点评:My movie played in theater 4. The sound was perfect! Not at all blaring and overwhelming. Yay! The lights dimmed immediately upon the end of the previews and the beginning of the film which I appreciated. I paid $10 for a matinee show. (Tuesday matinee price is $7.) I also appreciate this pricing as compared to the $16 price of a ticket at Crossgates. Why would I pay $6 more? For the less comfortable seats? The rude crowds? The depressing unoriginal decor?
Then I blew it by paying $14 for a large soda and tub of popcorn. Lol. I asked the nice counter guy if the butter was real actual butter like it used to be and the he said yes but it was definitely not pure butter. I’m 56 and I have learned to distinguish between butter and oil. That butter was oil. Spectrum still has homemade baked goods! I did not sample. But next time I will go for a gluten free brownie!
The entryway and lobby have not had any upgrades in the last few years. Not any that I noticed anyway. I don’t think it needs upgrades either. They did a renovation a number of years ago when they added the larger lobby area where they used to hang artwork and they painted the walls interesting colors. I love the style and I like the familiarity of the place. It does hold a lot of memories for me. After my divorce, I came here at least two Saturdays every months for 5 years.
The ladies room off the lobby still feels claustrophobic to me. I always forget about the larger restrooms available near the theaters to the left of the concession stand. This theater has a LOT of movies now. I saw a thriller FBI crime story with Jude Law, looking like a 1970s heartthrob. The man is buff.
I may come back to see Bladiator soon. I have missed Spectrum. I plan to support it. There’s something I still love about going out to the movies. I don’t ever want Spectrum 8 to close again.
翻译:我的电影在 4 号影院放映。声音很完美!一点也不刺耳和压倒性。耶!预告片结束、电影开始后灯光立即变暗,我很欣赏这一点。我花了 10 美元看一场日场演出。(周二日场票价为 7 美元。)与 Crossgates 的 16 美元票价相比,我也很欣赏这个价格。我为什么要多付 6 美元?为了不那么舒适的座位?粗鲁的人群?令人沮丧的毫无新意的装饰?
然后我花了 14 美元买了一大瓶苏打水和一桶爆米花,浪费了钱。哈哈。我问那个好心的柜台人员,黄油是否像以前一样是真正的黄油,他说是的,但绝对不是纯黄油。我 56 岁了,我已经学会区分黄油和油。黄油是油。Spectrum 仍然有自制烘焙食品!我没有品尝。但下次我会选择无麸质布朗尼!
入口和大厅在过去几年里没有任何升级。反正我没注意到。我也不认为它需要升级。几年前他们进行了一次翻新,增加了更大的大厅区域,他们以前在那里挂艺术品,并将墙壁漆成了有趣的颜色。我喜欢这种风格,也喜欢这个地方的熟悉感。它确实为我留下了很多回忆。离婚后,我每个月至少来这里两个星期六,持续了 5 年。
大厅外的女厕所对我来说仍然有幽闭恐惧症。我总是忘记小卖部左边的剧院附近有更大的卫生间。这家剧院现在有很多电影。我看了一部由裘德·洛主演的惊悚 FBI 犯罪故事,看起来像 20 世纪 70 年代的万人迷。这个男人很有魅力。
我可能很快会回来看《刀锋战士》。我很想念 Spectrum。我打算支持它。我仍然喜欢去看电影。我再也不希望 Spectrum 8 再次关闭。
