Old Fashioned Marquee



I never actually see them changing one, so this was a welcome sight. So much better than digital marquees where someone's just typing on a computer.

Typing on a computer is so mundane. I'm totally going to start handwriting The Film Experience! Why should posts take a few hours to write when they could take whole days?

I have to do that some weeks, except ours is about 20 feet up. It sucks when it rains.

I used to work at the IFC Center and was glad I never had to do that. I am short with weak arms! Super fun place to work and they play awesome movies.

Some of the theatres here in Toronto have old fashion marquees. More theatres use the black letters too, but they show the times which I guess kill the old-fashioned look out of it.
