On this episode, I am joined by fellow Smug Film contributors Jenna Ipcar and Ned Martin. We discuss all things movie theaters\u2014from our best and worst movie theater experiences, to the best theaters we’ve ever been to. As always, we go on tangents along the way,\u00a0take a quick break for a movie joke by comedian\u00a0Anthony Kapfer<\/a>,\u00a0and close the show with questions from our mailbag.<\/p>\n

If you enjoy the podcast, be sure to subscribe on iTunes<\/strong>, and leave a rating<\/strong> and a comment<\/strong> on there as well. Doing this helps us immensely\u00a0<\/em>as far as our ranking on there, which is what allows people to be able to discover us. Word of mouth<\/strong> is always best of all though, so spread the word!<\/strong><\/p>\n

By the way, the beautiful painting above is by artist Marianne Kuhn, and it is called Naro Cinema Norfolk VA. You can see the full painting and buy prints of it at FineArtAmerica<\/a>.<\/p>\n
