: Just to remind any interested parties: a newly-struck print of RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK will be shown this Monday night, August 21st, at 8 PM at the Fabulous Fox Theatre, on Peachtree Street in Atlanta. The box office opens at 6.45 (remember, this is an old-style theatre, very turn-of-the-century), and tickets are $4.50. You CAN buy tickest in advance, but you have to buy them in 'books' of 13, as this showing is part of their summer film festival. Your ticket won't say RAIDERS on it, you'll just have a pass to ANY of the Fox's summer movies.

: Hope to see some fellow Indyfan forum folks lurking about!

I'm gonna try to make it. You are right about the atmosphere being perfect for "Raiders" as it resembles some kind of Moorish temple. The Fox was built in the late 20's by the Shriners in 29, I believe, the depression hit and they sold the theater to Fox. It's a beautiful old movie palace for sure. I'll be the guy in the brown fedora.
Cheers!
