At the risk of sounding like a total freak, SFist admits that we'll see all sorts of crap if it's playing at the lovely Coronet theater. Like so many other theaters in the Richmond, the Coronet's future is in jeopardy as it is expected to be razed, and a housing facility for the elderly is slated to be built there some time in the near future (no one seems sure when, so we're not specifying, either).

For us, seeing a movie at the Coronet is like visiting a dying relative. You're never quite sure if you'll see them again, so your time with them is always precious and bittersweet. We made our way over to the Coronet on Saturday night for the 7 PM show of Collateral (how could we not go see this movie, for, as SFist's frequent companion says "How often do you get to see Tom Cruise with what is probably his natural hair color?") and had just settled into our seats when a Coronet employee approached the front of the theater and gestured for our attention.
