The Who's original "Tommy: The Movie" print from 1975 has been restored in all it's quintophonic sound glory. Our local movie guy, Cranky Hanke, has secured it for a special showing on the south side of Asheville Wed., Sept 1 at 7:30. .. the only showing so far other than sold out screenings in NY & LA.

Wanna go? Carabus?

Read Cranky Hanke's STRONG review of this version... http://www.mountainx.com/movies/screening_room/2010/cranky_hankes_screening_room_itommy_i_the_movie_--_an_appreciation

Order your tickets: MovieTickets.com (It's listed as Asheville / The Carolina Theater.)

I love The Who but I have never seen Tommy.

I have to know Judy. What was the other one? I am pretty sure I liked Tommy but the memories are a bit fuzzy.

Say hello to the Acid Queen for me!

Worst movie I ever sat all the way through was Xanadu, or somthing like that.

Obviously you've never seen "Napoleon Dynamite" or "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" then. OMG what they're putting on film these days. Peace!

My two worst movies would have to be Ishtar & Waterworld.
There are probably others but these two leap to mind.

Don & The Terrordales
OSI The Bay Camper (1974)

Oh no. You didn't just put down Napoleon Dynamite! What are you thinking? That is one of my all time favorites. Maybe you have to teach middle school to appreciate the humor. Since we are going in that direction. "Lords of Flatbush" with Sly Stallone and Henry Winkler. Only movie I ever got up and walked out before the end. Oh, and I took Cheri to see Charlie St. Cloud. That pretty well sucked.

Napoleon Dynamite is the reason that, every night while saying my prayers, I ask GOD for that two hours of my life back

I'm with Boyd on this one, Napoleon Dynamite was freaking hilarious you jerks! lol lol. I actually watched it with a bunch of middle and early high school kids at a church lock-in and they helped put it in perspective.

I with you Boyd, maybe I just have a weird sense of humor but I love it and when I feel a little down it picks me right up.

Peace,
