The Joyo was the first place I ever seen a movie on the big screen. Movies that I remember seeing on the big screen at the Joyo were Bambi, Milo & Otis, 101 Dalmatians, Beauty and the Beast, Home Alone 2, The Flintstones, The Lion King, Free Willy 2, Batman Forever, Flipper, X-Men, Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, A Christmas Story, and It's A Wonderful Life.
Sadly, as much as I have seen Rocky Horror Picture Show, I have never gotten around on seeing it at the Joyo for the Saturday midnight showings they have once in a while. Another movie I never got around to seeing at the Joyo was MGM's classic; The Wizard of Oz, when they would show it. Well, someday when they are showing them two, I'll get around to them someday, somehow.

Knowing that they have mentioned that people can have parties arranged, I'd like to see what that is like. I'll just ask the owners and see what that's all about.
As much as they've been renovating piece by piece each year, they've come a long way, and all in good time they'll have the renovations completed. read more
