WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! PAAAAARTYYYY!!!!!!!
Says Executive Director Lyall Bush, “Acquiring a liquor license [as of April 22] will make the Film Forum that much more a forum, a place where people can gather, linger and talk. We encourage people to come early or stay after a movie, meet up with friends and discuss what they’ve just seen.”
The Film Forum plans to offer a house red and white wine, with a higher-end selection of red, and three choices of beer. Says Holmes, “As much as possible we will focus on Washington and Oregon breweries and wineries. Once we get settled we plan to change the menu quarterly and make connections with what’s playing in the cinemas.”
Over time, the organization will make adjustments in their lobby to better accommodate patrons who choose to arrive early for a drink. A plan for bench seating and cafe tables is in the works, among other updates.
WOOOOOOOO!!! GATHER LINGER TALK CAFE TABLES WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Sounds fun, Lindy!
And what if your not into drinking wine?
@2 (reads post above about breweries and wineries)
There’s always Grape Ne-Hi …
Great. Drunks at movie theaters. Perfect. There goes any semblance of decent audience behavior.
Took 4 posts. My bet was 6.
well, at least i’ll know who the drunken idiot sitting behind me will be.
Awesome. Can we drink in the theater during the movie like at Cinebarre? That would be even awesomer.
fuck yes, now I don’t have to sneak in whiskey
@4,
I’ve never experienced shitty audience behavior at NWFF, probably because the people who attend movie screenings there take cinema seriously.
Yeaah!! Gotta love the no no juice!

That’s GREAT! Except that, maybe, spending money on a new projector bulb (so the films they show don’t look like shit) or a nice, standard 30×70′ screen might be more in keeping with an organization that purports to love cinema.
@the shape perhaps the liquor sales will help towards those goals? While I agree that they could use better projection in their smaller theater (the larger theater seems perfectly fine to me, maybe I’m not picky enough) the screen sizes seem appropriate for the rooms they’re in no?
and… our new projector for Cinema 2 just arrived this week. Better projection AND booze!
