Alright, alright, listen up y’all! You wanna go see a movie, right? In Huntington, West Virginia? Well, lemme tell ya, it ain’t as hard as milkin’ a cow with one hand, but ya gotta know where to look.
First off, you got that big place, the Marquee Pullman Square 16. Sounds fancy, huh? Pullman Square… like them fancy train cars. Anyways, they got a whole mess of movies playin’ there. Sixteen screens they say! That’s a lot of movies, more than the chickens I got out back, I tell ya! You can see all sorts of stuff, them new ones, the ones with all the explosions and whatnot, and probably some for the kids too, ya know, the cartoon ones. They even got them tickets online now, ain’t that somethin’? You don’t even gotta go down there and stand in line no more. Just clickity-clack on that computer thingamajig, and boom, you got your ticket.
Now, how do ya find out what’s playin’ and when? That’s the real question, ain’t it? Well, there’s this thing called the “showtimes”. Sounds important, right? It is! It tells ya what movie is playin’ and at what time. Like, “Gone with the Wind” at 2 pm, or “Space Wars Part 97” at 7 pm, ya see? You can find these showtimes on the internet, they say. Just type in somethin’ like “movie theater showtimes in Huntington West Virginia” or “movies in Huntington” and it’ll pop right up. Or, if you’re like me and don’t trust that newfangled technology, you can just go down there and look at the sign. They always got a big sign with all the times on it.
But hold your horses, there’s more! There’s other places too, not just that Pullman Square one. They got other movie theaters scattered around town, like little hidden treasures, ya know? The internet, that thing again, can help you find ’em. Just search for “movie theaters near me” or “showtimes near 25707” if you know the zip code. That’s what my grandson told me anyways, bless his heart. He knows all this computer stuff.
- Finding the right movie: Now, pickin’ a movie is like pickin’ a watermelon. Sometimes you get a good one, sweet and juicy, and sometimes you get a dud. You can read them reviews, if you want. But them reviewers, they’re a picky bunch, I tell ya. Best bet is to ask your neighbor, or just go see whatever tickles your fancy.
- Ticket prices: Them tickets, they ain’t cheap no more. Back in my day, you could see a movie for a nickel and a handful of popcorn! Now, they charge ya an arm and a leg. But, hey, it’s still cheaper than a trip to the moon, right? And sometimes, they got special deals, like early bird specials or matinee prices. So, keep an eye out for them. They say online has ticket prices, but I just go and ask, much easier.
- Fancy stuff: And get this, some of these theaters now, they got all sorts of fancy stuff. Like them LASER at AMC thingies. Makes the picture real bright and purdy. And they sellin’ props from the movies now too! Can you believe it? Like you can buy the hat that John Wayne wore, or somethin’. It’s a whole new world, I tell ya. But I like just watchin’ the movie, myself. All that other stuff is just fluff.
So there ya have it. That’s the lowdown on seein’ a movie in Huntington, West Virginia. It ain’t rocket science, but it’s good to know the ropes, ya know? Now go on, get yourself a ticket, some popcorn, and enjoy the show. And don’t forget to tell ’em ol’ Bessie sent ya. Just kidding, don’t do that, they’ll look at you funny. But seriously, have fun at the movies!
One more thing, If you want the address to that big place, it’s somethin’ like 26 Pullman Square, Huntington, West Virginia 25701. And the phone number is 304-525-7469. Not that I use it, phones these days are just for showin off, I say.
Now git along, and go see a movie. You’ve heard enough from me.
