Watching "Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma" at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social tonight was an indescribable experience, and walking out to such a beautiful view made it all the better

We had two summer camp-themed movies tonight, so we showed out as camp counselors! @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social

Interesting selection of Looney Tunes shorts @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social today with a bunch of deep cuts I’d never seen at all. How many living souls can identify the character Bobo the Elephant by name?

Today the @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social was showing old Loony Tunes for free in one of the theaters, I haven’t heard the 14yo laugh out loud like that in a long time.

If you like meet cutes, this has one for the ages!

Happy 100TH BIRTHDAY to the king Mel Brooks, who wore a fake extra finger to his handprint ceremony🥳🎂🥳

This film lingers. It lingers on rust and rope, hands and hulls, faces and rippling water. It lingers long enough for you to notice, what’s the same, what’s different, and what doesn’t make sense. It lingers emotionally, the dread, the confusion, the frustration. It will linger with me a long time.

See yall at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social tomorrow for Hitch and Rope

Reason 1261946 I love the @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social

THEATER 3 is here and it's making headlines!
