But it's Indy! Plus it's in Wrigleyville. Big yuppie town. Very nice area. Not bad considering I only live about 15 minutes away. Can't wait to see these bad boys on the big screen.

While you're there bug the management about getting the rest of the films, (you know ask questions, but don't be TOO pushy!).
Well I've been to a flagship cinema before around here, and they are soooo nice. I called yesterday, within like an hour of your post to see about getting tickets, and the guy said their "classics" never sell out, so I'd be fine getting tickets. I honestly said to him, "what?!" "How could Raiders not sell out?!" I was baffled.

well i just got back from the 11:30 am showing of raiders at "the music box theatre" in chicago
1.the screen was probably 3 to 4 ft high and 12 ft long --in a theatre that was the size of a three car garage!
2.the print was pretty good actually with a few green lines that popped at times but what can you expect from a old print?
3.sound was good for dolby surround ---which means not 5.1 surround
4. overall not a bad viewing would have been nicer to see it on a bigger traditional screen , but it was , what is was .
my son and i went in our fedoras ( he was dressed in his indy costume ) i just wore my hat and jacket, some people asked to take pics of us , and i heard another patron say he had seen others at the midnight showing wearing the hats too.
so that was my experience seeing the film back on the big screen --- my umpteenth time and my sons first time seeing RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK
Oh man, indyclone, me and 2 other friends went donning our fedoras! I kept a lookout but didn't see anyone else wearing one. I must've missed you. Glad you enjoyed it though. I agree, the MusicBox screen is a bit small for the size of the theater, but it's the only place I know of that constantly shows great cult/classic films. Can't wait for the ToD and LC screenings. It's a great experience when it's Indy.
