Turn Off Your Cell Phones! Alamo Drafthouse in Richardson Has an Opening Date!

It's here! Finally! After having multiple amazing experiences at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin and being lucky enough to go on the Magical Mystery Bus Tour...

The Long-anticipated Alamo Drafthouse Richardson Opens August 16^th

Since 1997, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema has provided a unique combination of both theater and restaurant: showing first-run movies, independent film, and alternative content, while offering in-theater food and beverage service.  Dubbed by Entertainment Weekly, as “The Best Theater in America,” by Time Magazine as “The Best Theater Ever,” and by CNN International as “One of the Top 10 Theaters in the World,” Alamo Drafthouse offers a movie-theater experience unlike any other in the world.

The extensive menu features an array of freshly prepared food made in-house from scratch with a wide selection of craft beers, great wines, cocktails and adult milkshakes.  Alamo’s attention to detail in film presentation and programming has made it a second home to movie fans all over the world, and Dallas/Fort Worth’s first Alamo opens in Richardson Friday, August 16, 2013.    

Setting Alamo Apart

“People always ask us what makes Alamo different from other theaters. It is our culture and our people,” said Bill C DiGaetano, Alamo Drafthouse DFW, COO. “Alamo always has been and will always be for movie lovers, by movie lovers.”

“Since we are a theater for movie lovers, we took the 3 biggest annoyances of theater goers OUT of the Alamo equation.  These include:  concessions that cost more than your first car, advertisements longer than a line at the DMV, and talking/texting on cellphones during a film.  At Alamo, you won’t find any of these!”

Future Folk Give The Best Intergalactic Press Conference

THE HISTORY OF FUTURE FOLK is a clever romantic comedy musical with amazing songs that I got to see during last year's Fantastic Fest. It tells the very "real" origin story of the bluegrass duo, Future Folk, as its two members, who hail from another planet and discover music on planet Earth. Think an outer space version of Flight of the Conchords. It opens in NY this Friday, and LA next Friday June 7th, while hitting VOD on June 4th. Recently, Future Folk have taken to the press circuit to promote their movie. Check out the video as well as the synopsis for the movie below.

THE WORLD'S END Trailer Is As Good As A Cold Pint

Edgar Wright is one of my favorite directors. His movies have always struck a chord with me in one way shape or form. THE WORLD'S END, his reunion with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, looks to be just as funny as the other movies he did with the duo, plus it's about a pub crawl with evil robots! What could go wrong?

Thanks to Edgar Wright for point out the release of the trailer, which you can check out below.
