The whole place is just a series of couches, some with blankets on them. Peter and I have a favorite spot in the middle. It's a loveseat with a table in front of it. So perfect. I like their vegan popcorn that kinda tastes ranch flavored and natural sodas. I'm a member! And I'll keep coming. PS... BYO!! We usually bring some ciders, beers or wine. It's awesome.

My last visit was to hear a mixed media performance of photos taken from the space station accompanied by a wonderful jazzy group. The acoustics are fantastic, and if you are lucky enough to attend a perfomance where the harbor is visible behind the stage (sometimes the curtains are drawn) you are in for a major treat. Parking can be tricky but if you don't mind a little walk on-street parking can be had. It's a bit of a hike from Boston but I would return in a heartbeat,

So there's no reason at all for the young unsupervised teens & tweens in the back of The Hail Mary movie last week to stop forcing around creating rackets serving all the people in the movie theater.

Why not horse around in the back of the theater? There's no one who cares. If you want a nice movie experience go somewhere else

I've been to this IMAX theater many times -- love it -- and may have even written a review. This…read moreis unusual in that I'm reviewing an experience where I *didn't* get to see the movie. I arrived an hour before Dune to be sure to get in line and get a seat. As I was entering, the fire alarm went off and people were ushered out and away from the building. An hour later we were let back in even while the strobe lights were still going off. We were given "updates" (no new info really) periodically and even mildly entertained by a genial staff member who offered some jelly bean trivia. An hour in we were told the movie was being cancelled and we would get free tickets to return. I want to commend the audience for staying chill throughout and as far as I could see not getting upset or outwardly annoyed. Disappointed yes, antagonistic, no. But most of all I want to commend the staff for the way they handled the matter. To a person they were pleasant, calm, apologetic and courteous. They seem to be a well coordinated and cohesive group, which is not something one often sees in movie theaters. Three cheers to the Jordan's Reading IMAX crew! -----Update: I returned later that day and was able to see Dune, which was awesome. There is nothing like this theater, with it's floor to ceiling screen, surroundsound and "buttkickers" (vibrations in your seat when appropriate). There were about 7 tickets of 500 left when I got mine so I was advised to get there an hour early, which I did. There were already about 75 people in line. We were let in about 20 minutes before the show was scheduled to start and I had no trouble getting my preferred seat near the top and center, but I would NOT have wanted to be near the end of the line. I think sitting at the end of a row would take some getting used to but be manageable, but I can't imagine anywhere in the first 5 rows would be enjoyable. Takeaway: get there early people!!

So it was exciting to have a recent and currently rare chance to return to the venue for the first time in at least 10 years, if not more. I do follow their social media programming in the interim and am pleased that the cinema has managed to soldier on through the more challenging recent years. The triplex layout was exactly the same as I remember, though it was a surprise that the bathrooms did not seem to have been updated. The more personal, less chain-like touch is evident throughout the space with handwritten film titles and a general welcome to linger vibe. The film I saw featured in the "screening room" which I had not visited before. Seating was OK with the look up at a slightly sharper angle than I would have liked. Sound and picture quality was excellent. The trailers before the film were individually cultivated (a welcome additional more "personal" touch) and highlighted upcoming one-off programming the cinema will be offering. Keep going strong, Cinema Salem!

We've been coming to the Topsfield Drive-in for the past couple of weeks now, and it's been a great option for going out. There are concession stands set up, masks are required when you are outside your vehicle. It's been nice to go out for a movie. This week was Beetlejuice. For some reason I'm watching it now, and it's a really weird plot line for a movie, but I remember not questioning it as a kid. I remember the gags and the running jokes with Delia's sculptures, Barbara having a literal zipper on her mouth. Holy crap that is young Alec Baldwin and I didn't recognize him. Beetlejuice needs to marry Lydia, an adolescent for whatever reason? It just struck me last night that this movie probably wouldn't be made in today's day and age. I still love it though, however I'm starting to notice that I question more things as I get older. So, last week was actually Jumanji: The Next Level. So it's nice because there is a nice spread of movies to watch. The concession stand is fairgrounds prices, which is okay but who can be mad over $7 deep fried oreos, they're delicious and where else you gonna get this? They do offer radios for rent at $5 a pop, or to jump your car for $5 if your car dies while listening to the radio for the movie. We've run off the battery for a movie and have been fine. I would caution not to rely on your battery unless it was replaced recently, and just buy a cheap radio to watch the film.
