For the past 8 years or so, I've enjoyed the Cobble Hill Cinema's opening intro (complete with catchy music and lasers and pinballs graphics) - it looks like it was made in about 1982 except for the fact that it says "please turn off pagers and cell phones" - I wonder if they just added that part at a later date? I do so love the intro and hope they never change it!Brooklynbeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10701246400288774330noreply@blogger.com
