We were going to wait until the crowds died down, but we had time today. We thought it was going to be packed because it was the release date, but it was in fact empty. The employee said we picked the sweet spot time to come, which was Friday mornings/early afternoon, when there's no one! So just an FYI there. All staff were super friendly and establishment was very clean! We got some popcorn, nachos and some drinks and we're set the entire movie!

I thought those days of going to those type of theaters were over when I moved to the PNW, but God is good because there's the Olympic Club Theater. I went in during the day with my Mom to watch Toy Story (it's the 30th Anniversary of the film) and because it's mid-day, the room was empty, but this place is super cool. Love all the unique antique couches and tables where you can watch your movie and a server brings it to you. We ahd the run of the house and the food was pretty good. I got a burger, fries, and hard cider and it was okay, but the experience made my heart happy. There is also a restroom at the back of the theater with old fashioned fixtures and it was cool. It's a men's room, but it's also open to anyone who wants to use it. Also great is how they have all the condiments out in the back so help yourself, along with a water dispenser, AND a sink to wash your hands. So good! Can't wait to come back and watch another show here.

And if you've actually visited any of their locations, you "know"...you just know. McMenamins is an experience. The locations are quirky, typically historic and a treat to explore...they provide so much eye candy that you probably won't get a chance to absorb all the details in a single visit. And the tots! Yes, the Cajun tots with ranch is worth the visit alone. But get a craft beverage (or two, or three) while there. I tried three hard ciders and they were each unique & delicious. I rounded out my meal with a cheeseburger and I have to say, it was one of the best burgers I've had recently. If you go to a show (I watched Dune: Part Two) there's enough ambient light to eat without fumbling about. Yes, it does affect the screen image quality a bit, so factor that in...it's a compromise that's worth being able to enjoy your dinner and drinks during the show. Insider tip: go during happy hour and this fun, funky and delicious experience will be about what you pay for ticket, drink and popcorn at the generic cinamaplexamacmallits. Only McMenamins is leaps and bounds cooler my friends. Oh yeah, there's a McMenamins passport program which I did not know about until after I had left. You have to buy into it, but the ultimate reward sounds pretty darn amazing! Look it up on their website for the deets!

There was a part with a black actor, dressed all in black and I only saw him because I could barely make out the whites of his eyes. At this point I'm done and left to ask for a refund. The manager tried to convince me this is how the movie is supposed to look. Even took me into another theatre to see it on a different screen. It also looked terrible. It was kinda funny, a manager of a movie theater should know this isn't acceptable. I feel like they got some knock off cheap versions of the film and are just trying to pass it off. It honestly was on par with cam quality. Got a refund and could hear the manager talking crap about me to other employees as I walked away. Classy. Went to a regal in Vancouver that same day to actually watch the movie, it was like an entirely different film! It was wild watching scenes I had already seen and realizing how different it was. There's a part with a spider in a web in the upper corner of a door frame that I hadn't been able to see at all at Kelso Regal because it was all shadow but it was clear as day on this screen. Not likely to return after this experience and being treated this way. I'll just go to Vancouver.

Nice Regal theater in Olympia! I was supposed to work an event today in Shelton which didn't quite…read morego according to plan but since I made an hour drive this way from Puyallup, I decided to do something fun in Olympia before going home and ended up here. Toy Story 5 is out and the kid in me LOVES Toy Story.. they are my favorite Disney movies that are animated and aren't Princess-related so I had to see Toy Story 5 and I decided to see it in a format I haven't watched a movie in before (Screen X). I was excited that they have Screen X as I've come close to seeing a movie in Screen X before but ended up not getting around to it. I lived in Idaho for a couple years and the Regal in Boise has different formats for movies like IMAX, Screen X and 4DX. I absolutely LOVE 4DX movies so that was my go to theater for that but I had it in the back of my mind to do Screen X sometime and recently found out that was something offered at this theater. It was nice to see what it was all about but honestly didn't feel it was anything that special. The Screen is basically extended with projections on the sides of the auditorium during key parts of the movie but the images on the sides are darker, not nearly as bright as the screen in front of you and they are blurry looking. It was honestly kind of distracting. I originally wanted to do 3D with Screen X but then decided because I've never seen a movie in Screen X to just do regular Screen X to see if I actually like the format first and I'm glad I went that route because maybe the 3D would have enhanced the side screens a bit more but I could see it also possibly being overwhelming and disorienting if I did it with the 3D. I know alot of people say they think that 4DX is distracting and overwhelming to the senses with the moving seats but honestly I would much rather have watched this in 4DX.. Sadly they don't have 4DX at this theater though and the only theater in Washington that does is the Regal in downtown Seattle. It would be nice if they added 4DX as an option here as I'd rather make the long drive here than fight all the traffic in Seattle to get there but I know it's extremely expensive for them to convert even one auditorium to the 4DX seats so that likely won't be happening any time soon if ever. Overall though, I LOVED the movie and the theater was very nice! I didn't get any concessions today as I felt it would be more worth it to hit up the Wendy's drive thru after for the minion meal, but I do enjoy Regal's Sips by Pepsi- give them a try if you haven't! They cost a bit less than a regular soda or even the small icee and they have unique flavors like a Cotton Candy lemonade topped with real cotton candy and cotton candy boba!! Enjoy ;)

Too many ads! Jesus! More than cable! Here waiting to watch The Odyssey and it is 10:42. That's 12…read moreminutes of nonstop ads and no movie so far. I am about to start booing. Probably not come here again. Edit to add: It is now 11:05 am and movie just began. That's 17 minutes of ads, 18 minutes of previews. If you want to spend your time wisely, you can use some of that time for something else. Cost for two tickets, two drinks and popcorn: $77. Now the end of the movie. No way that's IMAX. That's a standard movie on a big bent screen with extremely loud (too loud) sound. If they need certification to say they are IMAX it should be pulled. IMAX means Immersive Audio Experience. Nothing immersive here. Go to IMAX in Tacoma!

I couldn't figure out why my friend was raving about it so hard but after we went I totally get it! The pricing on everything is insanely cheap in comparison to any other theater I've been to. I think the biggest wow to me is ALL popcorn and fountain drinks are BOTTOMLESSS! What?! You get to serve yourself and there is butter machines too (idc how unhealthy it is, let me drown in it). Even the kids packs are bottomless for soda and popcorn and they have several cool drink machines. The kids packs are like $11 and come with bottomless popcorn, fountain drinks, and a choice of a candy. Such a steal. Moving into the theater was also such a welcome surprise. The theaters aren't overly huge, and they have the spacious, reclining seats. Me and my daughter were ecstatic about this so we could get cozy. The experience here was top tier and my only gripe is that it isn't closer. We'd be here for date night all the time if it was - they even have a bar/lounge in the lobby for adults only. So cool!

In 1987, the theatre was successfully listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The interior of the theatre itself is a glorious example of an "atmospheric" theatre. Instead of the bland curtain covered walls of modern theatres, here, you are transported through architectural elements and ornamentation to a Spanish courtyard under an evening sky. Periodically, the theatre presents classic movies. I was able to attend a showing of The Goonies, and while I already have this in my personal movie collection, getting the chance to see it once again on the big screen for the first time since 1985 was too tempting to pass up..."Goonies Never Say Die!" There are fewer than 50 Atmospheric Theatres left in the entire world. If you ever get a chance to attend a movie or live performance at this one, do yourself a favor and go to the show!

The theater sells limited snacks and because it's so small, it's a very intimate setting. Before the show started, they mentioned that the venue is available for anyone who wants to do a small show, play, concert, or stand up so this place seems like a valuable asset for the arts community of Olympia.
