My family and I had been looking forward to seeing The Odyssey for weeks. Tickets were sold out…read moreeverywhere, so we were incredibly excited when we finally got them. Unfortunately, the experience was one of the worst I've ever had at a theater. The seating is unbelievably cramped. If you're over 5 feet tall, prepare to be uncomfortable for the entire movie. The seats are small, hard, stiff, and offer virtually no legroom. Sitting through a three-hour film felt unbearable. What concerned me even more was how the auditorium is laid out. Once everyone is seated, you're essentially trapped. There are no aisles running through the seating sections, making it extremely difficult for people to get in or out without disrupting entire rows. It genuinely made me wonder what would happen in the event of an emergency evacuation. The concessions didn't make up for it either. The popcorn was stale, and the overall concession experience was disappointing. To make matters worse, seating is first come, first served, so if you want decent seats, you'll need to arrive at least an hour early despite already having purchased tickets. This theater completely overshadowed what should have been an incredible film experience. I would not return, and I would strongly recommend seeing a long movie somewhere with comfortable seating and a better auditorium layout.

They even let kids stay after the game to run the bases afterwards. They definitely have fans at the heart of everything they do. The stadium itself is beautiful with sweeping views of downtown Seattle from multiple areas and Elliott Bay from the top deck. There are tons of retail spaces and a multiple of food options. Some are familiar brands - Salt and straw, Moto pizza and Ivars as examples - and others are more generic. Many of the seats are under cover in case of inclement weather but others are not (the outfield looked almost entirely exposed). The scoreboards are large and easy to read. The music between plays and innings was lively! And the fans were happy and loyal. People were considerate of one another and everyone seemed to be having a good time. I can't wait to go back for another game! Highly recommended for an amazing urban sports experience in a wonderful city. Go Mariners!

10/10!!!! SO EXCITED I SAW GREY WHALES & ORCAS!!! (&ETC)…read more Based on the reviews we were a little scared to try this company BUT it turned out so amazing! I think people only leave bad reviews when they don't get what they exactly want! Anyway- the workers were so welcoming! The process was very easy from buying the tickets to the end! We got there just in time (not the 45 min ahead like it said) and it was perfect! (Maybe before we were the first boat of the day?) Once in the charter it didn't take long for us to leave. While they are taking us out towards where the whales are... They told us a bunch of stories a bunch of scientific facts and a bunch of tips and tricks! We also saw a bunch of sea life just heading out to the whale areas! (Seals, starfish, birds, fish, jellyfish , etc) The ride was smooth and beautiful- DEFINITELY COLD (even if it's 90F in Seattle)! But the views are beautiful- both of the sea and Seattle!! It didn't take very long to get to the areas but once we did everyone had the same goal - SPOT THE WHALES!!! It didn't take us too long because we got lucky! There was a lot of activity that day! We ended up seeing 6 different orcas and 1 grey whale!! Super fun start to our day and now I can say I saw whales(:

The price for the whale watch tour is $144. You depart from pier 69 in Seattle. You pretty much are…read morepaying for the boat ride and not the whales. It's a 4 hour tour but most of that time is spent getting to and from the destination where the whales are, which is damn near Canada. When you get to where the whales are the boat slows down and you can only see them from a distance. There's only like 1 or 2 whales and they only pop up for a quick second to breathe and when they go back in the water they don't pop up for another 15mins. The boat stays there for maybe 3 rounds of this. Then it's back to your seats and back to the pier. Dress warm and eat before you go or pack snacks! The food offered in the boat is overpriced! Definitely a tourist trap!

One of the best settings for a sporting event in the nation…read more The proximity to the city definitely can be a downside if you're thinking about traffic, but I've had even worst traffic experiences at stadiums that were out in the boonies too. So that's probably hard to do for any stadiums anywhere. What's remarkable is the food and the liveliness it has during event days. Inside the stadium, of course, but even the outside and heck, the entire mile of a walk to the stadium itself is just energized with people hanging out and grabbing food. It cannot be understated how well the environment is out here. Of course, the stadium itself is a state of the art facility and probably one of the loudest acoustically. I think I heard it was specifically engineered for that? Don't quote me on that but it really does get loud out there, and I love it. Biased as I am, having lived here my entire life, this place is arguably the best setting in the world in my heart.

