EXCLUSIVE: Alamo Drafthouse is renaming its San Francisco theater to honor Christopher Nolan. The venue will be officially called the Christopher Nolan Cinema.
"To be honored in this way, and with this particular theater, is a thrill beyond words," Nolan says. "I am grateful to Alamo Drafthouse Cinema for their passion and commitment to creating an ideal cinematic experience that celebrates and elevates this art form that we all love.”

This guy bought a $300 inflatable movie screen on Amazon as a Christmas gift for his family and turned it into a $100,000 a year business at 80% profit margins.
He just booked a $10,000 week.
His startup cost was literally that Amazon gift.
This is backyard movie theater rentals. But here's where it gets really freaking cool.
Derek realized movies can't start until 9:30 PM in Texas summers because it doesn't get dark until then. That doesn't work for seven year olds.
So he built the world's first indoor air conditioned inflatable movie theater.
Full carpeting. LED lights. Four window AC units he bought off Facebook Marketplace for $150 each. He charges $1700 for it.
His outdoor packages start at $375 and scale up from there to $1500.
Then he added LED dance floors because kids kept dancing after the movies ended.
Those rent for $3,000 and he'll have it paid off in eight rentals.
In this episode Derek:
- Breaks down how he went from unprepared at his first HOA event to a $10K booking week
- Shares how he sources equipment from Alibaba and Facebook Marketplace
- Tells me why his best clients are people sitting on a few acres who don't blink at price
- Gives me the exact package structure he uses, from $375 starter to $1,700 indoor
This one is awesome. Check it out.

and i’ll have that format available going forward barely 10min from my house
Conrad Hall's system was to first light for black and white, and then light for color. The single clearest approach for making images that resolve. Study everything he did.
Jesus I hate falling for engagement bait.

We had no idea that Fangoria was spying on Satan's Workshop last week at the AFS Cinema in Austin. Readers of Fangoria, don't tell anybody else!
