    Frankenstein @ a local theater, go or not

    In Toledo we have a renovated theater and next week they have a one time showing of the Universal classic. Tickets are only $3.
    I know there are plenty here who have seen this movie as many times as myself. Would you, given this chance, go to watch a movie you've seen countless times only to have the experience of seeing it with a crowd on the big screen.
    I myself am torn, ill probably go because if nothing else im sure at some point after, if I don't go ill regret it.
    What say you, mego monster movie lovers?

        Go since the chance to see a classic monster movie at an actual theater may never happen again especially at that price.

              Widescreen long predates Frankenstein but Frankenstein was filmed in 1.37 : 1 full screen ratio.
              You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                GOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw the Creature from the Black Lagoon in Peoria for Halloween in 3D back in the 70's, and it was one of my favorite theatre experiences of all time.

                      Somehow I figured these would be the answers I'd see. 2 yrs ago I went to see WOZ at a large theater and it was pretty cool and on the flip side in the early 90's I had the chance to see Willy Wonka (one of my favorite movies ever) and skipped it. I regret not seeing it every time I think about it.
                      Well I am pretty sure I'm going to go now so, anyone in or around Toledo this Friday, Oct 21st, It'll be at the Valentine Theater, downtown at 7:30

                          Heck, I might drive to Toledo to see Frankenstein on the big screen. Kidding, but that would be so cool. Only way it would be better is if it was double feature with the Bride of Frankenstein.
