A movie theater once occupied this space, but it burned down many years ago.<br />

N8 | Flood debris<br />
<br />
Last year's floods reached this area. It was about 1 meter deep around here. Above you can see a ton of neighborhood junk.<br />

N8 | Clean up<br />
<br />
A couple of days ago I heard some strange noise and looked out to see a clean up crew. They took a few hours to clear out the road, since heavy traffic made it hard for the trucks to haul the junk out. I was surprised they cleared out some of the trees.<br />

Both of these photos were shot with automatic settings and with the flash off. Strange what a difference 1 meter makes. <br /><br />I was a bit bummed the Taipei soda machines only take coins. <div class="blogger-post-footer"><i>Thanks for reading!</i>

<br />
<i>Tron 2 - AMC Woodland Hills</i><br />
Silly fun, great music. Didn't like the staff at the theater<br />
<br />
<i>Thor - AMC Universal Citywalk</i><br />
A bit of a letdown, but enjoyable. One of my favorite theaters in LA with two balconies and a a full IMAX.<br />
<br />
<i>Hangover 2 - CGV Cinemas - Koreatown</i><br />
Adlibs copy of the first, but laughs were had. Nice theater.<br />
<br />
<i>Attack the Block - Arclight Hollywood</i><br />
Fantastic. Ace theater.<br />
<br />
<i>Super 8 - Cineramadome - Arclight Hollywood</i><br />
A wannabe classic. The Dome is one of LA's landmark movie theaters every movie fan should visit.<br />
<br />
<i>Xmen First Class - Regency North Hollywood</i><br />
Good movie for a shit theater.<br />
<br />
<i>Captain America - UA Horton Plaza</i><br />
My favorite so far of the Avengers series. Shit theater.<br />
<br />
<i>Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 - RAVE IMAX</i><br />
Better than the book. Full sized IMAX is always a pleaser. Bonus cool points for the make your own soda machines.<br />
<br />
<i>Rise of the Planet of the Apes - VISTA Theater</i><br />
Lots of fun if you've seen the old Apes movies. One of my favorite theaters in LA<br />
<br />
<i>Adventures of TinTin - AMC Burbank IMAX</i><br />
Wonderful fun. Great use of 3D. Half IMAX was pretty good.<br />
<br />
<i>Mission Impossible 4 - Regency Van Nuys</i><br />
Went in with low expectations. Had fun. Mediocre theater.<br />
<br />
<i>The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - Regency Van Nuys</i><br />
Enjoyed it, but the ending dragged. <br />
<br />
<b><u>Special screenings I saw this year</u></b><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/drtran/6141489819/" title="Raiders marquee by Al Pavangkanan, on Flickr"><img alt="Raiders marquee" height="281" src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6084/6141489819_c5a668f668.jpg" width="500" /></a><br />
<i>Raiders of the Lost Arc - LA Live Regal Cinema</i><br />
Fantastic digital restoration. Nice theater.<br />
<br />
<i>Big Trouble in Little China - Egyptian Theater</i><br />
Why did I wait so long to see this? Best big screen in LA.<br />
<br />
<i>Love Exposure - Silent Movie Theater</i><br />
A good four hour confusion. Japanese cinema at its weirdest. Great little theater<br />
<br />
<i>Redline - Downtown Independent</i><br />
A crazy anime racing movie with a great rocking soundtrack. Great seating.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/drtran/6604261225/" title="#battleroyale at the Silent Movie Theater by Al Pavangkanan, on Flickr"><img alt="#battleroyale at the Silent Movie Theater" height="281" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7148/6604261225_cd86eec4eb.jpg" width="500" /></a><br />
<i>Battle Royale - Silent Movie Theater</i><br />
A cult classic I enjoyed with a great audience.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Screenings at the New Beverly Cinema</u></b><br />
The New Beverly is one of LA's great treasures. Cheap popcorn and drinks combine with lots of great movies and surprise guests makes it my favorite movie theater.<br />
<br />

<i>Dirty Harry + The SuperCops</i><br />
A double bill with cops who don't follow the rules.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/drtran/5460888496/" title="Turtle Power by Al Pavangkanan, on Flickr"><img alt="Turtle Power" height="375" src="http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5251/5460888496_89cd94dbbf.jpg" width="500" /></a><br />
<i>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles</i><br />
As good as I remember it.<br />
<br />

<i>Grindhouse ( Planet Terror + Deathproof) + Machete</i><br />
A Tarantino and Rodriguez triple feature. Good times. Sad I missed the good stuff during the Deathproof credits.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/drtran/5566118431/" title="20110327498 by Al Pavangkanan, on Flickr"><img alt="20110327498" height="375" src="http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5132/5566118431_e43c2251af.jpg" width="500" /></a><br />
<i>Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair</i><br />
Really cool to see both in one sitting. Little extras added for the double feature as well.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/drtran/6608386653/" title="2011-12-03-025 by Al Pavangkanan, on Flickr"><img alt="2011-12-03-025" height="375" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7014/6608386653_ecb5e5c188.jpg" width="500" /></a><br />
<i>Rushmore + The Royal Tenenbaums</i><br />
The first had me smiling the whole way through. The second was bittersweet.<br />
<br />

I got to test out Mario Kart 7 while at the LA Auto Show. It was a lot of fun. The 3D is very well done. The new items were interesting. I never figured out how to use the 7 super item. Mario Kart 7 is a blast to play with other people. Highly recommended!<br />

The show last night was one of the best. Kate Micucci showed up and sang a song. Brendon Small and Craig Anton showed up and did silly stuff with Ron Lynch and the Doorknockers. There was a stretch where I was laughing for 15 minutes straight. <br />

<b>N82 | My first hands on</b><br />
<br />
I have really enjoyed using my N8 over the past year. Most of the photos on this blog from the past year were shot with the N8. I am really glad there was a camera ui update for the Symbian Anna release. I switch modes a lot and the update made it easier to do so. I hope a future update makes the camera available from the lock screen.<br />

<b>N97 | N8 and the CR-115 </b><br />
<br />
Living in LA, I drive a lot. While most of the time I know where I'm going, I will use Nokia Maps anyway. The newest version has been working well in getting me around traffic spots. It reminds me when I'm speeding so I don't get a ticket. A lot of the time it gives me a weird route, so I disobey the directions. Hearing "route recalculation" is a bit annoying.<br />
