| - I went here last night with my boyfriend to watch Reel Steel (great movie by the way!) As with other reviews, mine is on the AVX theatre.
I have always like the concept of reserving your seats for a movie. It really takes the stress out of an otherwise very enjoyable afternoon/evening. Or maybe just for me as I am the type of person that needs to be in the theater at least 45 minutes prior to the show to ensure I get the seat I want...as in last, last row right in the middle. (I hate having people behind me because of the talking that inevitably goes on and/or the muddy shoes that I imagine to be a hair's length away...)
Anyways, the AVX takes that stress away, and for a premium (we paid 15.75/ticket) you can choose your seats. Not sure if anyone else experienced this, but my only only beef with the system is that you aren't allowed to choose seats with spaces in between other seats so you inevitably have to sit beside a random person (meaning you can't leave an extra chair between you and the other person). We ended up buying tickets for the last row which someone else had occupied. Because it was not busy, we just sat one row down. Which brings me to my other potential concern - there can always be people in your seats so hang tight to your tickets (for me, I always used to chuck them).
All in all, wouldn't come out of my way to watch the AVX. Seats are no wider but armchairs do lift up so you can cuddle or...
FYI! My boyfriend and I made the mistake of parking at the theater which cost us 20bucks!!! I am sure there are other parking lots around for less, but we were lazy. Not sure if this is the usual rate at this particular lot, or if it was taking advantage of the clubs around. Either way, can't beat the location (right at the theater).
