Animal House Coming to The Plaza Theatre April 17 - Two Shows

 From http://plazaatlanta.com/
Join us as we relive the glory days of Delta Tau Chi's pledge class of '62 at the Plaza Theatre. And in true Animal House tradition, this will be a classic college bash. Three words: kegs, camaraderie, and togas.
What To Expect
    Admission to one viewing of Animal House at 7:30 p.m. or 9:45 p.m. on Thursday, April 17th
    The classiest cup of suds you've ever enjoyed – a red solo cup brimming with keg beer
    An inordinate amount of laughter



Walking through just about any college campus in the spring and you're liable to see fraternity and sorority shenanigans taking place around campus. Just the sight of a cornhole game gets us feeling a little nostalgic for the good ol' days – days where the red solo cups overflowed with cheap beer and we proudly sported our greek letters about campus. But who says we can't relive those glory days? Get out your togas, friends – we're throwing a party, Animal House style.

On Thursday, April 17th the Plaza Theatre invites us back in time to join Delta Tau Chi's pledge class of '62. Take part in an all-out college-style bacchanal – complete with keg, camaraderie and competition. What kind of competition? A toga competition, naturally (make sure to bring your Alpha game). Then, you and your red solo cup can join your new pledge brethren for a viewing of the college classic Animal House on the Plaza's silver screen.

Josh Elliott Leaves “GMA,” Jumps to NBC as Possible Matt Lauer Replacement

From: showbiz411.com -- by Roger Friedman - March 31, 2014
 Crazy stuff tonight: Josh Elliott is leaving ABC’s “Good Morning America” for NBC Sports. NBC Sports? Yes, that’s right. ABC wouldn’t meet his demand for $8 million a year, offered only $4-$5 million (up from $800,000 a year) so Josh is moving to NBC Sports. As in: Olympics and other miscellaneous sporting events. He’s not replacing Bob Costas or anyone else. But really, do you think he left the exposure of national TV every morning for that? The answer is: no. NBC needs someone else besides Willie Geist ready to take over for Matt Lauer when his contract runs out. With the ratings in such bad shape, it’s unlikely that Lauer will continue with “Today” past 2014. Right now, all they have is Geist, and he’s not ready. But Elliott is. A popular presence on “GMA,” he comes with a good Q rating. The morning audience knows him and likes him. You could absolutely see him transitioning into Lauer’s chair in November when Savannah Guthrie is back from maternity leave. And really, if NBC gave him more than $5 million a year, it wasn’t to be announcing golf scores. And if Elliott steps into the “Today” show slot, this wounds ABC. NBC has taken a key male morning presence off their side of the chess board. Just remember, I told you this first.

"Taken 3" to Film in Atlanta

From accessatlanta.com

"Taken 3," starring Liam Neeson, films in Atlanta soon
"The plot is unknown at this time," its imdb page says, but we're guessing it might be about someone who gets kidnapped? Just a guess.
We're told location folks are scouting some lovely homes in the Buckhead area, near where "Catching Fire" did a good bit of filming, followed by "Mockingjay," which has been filming in Atlanta for months now. (Most recently at a huge set north of the city).
In a recent interview with GQ, Neeson sounded surprised at how popular the "Taken" series has become.
 "I wanted to do more physical stuff," he told GQ. "I really thought it would be kind of a little side road from my so-called career. Really thought it would go straight to video. But it just got great word of mouth. I was stunned."
Neeson, who was in Atlanta last year for a cameo role in "Anchorman 2," is likely to keep a low profile when he returns for T3. He gave up drinking and is not interested in dating since the death of his wife, Natasha Richardson.

"I’m keeping myself to myself," he told GQ. "And I like it that way. I’m not hunting. I’m the opposite of a—what would a male cougar be? Is there such a thing? Whatever it is, I’m not that."

Spotlight on Ray's Indian Originals in Avondale

 From Ray's Indian Originals website.
We are a family business, started by my mother and father in 1973. My father’s native heritage offered our family many unique opportunities to meet some of the most beautiful people and blessed us with the joy of appreciation for some of the most incredible and unique native artwork in the world! Swift Arrow Trading is the online store for Ray’s Indian Originals Avondale Store, located in Avondale, Georgia.

We hope you enjoy our selection of indian pottery created by various tribes including Acoma, Hopi, Santa Clara, San Ildefonso, Zuni, San Juan, Cochiti, and Jemez. We carry a large selection of Native American woven baskets including representations from tribes such as: Apache, Hopi, Alaskan, and California tribes. Our Native American woven baskets are of exceptional quality with tribes that include Hopi, Zuni, Navajo and Santo Domingo. We also have a great selection of Navajo weavings and rugs.

