The Persuit of Happyness on Sunday afternoon. That is, if he is recovered from his cardboard box "campout" and fasting.

[guest]

Cristina- Kayla and I saw that when it first came out and it is a great movie! Kayla even loved it!

[heathersuwho]

I bet Erica would love Happy Feet and Charlotte's Web. Has anyone been brave enough to take a baby to the movies during the day? How did it go? I think he would probably just sleep and eat.

[cflanagan]

I use to take my older son when he was a baby/toddler. The minute the lights dimmed, he fell asleep.

[guest]

Awesome, we've been wanting to see happy feet and Pursuit of happyness.

Thanks for the heads up

[heathersuwho]

I figure if I take the kids and they don't behave I'm only out a couple of bucks . . .

[marcysmom]

Oh, thanks so much for the heads up!! I've always wondered why they never seem to have any kids movies showing there. We've always loved dollar theaters...my hubby and I used to go on many dates during college to the dollar theater! :)

[Christi]

Sweet!

I've worn Ryan to two. I had to stand and sway for awhile in one, but it was no biggie because he was in the wrap and we were both comfy.

I miss Decatur not having a dollar theatre. We used to have one but not anymore.

[Christi]

Where is this theater?

[AmyBee]

It's on Lorna Road, in Hoover. The Carmike, I think.

Thank you for the heads up. Hubby took the kids yesterday to see "Happy Feet"!!!!

[guest]

I'm thinking of going to one Monday afternoon, anyone else wanna go?

[Christi]

Yeah, let's go!

[guest]

OK, Happy Feet plays at 4:10 today,
Christi???? Anyone wanna go????

I'm waiting to hear from my hubby, to see when he's getting off work. We haven't seen much of each other this weekend cause he was working at the home and Garden show sooooooo if he's getting off early I might not go, or better yet i'll get him to go too.

But chances are he's working till 6 and Arden and I will head to the movie's this afternoon!


So 4:10, Lorna Road , Carmike 10 $ 1.00theater....anyone?

[Christi]

Do you have the # for the theater?

[guest]

looking it up

[guest]

address:
3443 Lorna rd
#822-5187

[guest]

OK, we didn't make it, hope nobody went thinking they would meet me there. We are at the library and having too much fun to break away for a movie. Cool with me. We still wanna see Happy Feet so maybe later this week.

[Christi]

We didn't go either, I took a much-needed nap. But I'd like to go later this week, too, so lmk when you're free!

[Jodie]

:noway: Ok, didn't know the Carmike 10 turned into a dollar theater!! When did this happen? How long have I been in my little bubble called Montevallo?

We can go to the movies now!!:happydance:

[momtotwogirls]

Is it a pretty decent theater? clean, seats in working order?, popcorn not $6?
I want to go to Happy Feet too!!

[guest]

It's decent for a buck. But not stadium seats or Rave theater space, like we are all spoiled to and accustom to these days. It's the same old theater that's always been there it became a dollar theater years ago, don't remember when. I too want to see Happy Feet, but ofcourse it will be out on DVD soon but still, going to the movies is fun! I can't remember the popcorn prices but I know we bought some :corn: yum

So anyone wanna go say......Wednesday?
WE have zoo class till 3:30 but if it's still showing at 4:10 we could make that.
I'll double check times and repost later to see if anyone is interested in meeting us there.

[momtotwogirls]

We might try and meet you. Although we might be going out of town. We'll see. :)

[Christi]

Wed is good for me!!

[guest]

Ok, I think we are gonna go Wednesday but we are gonna wait till hubby gets off work and go to the 7pm showing. Anyone else wanna go?
I know it's late but we will be leaving town the next day so i thought to include him and he was glad, he wants to see the silly penguin movie too :)

Anyone else?

[Christi]

7 is too late for us, that's bedtime. Have fun!

[Hayes]

Popcorn is still expensive. However, like most theaters, large drinks and popcorns get free refills. I bring paper cups and paper bags so my kids can share better.

[etorres]

I didn't know we had a dollar theater here either...I think we may go on Wed. night, if anybody wants to join us :)
