Copper Creek 9 - New seating

Though it's slightly out of the way for us, when we're up for a movie (especially with kids) we…read morehead to Copper Creek. The reason why? The trailers and ads don't take up 45 minutes. Recently when we went to an AMC theater there were so many trailers and then ads for things like Coke and then more trailers it was 45 minutes AFTER the movie time before the movie started. At Copper Creek we had three trailers and no ads! After the trailer was a quick blurb showing off the surround sound of the theater and then the movie started! It was almost bliss! Try keeping a kid's attention through 45 minutes of ads and THEN a 90 minute movie! Copper Creek also has nice, updated seating. Not only is this great for adults who like that semi-reclined feel and higher back chairs but this kind of chair doesn't suck in the kids. With smaller kids in some theaters, if they sit back the chair folds in on them. You either have to keep them at the front of the chair or hold your leg partially over the corner to anchor it. Not the case at Copper Creek. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. The lobby seems cleaner than some cinemas. The snacks are about the same as everywhere but they do have free refills you may not find at Cinemark. They do still accept Dealflicks, which though the price is the same on some matinees it includes a popcorn, ensuring significant savings. And if you or your child can't get through a movie experience without popcorn, this is a nice deal. Be aware Dealflicks may not have seats for movie matinees during the first week if it's planned to be a big, popular release. All the same, check it out. All of the above give us reason to go slightly out of our way to Copper Creek when we plan a family movie night.

This is a cute little theatre. I love Mr. Movie talking with us at the beginning he added a ton of…read morepersonality to the theatre.

Forgot my ticket at home. Long line, and I am mortified. Adam and his new employee could not have…read morebeen more kind or efficient in getting this situation resolved. Theatre was clean, food was great, food service outstanding, theatre was quiet and perfectly lighted. Yes, you have to use your phone to order, but the background on your phone is dark, it is not too hard to keep from bothering other patrons. It helps if you do a tiny bit of homework and order B4 the show starts. Overall, yes, the prices have gone up, but so has everything else. At least the service is quick and quiet, the food is delicious and the customer service at the front desk (Thanks again, Adam) reminds me of the pre-covid days.

I hate to give bad review to a place that has been pretty much a home away from home for me since…read morethey first opened, but these recent developments are just not it. The Alamo Drafthouse used to be the place where you could trust that people wouldn't spend the entire movie talking or being on their phones, because it was a core tenet of the place that you would get kicked out for talking or texting etc. All you had to do was raise a card, "and a manager will take care of it." In my experience, this policy really hasn't been enforced much over the last few years, but as of this month, they have confirmed that they no longer care at all. As of now, you have to use your phone to order food or report talking/phone use. The ordering cards are no longer an option, there are no menus at each seat, only a QR code,and all throughout the movie, if you need anything, you're going to have to get your phone out. And once you do, good luck even getting the site to actually load. They have a really hilarious new announcement at the beginning of every movie about how they understand the irony of asking people not to use their phones (except to order), "just don't be a jerk about it." This new mobile-only experience is completely hostile to their customers, and has removed the human element that was a big part of what originally made the Alamo Drafthouse special. B&B theaters offers auditoriums with playgrounds in them, so kids can run around play during the movie. Sadly, a sold out screening at one of those is likely a less distracting movie-going experience than our last several visits to the drafthouse since the changes were put in place.
