ᴡ WollamMay 27, 2016For $320, see all the movies you want plus free popcorn over a whole year. If you love movies, that's the deal of the century.
Best theater in Columbus! Get a duet membership! Also, go to see movies 🎥 that are independent mainstream art house foreign, it doesn't matter!
An independent theater. It's expensive - $10.50 - and has theaters with as few as 20 seats. An asset to the town where you can see docs and music films that you'd otherwise not see in Columbus.Upvoted 2 weeks ago- If you park in the adjacent garage, you can pay for parking when you buy your movie ticket.
This is my favorite Theater in Columbus, and there are several good theaters. Wonderful staff and a great snack bars, check this place out
Such a fun and unique theatre!! I love all of the programs and special viewings put on here.- Wednesday QuansahJuly 16, 2018The bar here made me a hard ginger beer float that was one of the best things I've ever consumed!
Really enjoyed this theater. Very clean, comfortable seats and a quality movie going experience.- Ken BaldwinMarch 29, 2017Lots of independent films play here. They sometimes have Miyazaki movie nights and play interesting cult classics.
Get in your seat 20 minutes before your showtime to see Columbusland! Funny pre-show talking local and movies, unlike anything in the country... and I'm in it!
CarlJune 17, 2013I once watched vintage porn here on the big screen, on my birthday. If you have a chance to watch vintage porn with 50 other people in a theater, do it
Thanks again gateway for another half-assed projection watching a Midnight showing of The Visitor in screen 7 while the audio from another screen or maybe the shitty music in the lobby bleeds in.- ᴡ WollamJune 24, 2016Very cool deal - pay something like $300 and see all the movies you want for free for the next year!
Andrew MilnerAugust 9, 2016Theatres and screens are VERY small and fill up quickly. If you get dizzy sitting in the front row, get here early or go elsewhere.- Andrew MilnerNovember 2, 2015Better prices than Lennox. Lots to do nearby. Always a good choice for a movie.
- ᴡ WollamJuly 1, 2016Their tastes aren't the same as mine, but you can't beat the membership prices if you are an avid moviegoer.
- Fab event space upstairs. Betcha didn't know the epicocity that happens there.
- The trivia, special movies and nightmare on high st are the best.
Second Saturday of the month is Midnight Monster Movies with Dr. Bob, a free midnight movie series!
Stacy WallachMay 6, 2012I like throwing popcorn at idiots on their smart phones during the freaking movie. Stop it for crying out loud!
Good for indie movies. Old school screenings. Long line on weekends. Ugly Tuna rabble beware.
Second Wednesday of every month is the MidOhio Filmmakers Association mixer and every 4th Monday is Indieclub!
Try the Luna Kombucha with some vodka you've sneaked in your bag.
Jay BrooksOctober 8, 2010Great theater, and great location. Glad they have a parking garage attached, as it is in OSU campus.- Glenn BarkerDecember 10, 2011Lots of great food options nearby, including Panera and Eddie George's Grill 27.
- Don't bother seeing 3D movies here those cheap asses keep the light bulbs below the required brightness saving them $ but causing a less then stellar presentation that's not worth your $.
- The new Gateway show that plays before the trailers is a bunch of midlife tastless douchebags talking shit for 5 mins its horrible.
These Columbusland bits before the trailers are pretty annoying and awful.- Kristina BeeAugust 19, 2010there are many Brendas (scary movie) that come here. they don't like to be shushed. you've been warned.
