Throwback: Did you used to go the $1 show?

[valet]

I have no idea if they still exist (not literally a dollar show of course). We had a couple here when I was a kid/young adult. One had hit movies that were close to go on video/dvd .

Then the other one had movies that were flops. Like those movies that would be in theatre for 1 week. I hated that one.

Did your family used to go the dollar show? What movies do you remember seeing? The last movie I remember seeing was "Hear no Evil" before the theatre clos

It was a dollar theatre that showed old kung fu movies, my pops used to take me and my cousins every other Saturday.
When we got home, my cousin and me would be outside kung fu fighting on each other making noise and shyt

There was this old azz lady on the block that came outside and told us to stop

I looked at her and said "bytch you dare to challenge my kung fu" like a drunken master or something...

She went and told my moms and we stopped going, cause they thought the movies had me cussin...

it was $2 here and we would stay in the theatre the whole day. it was just small screens not flop movies.

I feasted on dollar shows.

I used to go to Universal mall Cinemark.

Play Virtual On in the little shytty arcade across from the movies and then two bucks for a movie a few weeks after they premier .

They tore down the mall and charge 13 fukking dollars at Universal MJR now.

 

[SunZoo]

All the live long day lol

Sometimes I'd go alone sometimes not. Even when it was busy it was never a lot of people in one theater.

I think the last time I ate good at the dollar show was when I went to see Bowfinger like 3 times in one week

Yep Universal was the good one I was referring to. I can't remember the name of the one in Macomb Mall. Might google it. EDIT: Silver Cinemas. It was terrible because they showed the flop movies. They will have some good one once in a while. But overall it was bad to me.

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

The one in Ann Arbor, at the Briarwood mall, was deadass called DOLLAR MOVIES

 

[tuckgod]

Snuck in Riverdale but yeah

 

[Laidbackman]

I did when they first came out, and the movie was out for only two weeks, and it just left the regular theaters. I use to hit the One Dollar Theater in Riverdale, Md every other Thursday night, until it went downhill with those youngins, who needed a good butt kicking. I was actually within walking distance. Anyway, I wouldn't pay regular price anymore one they hit the scene, not even the matinee, unless it was a new version of King Kong, or Godzilla, or something like that. I think the last time I paid anything close to regular price, was Jurassic Park 1.
