I love the Admiral Theatre, grew up with it. This second-run movie house is still a good value, although I can still remember the days of $2 tickets. Nice, big screens in two theaters, and movies are worth going to if only for the truly odd slides they pop on the screen before a feature . . . it looks like the reject slides pulled from a family vacation to Hawaii in the late 70's, all blurry shots of tropical flowers and upside-down photos of palm trees. Check it out and see what you think. Even though the theater is falling apart in many ways; the curtain lined walls are falling down in many places and many of the seats are broken . . . they are oddly very touchy about putting your feet up on the seat in front of you and will forcibly tell you to remove them. The theater also features an ICEE machine that usually has a "white cherry" flavor, which is awesome because it is white, so you don't dye your tongue, but you get all the cherry flavor you might expect. As as befitting the name Admiral, there is a shipshape air about the place. Movies Ahoy!