For a big stadium pop/folk show like Ed Sheeran's LOOP Tour, built on looping, live layering, and…read morehuge sing-alongs, Lumen Field delivered the goods. Scale, energy, and that classic Pacific Northwest night under the arches. When the crowd is locked in and the songs are big enough to fill the place, it really shines. That said, the acoustics aren't great for quieter or more nuanced moments (stadium echo is real here), and getting in and out can be a pain, especially by transit. The light-rail mess after this show didn't help. If you care more about atmosphere and hits than perfect sound, you'll leave happy. If you're sensitive to echo or prefer intimate acoustics, maybe stick to smaller venues. Sheeran keeps coming back for a reason though--this place works for his style of stadium intimacy, even if it's not a sonic paradise.

This was the absolute number one thing I wanted to see when I was in Seattle. Never been before and…read morewanted to make this a highlight. Especially since I visited on my birthday, little gift to myself was to travel. Quick run down of the specs of this place. Built for the 1962 World's Fair. Sits at 605 ft high making it at one time the tallest building west of the Mississippi. 138 ft wide, weighting 9,550 short tons. Built to withstand 200 mph winds and 9.0 magnitude earthquake. Start by buying your ticket ahead of time. You can pick a time to have your tour, but in all honesty, I think you can show up whenever. The guy manning the gate looked at my ticket, didn't flinch at the time slot, and told me to head inside and join the line. When you go in the line splits into two. One side you go directly to the elevators up, the other line takes you to the picture area where you can set yourself up for planned photo areas. There is information on the walls to take in as the line can be long and take a while to get through. This, by the way, is all after security. As you near the elevators, be sure to have that ticket handy again. This is where they will scan it and direct you to another line to head up to the top. The elevators are double decker elevators that take you 520 ft up in 41 seconds. Pretty fast ride that you are told by the operator and a short amount of time to ask them any questions. While up here, take all the time you ever want. Once at the top, there really is no set time to descend. You can stay up here all day if you wanted. There is even a place to grab a bite to eat and have a libation. Two levels up top, and honestly, take your time here as both levels have a lot to offer. The one that a lot of people gravitate to is the rotating level. You can literally stand in one spot and see the whole city from just about every possible angle. But, do move around. Be sure to even look down, if you don't have a fear of heights. This room gives you an optical illusion type of effect. Even if you are not on the moving portion of the floor, it still feels like you are moving. Then make your way up a level if you need to use the restroom. If not, continue up another level to the non-moving observation deck. You can do this floor two different ways. If heights and observation decks are not your thing, stay inside and take in the views. But if you are alright with the height, head outside and push through the crowds. Unlike the floor below, you will have to personally rotate the circle. Once done with your viewing of Seattle and surrounding areas, time to head back down. You can catch the elevator on either one of the floors up here. Best bet is to wait upstairs on the non-moving part, you won't have as long of a line up there, nor will you have people cutting line because they think they are more important than you. Quick 41 second ride and you are back on solid ground. Be sure to take in the gift shop area. Check out the Lego Space Needle, in fact check it out while you are in line. The details of this is amazing and in the original colors when this opened. Spy Batman on here if you can. Not bad. Review 4,500 in the books. Many more to come.

The movie was a cool touch also! The could benefit from having better food options as they had very very limited snacks and no meals.

Loved how MOPOP described the cultural movement built upon five foundational elements: MC'ing, DJ'ing, Breakdancing, Graffiti and Self: Identity, Community, Political Awareness and the use of Hip Hop to show one's expression. Viewing this took me back in time and brought back so many memories. Also liked the other parts of the museum: the two story guitar art piece, "If VI was IX", interactive Sound Labs for music as well as the indie video games. But what stood out was the Infinite Worlds of Science Fiction: Star Wars to Star Trek to Aliens and Back to the Future. Definitely a must see!

On the other hand, it felt like most of the material is either pictures & basic bios of famous people, or physical props. Is it really that stimulating to see a replica of a proton pack, a Dalek, or a Starfleet uniform behind enclosed glass? The section with the highest potential was the music lab, but the interactivity seemed pretty limited. On top of that, I caught a few factual errors, like misspelled names ("Paul Ruebens"), or bloopers in their historical video reels (both 1987 and 1990 contained clips of The Simpsons, which are both wrong -- it debuted in 1989 as a standalone show). Somewhere on the floor there's a poorly conceived gallery of video game controllers, which inexplicably features some generic third-party controllers that don't count, while controllers from many important game consoles are missing entirely. These are all sloppy errors for a museum to make. All in all, I'd say this place offers maybe $15 worth of fun, but not the $35 they currently charge.
