Quick update for our Sunday activities. I've executed the contract with the Drafthouse this afternoon so we're locked in for that event.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Alamo Drafthouse, it is a state of the art movie theater where, instead of ordering concessions of questionable quality, a full menu of snacks, entrees, deserts, and beverages is available and served by waitstaff that comes to your seat. This is a concept that has caught on in various places around the US but it was pioneered right here in Austin.

We'll be showing Airplane! in all its corny glory, but I'm very happy to announce that this will be the Drafthouse Action Pack version of the movie. This is an interactive movie experience where the movie is presented as a quote-a-long, and yelling out your favorite lines is encouraged. There are also a few contests and movie-themed props to enjoy as well. Typical movie experience this ain't.

The entry cost for this event should be around $50. This includes admission to the theater, the quote-a-long version of the movie, a menu where you can select an appetizer, entree, and dessert of your choice, tax, and gratuity. All beverages, alcoholic or otherwise, are available and will be placed on your own individual tab. A preview of the menu is available by clicking here.

More news as we make it.
