Most of the time, I am the first to admit the superiority of New York 
City in all matters cultural.  However, I have to advocate seeing the 
HP movie in Washington, DC.  Here in DC we have the Uptown Theatre, 
which is the only remaining Cinerama theatre in the U.S.  (It has a 
curved screen.)  Even crappy movies at the Uptown are pretty 
exciting.  I heartily recommend a visit to the city around November 
16th if you are anywhere on the East Coast.  I have spoken to a 
couple of other local listies and there are some vague plans to have 
a marathon reading or something similar around movie time, plus of 
course a group Go See The Movie meeting, which will occur the second 
it opens.  All folks from the DC metro area, as well as Philly, 
Baltimore, and EVEN New York are invited to join us.
