| - Why it's good:
The "special engagement" titles, like Repo! A Genetic Opera, Rocky Horror, etc.
What's it not:
The good titles are only showing at late nite, and it's not uncommon to see listed showtimes for 9pm or midnight only for a few days. WTF? Why, on one hand, showcase cool indie movies, but on the other hand, still give preferential treatment to Twilight and Beverly Hills Chihuaua? That's not fair. Why can't the good movies be shown during the day for a change? Might that help get more people out there? I just don't get the whole "soccer mom movies" during the day, and "Rocky Horror kids" at night thing. (Do they magically become "better" movies at night?)
*Edited: In fairness to Chandler Cinemas for circumstances beyond their control (i.e., lazy-ass people who complain about the lack of 'culture' of this town but won't support independent films at a venue other than Harkins), I have bumped up the rating to 5-stars. Since this is a review of Chandler Cinemas, not the lazy-ass people who won't go there.
