For few years now I am going sometimes to cinema that is part of the Europa Cinemas network.
It is partly run by my city and one of the university. It is quite cool to be able to watch some art films from around the world, documentaries but they are still showing the big American blockbusters.
They don’t sell popcorn or cola but they have craft beers on tap that you can take with you to the screening room - my French friend really like that part of the experience ;-)
The tickets are really affordable ~6-10€ but I usually spend bit more on the beer.


There are a number of multiplexes in my city, all of which tend to follow the same sort of design philosophy across their respective brands (AMC, Regal, etc). However, the Alamo Drafthouse was opened right around the time of The Force Awakens, and it has a Star Wars theme in the lobby. There is a model Death Star hanging from the ceiling, and a replica of Palpatine’s throne from RotJ. If you sit in the throne, you can push a button on the armrest which demonstrates the model’s laser is quite operational. It’s kitschy af, but neat all the same.
