4DX Review - Jurassic Franchise Continues…read more When I first heard about a new installment in the Jurassic Park franchise, the novice paleontologist in me was giddy like a schoolgirl. That excitement hit another level once tickets went on sale--she fully came out! This movie took a different turn than the previous ones, which I actually appreciated. It wasn't just the same old storyline rehashed. That said, it did have its share of slow scenes that didn't always lead anywhere. While the dinosaur action was fun to watch--and let's be real, that's why we're here--it still only made the grade of a solid C overall. Also, I really wish they had offered it in 4DX/IMAX. That combo would've made the experience much more immersive and thrilling.

I love that this place is local and I don't have to drive all the way to downtown. Definitely check out the Series Fest schedule and other events!

What a great way to enjoy a free movie "al Fresco" here in the Mile High City!…read moreDenver has some very unique and beautiful architecture. The buildings around Civic Center Park combine with the lush green grass and ancient Greece-feeling columns to provide a great venue for outdoor movies. This year the folks at Denver Parks combined with Kronke Sports to offer three free movies each presented by one of their sports teams. Last night the Colorado Avalanche marketing and promo staff were on hand giving out hats and other great promo items. Bernie the mascot made time for countless selfies with all the children. Miracle- the story of the 1980 Olympic USA Gold Medal winning hockey team was the feature free film. One of my personal favo's for sure! **PRO TIP** There was two food trucks and an ice cream truck to supply the eats- however no alcohol vendors Plan ahead to bring blankets and warm clothing as the temps do fall here at 5280.

Ogden Theatre sits on the heart of Colfax. It's filled with rich history and has welcomed…read moreincredible acts over the years. To me, it doesn't have the same allure and magic of some of Denver's rivaled clubs, though I appreciate its place in history. When it was built a hundred years ago, they probably never predicted that this old cow town would turn into as popular of a city as it has become. Attending an event here (or even at Fillmore a few blocks down) is chaos. Parking is extremely minimal, more like a major headache. The tour buses either park directly in front of the venue or on the sidestreet, the line to get in wraps around the building and with the surrounding Colfax chaos it's usually an overstimulating adventure just to make it inside. Ogden is bigger than Bluebird and smaller than Fillmore. Around 1500 capacity. I've seen two acts I really love here, Jerry Cantrell (of Alice In Chains fame) and Rival Sons. The venue floor is tiered and overall a decent setup. It's similar to Bluebird, different barriers separating one from the other. Sound is good, better if you're in the back, but if it's a band I love I'm getting as close as possible. They have two bars, and they do an adequate job serving the masses. You can't do anything about the prices, but occasionally you might find a deal on something. It's a concert, get a beer or a spirit and soda and get out of there! I'm sure I'll find myself here again and though it's not a favorite venue of mine, I can get down with the acts they bring in. If you can, uber there to avoid the parking situation!

BACKYARD MOVE NIGHT! Five star concept, 4 star execution. Call FunFlicks: They will (impersonally…read moreand robotically and probably electronically) set up an event for you. It will be so impersonal, that you will not be sure you are set up until a live person actually shows up at your door. What they do: They show up with a giant blow up screen that will fill your back yard. Then they attach speakers that rock your house and sound like the inside of the theater. Then they project the movie of your choice.. Super fun.. This is my third event, and I will keep using FunFLicks, though I hope they improve their pre-event communications in the future.

We had a paid event for a movie at the pool. The tech showed up 20 minutes late and was not…read moreprepared at all! First, he did not have enough stakes to safely secure the screen down. He only did the front of the screen. Had the wind changed direction, the entire screen would have fallen on all of our guests. After I provided enough stakes the make it safe, he realized he did not have the right sound cords. We had NO SOUND for our outdoor movie. The techs only solution was to drive back to warehouse 45 minutes away and get the correct cord. It would have taken him nearly two hours to get the correct cord, which would have made my family friendly movie starting at midnight. Luckily, our venue holds many events and we were able to provide the tech with the appropriate sound cords. Once we were finally able to start the movie (45 minutes past the scheduled time) he realized he did not have any batteries in his remote to start the movie. Once again, I was scrambling to provide something the company should have already had. The next day I called the company to tell them of all the issues we had with our event and see if I could be compensated anything given the fact that I provided half of the equipment in order to show the movie. Management did not seem to care that I had provide so many things for the movie. They offered to take $100 off my next rental but there was not going to be a next rental. I was told they would speak with their supervisor and call me back the following day. Two full weeks later, I had to follow up to see where the situation stood. I had to remind the manager of the entire situation as she could not recall any of the facts and still gave me the same information the as she did the first time. Apparently I was just supposed to send 200+ guests home and reschedule the event for another time. This was a paid event, I would have had to refund multiple people and I would have lost money. Had I not covered the tech with all of the equipment, the movie would not have played. I understand things come up and mistakes happen but management did not do anything to make the situation right. They were perfectly fine with losing a customer. Needless to say, I would never recommend Fun Flicks due to their techs being unprepared and management not making the situation right and taking nearly 3 weeks to return a call.

What a fun venue in the basement of Oskar Blues in Downtown Denver!…read more We had been wanting to check out the venue and just happened upon half price tickets for a show on a Friday night. We didn't know the bands, but that has never stopped us before. Black Buzzard is conveniently located on major bus routes into downtown, so we took the bus from the Berkeley neighborhood and walked less than a block to the venue. We were a bit early for doors, so we grabbed a couple of stools at Oskar Blues for a beer before the show. Pro Tip: Although the beverage selection is the same at Oskar Blues & Black Buzzard, you must open separate tabs at each. Black Buzzard has a mix of high top tables and standing space for live music. We had a rather charmed experience. The show was extremely undersold. So, there was plenty of space. And, the band members were super friendly and hung out with us before the show. The bands were fantastic and we had a wonderful time jamming out. Unfortunately, the stage is not very high, so sightlines at a sold out show will not be ideal for short folks like me. In the future, I may stick to their comedy shows here, which I assume are seated.

Hilarious and cute video clips curated to create an entertaining film. Nice job. And The Sie? Also, my first time. Great place to see independent films and with all the accoutrements that you'd expect: full bar (YAY), movie snacks, beer and wine - decently priced considering it's movie priced. The bar boasts a nice lounge area with lots of seating options. Staff were great - friendly and welcoming. No herd mentality here - that I often see at big box theatres. This was nice. Definitely will be back to enjoy future films - as well as keep an eye out for next year's CatVideoFest. Loved the opportunity to experience both The Sie as well as 90 minutes of adorable cat cuteness.

The Cat video fest showing we went to was packed, so I'm glad we arrived early! The videos were hilarious and well compiled, with a good mixture of sweet narratives and hilarious shorts. This is a fun 90 minutes for any cat lover!
