5 Points Theatre: Midnight Show   no comments

Posted at 3:25 pm in rivercityvibe

My third favorite movie (and favorite John Hughes* movie) Weird Science is playing at the 5 Points Theater at midnight tonight. I am attending in my yellowest shoes. It’s going to be mighty. I presume you all, being people of exquisite taste, patronize the 5 points Theatre (note spelling) all the time. They have beer.

Which reminds me, I have recently begun a long post which, O reader, I may or may not inflict upon you shortly. It’s subject is Quality of Life. The fact that I can go to a midnight showing of a movie like Weird Science, on my bicycle, is what we call a ‘key indicator’ when it comes to measuring Life Quality.

If only it wasn’t so bastarding cold.

What’s up with that? Seriously.

I am overcome with excitement to tell you that a movie that ranks alongside such greats as Weird Science, the Empire Strikes Back and Withnail and I, is playing at the 5 Points Theater on Friday.

To clarify and even underline my point, that’s the theater that serves beer during the show. Which I love. The movie is the Coen brothers’ classic, The Big Lebowski:

He's a pederast, Dude.

The show starts at midnight. I will be there in my Walter Sobchak shades, fortified by a number of White Russians.  To get you in the mood, here’s Kenny Rogers with I Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In):
