April <\/p>\n<p>5th. 11 am. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A person is a person, no matter how small.&#8221; -Dr. Seuss, from Horton<br \/>\nHears A Who <\/p>\n<p>Based on the Dr. Seuss classic, this new CG animated film tells the<br \/>\nstory of an imaginative elephant named Horton (Jim Carrey) who hears a<br \/>\ncry for help coming from a speck of dust floating through the air.<br \/>\nSuspecting there may be life on that speck, and despite everyone<br \/>\naround him who thinks he is losing <\/p>\n<p>his mind, Horton is determined to help. <\/p>\n<p>This is a great kids movie. I hope to see you there. <\/p>\n<p>We are going to try to have 11 am open captions movies every<br \/>\nSaturday. We would love to show more OC films. We are able to show<br \/>\ncaptions films when the distributer (the company that makes the movies<br \/>\nsuch as Disney, Columbia, ect&#8230;.) have an open caption disc to go<br \/>\nalong with the movie. Some of the movie companies such as Paramount<br \/>\nand Pixar, do not provide an OC disc to go along with the movie. This<br \/>\nmeans many children&#8217;s movies will not be able to be seen in captions<br \/>\non the big screen. Pixar is the one of the biggest producers of kid<br \/>\nmovies. They put captions on the DVD&#8217;s they sell after the movie is<br \/>\nreleased but do not have them when the movie is in the theater. I have<br \/>\nmade pleas to the movie distributors to provide captions with these<br \/>\nmovies but have gotten no response. Maybe if enough people let these<br \/>\ncompanies know we want the captions, they will provide them. Also, we<br \/>\nare trying to start scheduling an OC movie on Wed. nights as well. So<br \/>\nthat would mean 2 OC movies a week. I will let you know about the Wed.<br \/>\nnight films soon. <\/p>\n<p>Kid Policy: Children of all ages will only be allowed at movies that<br \/>\nstart before 6. <\/p>\n<p>Address:<\/p>\n<p>1120 S.
