Setting Alamo Apart People always ask us what makes Alamo different from other theaters. It is our culture and our people, said Bill C DiGaetano, Alamo Drafthouse DFW, COO. Alamo always has been and will always be for movie lovers, by movie lovers. Since we are a theater for movie lovers, we took the 3 biggest annoyances of theater goers OUT of the Alamo equation. These include: concessions that cost more than your first car, advertisements longer than a line at the DMV, and talking/texting on cellphones during a film. At Alamo, you wont find any of these!
Friday, August 16, 2013 100 S. Central Expressway Building14 Richardson, TX 75080 (SW corner of Beltline and Central Expressway in the Richardson Heights Shopping Center) http://drafthouse.com/dfw/richardson Hit Alamo up online, um, after the movie: facebook.com/AlamoDrafthouseDFW twitter.com/AlamoDFW Tim League Bill C. DiGaetano A Haven for Cinephiles, Foodies, and Craft Beer/Cocktail Enthusiasts. And WAY over the top events Presentation quality. If filmmakers put that much effort into making high-quality films, shouldnt theaters show them the decency they deserve when showing their films? The answer is yes. Local breweries. And Alamo only serves fresh, highquality food. Yum. No talking or texting in a theater, and Alamo means business. Patrons are given one warning, then they are asked to leave if the disruption persists. Alamo insists, however, that laughing, crying, sighing and quietly asking your better half to pass another cold beer are all OK. The front rows of seats. NO ONE wants to sit there, so Alamo just left em out!

Whats missing:
Ad-free custom pre-shows. No one deserves to be inundated with ads after paying for a ticket so Alamo has none. Instead moviegoers enjoy a
custom pre-show made in-house. Many times the pre-show will be directly related to the film, so get to there early.
Bill DiGaetano expounds: Nobody should have to pay for a movie ticket and then be bombarded by commercials. Isnt this the reason we all have DVRs? Commercials and advertisements are out, custom pre-show shorts that are typically tailored to the show you are going to see are in, so come early and enjoy!
Alamos known for them. Special events, Alamostyle, will begin rolling in shortly after opening. Freshly prepared food made from scratch, great cocktails and wine, and 32 craft beers on tap. Drafthouse is their middle name after all. Also check out their signature wine Series. For example, last year, Alamo partnered with The Princess Bride with the wine: BOTTLE OF WITS. This year, patrons could chose to eat some liver with fava beans paired with a nice Chianti. www.drafthouse.com/blog/entry/introducing_the_al amo_drafthouse_limited_edition_silence_of_the_lam bs
Bill DiGaetano reiterates: Food and film are our passions. Whether watching the latest Hollywood blockbuster and enjoying our traditional menu or coming for one of our signature feasts where food and drinks are paired in a multi-course feast that complements the film, our food is always made from scratch inside our 3,000square-foot kitchen.
