Well you have even days and you have odd days.

Brownwood Theater
 
Very sadly, I believe the Brownwood Theater will go the way as the Spanish Springs theater

I sure miss going to this movie theater. Anyone have any reliable information on when it will re-open?

Probably when they reopen the theater in Spanish Springs. Oh wait, aren’t they making that into apartments?

Scene 1,take 1, action, roll!!
 
Couldn't agree more.
Having a modern movie theatre to call our own, within our villages, is what lends a sense of grandeur to our lifestyle choice here .
To not have it anymore is evidence of decline.

we'll see.

The focus is on expansion and development south of 44 and south of the turnpike not renovation.

I rent movies from Redbox kiosks weekly, they even have deals where they take a $1.25 off and I often end up paying as low as 79cents. You can find kiosks at Publix, Walmart, Walgreens, Circle-K in Lady Lake as well as many other places. You can even order the movie you like online, go to kiosk, put in your credit card and movie will come out. You have to return it by 9Pm the following day. Enjoy !

Probably the morse family wants to turn the theater into apartments.

We have always gone (1-3 times per week) to the AMC at the mall in Leesburg. We have talked to lots of Villagers there that have started going there. The experience is so much better, in many ways, for those of us who prefer movies on a big screen; and much less expensive if you subscribe to their A-list program. ($23.49 with tax per month for up to 3 movies per week). All recliners, advanced reserved seating, large modern screens etc. Yes, it's a bit of a drive, but well worth it; and we have the time; plus, we combine the movie outings with other errands, dining out, etc.

The AMC in Leesburg has headphones you can borrow for free to listen to the movie through.

That's my reason for not going to the show. Too many self absorbed people who think the world revolves around them.

I do have to get up when nearing the two hour mark though as my prostate is not what it used to be. Summer Movie Calendar 2022 << Rotten Tomatoes – Movie and TV News

The AMC in Leesburg has the big screens and cutting edge sound technology. It's the largest movie chain in the world. We are very lucky to have one so near.
