    Charming? yes. Uncomfortable? yes haha i understand though...although i sincerely say as much as i loved the theater in general, those upstairs screenings were the worst screenings of my life due to the reasons i mentioned so i was always so happy or at least relieved when a movie i wanted to see was playing downstairs. and oh my gosh that bar!!! haha...yeah it was interesting to say the least...

    Another article here about the theater...i wonder if they would want to make it be a 1 or 2 theater instead of the 3 it was....i seriously hated the upstairs theaters with the odd angles and small uncomfortable seats... so either open back up the upstairs to be a balcony as it was or turn those 2 tiny theaters into 1 theater that way there would be 2 theaters total. One of the most exciting things though is that i am sure (i hope anyway) that they will replace all seats with wider and more comfortable seats..like the ones they have here: just basic information here: https://www.houstoniamag.com/news-and-city-life/2022/02/star-cinema-grill-river-oaks-theater-houston 💯

    Mozambique is gone now...it closed a month or so after opening... also worth noting, The Potbelly Sandwich place on the south side of the skate rink still has not reopened and the Yong Kang next door now seems to be closed too!

    this weekend a buddy and i went to see Moonfall in the 4DX theater (it was fun btw)... but upon arrival half of the lobby was closed and covered up..i asked what was going on and the manager said they are doing a TOTAL renovation of the inside...EVERYTHING from the lobby to the concession stands to the theaters and the seats! He said it will take all year but when done he laughed and said say goodbye to the horrible hollywood star murals and hello to something that will look like the Death Star with neon haha! that sounds awesome to me! (HUGE Star Wars fan 🖤) and he added that the seats and the theaters will blow my mind....so yep i am excited! (I have been going to this and the other Regal cinema on Weslayan nonstop since july 2020 with my Regal Unlimited card and nope, no covid so far knock on wood!...and with less crowded theaters it has been awesome not dealing with the rare but bothersome disrespectful movie goers that sometimes go...) anyway...wow MarqE as a whole is really making a comeback in a big way in 2022 it seems!

    omg forgot that it was a Two Pesos! loved it then! The funny part is i don't ever remember what it was in the 80's but dang that was the BEST years of Montrose although the 90s were fun too!