We have been blessed over the years with great clients and friends. We hope with your support we will continue to grow and learn with you. Our goal is to bring a greater appreciation of the first Americans. They maybe the smallest minority, however in my mind, they could teach us all a lot about their love of this land, their family and a spiritual connection we all long for.

If you’re ever in Atlanta, please come by and visit! Phone: (404) 292-4999

Peace be with you.

Walgreens project looks to be a model of historic preservation.

 From: http://atlurbanist.tumblr.com
 --

Downtown Atlanta’s Walgreens project looks to be a model of historic preservation. The images above, posted elsewhere by a fellow downtowner, show the care that’s being taken with the beautiful Olympia Building.

The 1935 building, famous for its Coca Cola sign, has been empty for years. And after having had a portion removed during the 1990s, it bears little resemblance to its former self, when it served as a bustling center of activity in Atlanta’s Five Points intersection.
The current building owner is committed to doing a full restoration of the structure and re-enclosing the portion lost in the 90s. And now we learn that Walgreens is planning to fill the space with a two-story, truly urban store. It will sell the store’s usual goods, along with beer and wine and dry groceries.

Having a new place to shop for necessities will be great for downtowners like my family. Doing so in a beautifully restored building is more than I could’ve hoped for, particularly in a city not known for its preservation efforts.

The Atlanta Film Festival March 28-April 6.

From: www.accessatlanta.com
By Howard Pousner

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The Atlanta Film Festival has announced the films that will command the prestigious opening and closing slots of the 38th annual fest, March 28-April 6.

The opening night feature will be “Joe,” starring Nicolas Cage as a hard-living ex-con who meets a hard-luck 15-year-old boy and becomes an unlikely protector and role model. Based on the novel by the late Mississippi writer Larry Brown, the Texas-set drama is directed by David Gordon Green (HBO’s “Eastbound and Down,” “Pineapple Express”), who will appear at the screening.

The closing film is “The Double,” a black comedy starring Jesse Eisenberg (“The Social Network”) as timid, isolated Simon, whose life is turned upside down by the arrival of a co-worker, James (also played by Eisenberg), who shares his appearance but is his opposite in terms of confidence, charisma and ease with the opposite sex. Also featuring Mia Wasikowska, “The Double” is directed by Richard Ayoade (the British sitcom “The IT Crowd”). It will show April 5, with the fest’s final day reserved for encore showings.

Atlanta Film Festival screenings will be at the Plaza Theatre and 7 Stages. To see lists of 15 narrative features and 15 documentaries coming to the fest, go to http://blogs.ajc.com/arts-culture. More on the fest: www.atlantafilmfestival.com.

At Last...Warren Beatty to Play Howard Hughes

From: showbiz411.com
EXCLUSIVE: Good news! Warren Beatty is finally moving forward with his untitled “Howard Hughes” movie. What we do know is that a production office is in full swing at New Regency, the company making the film with Beatty. New Regency is newly hot these days with the arrival of Brad Pitt’s production company, and a major credit for “12 Years a Slave.” They’ve also got the next Cameron Crowe film, and Ben Affleck’s “Gone Girl.”

I put quotes around Howard Hughes’s name because it’s unclear whether the title character, to be played by Beatty, is still the infamously reclusive billionaire movie producer/aviator/raconteur/enigma. I’ve heard that Beatty, who’s written the screenplay himself, may have abandoned the idea of using Hughes, and decided to create his own character rather than deal with Hughes’s biographical baggage. That much remains in the air.

Right now the imdb calls the Beatty film “The Rules Don’t Apply.” There’s also a cast list that includes everyone from Jack Nicholson to Alec Baldwin. But sources say that “nothing on the imdb” is correct. The movie supposedly recounts a romance Hughes had with a young actress in his later years. Ironically, Beatty himself is now a few years older than Hughes was when he died at age 71. Of course, Beatty looks ten times younger than Hughes did even then.

Beatty is maybe the smartest guy in Hollywood, with a sharp eye and excellent taste. He’s an Oscar winner for “Reds,” and has on his resume many great films from “Shampoo” to “Bugsy” to “Heaven Can Wait” and “Dick Tracy” and “Bulworth.”  Some other projects, like “Love Affair” and “Town and Country” did not fare as well. But a new Warren Beatty film is reason for excitement. And we need a little buzz in this, the worst month for movies ever it seems!
