    There are a couple of smaller local theaters where I live that let you rent out one of their cinema halls for the evening and let you and your buddies watch whatever you want. You can also bring consoles to game on. It’s like 60 Euros per hour, definitely affordable for a small group.

      All the theaters in my area do that but it’s probably way more since it’s a Metropolitan area and they can make a ton just airing regular showings. I would love to host something at one for my buds though, like worlds for the game we play.

      Man, every so often when I’m at work, I’ll still daydream about renting out my local theatre, having them use a black question mark rather than the private rental image on their schedule website with a note that it’s a private rental with public access, then playing the Church of the Subgenius’ recruitment video (link for the interested: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o0x9ymMQUg8). Or, depending on my mood, one of those desert series stoner rock concert videos.

      Only thing stopping me is money, and the fact that ARISE is on DVD rather than Blu-ray - I don’t want to do Stang and co dirty like that, it would look like shit.
