Description:
Join Alamo Drafthouse Mason (Katy) Hollywood Remakes that MUST BE STOPPED.

It would be more than slightly hypocritical for us to bad mouth the unquestionable brilliance of Hollywood but sometimes they do something that blows your mind.

One common practice of theirs is to remake movies that were perfect when they first came out and should never under any circumstances be revamped. Oftentimes the re-imagining of movies we all hold dear to our hearts ends up cheapening the original experience.

Here's your last chance to watch these classic films before Hollywood ends up cramming some half-assed remake down your throats.

The Karate Kid (1984)
Saturday November 22nd and Sunday November 23rd
7:30pm
$6.50

Everyone knows what it's like to move to a new town and to be constantly harassed by the local evil karate dojo.

Hey, it happens more than you would think.

What's a New Jersey boy in California to do?

This movie made everyone believe that taking a couple of odd jobs painting fences and waxing cars for the nice local Asian man and learning that lame crane kick was all it took to be a karate master. Ah, the naivety of the 80's was sublime.

You better take the chance to relive the nostalgia of the original Karate Kid before Will Smith, and his production company Overbook Entertainment, drop a big pile on your childhood with the upcoming remake starring…..you guessed it, Smith's son Jaden.

Ugh, the horror.
More about Alamo Drafthouse Mason Park
Alamo Drafthouse Mason Park
Phone Number: (281) 492-6900 The Alamo Drafthouse Cinema "The Best Theater in Austin" is now in Katy. We serve a full menu of dinner and drinks to your seat while you watch the movie. The theater is laid out like a traditional movie theater, except every other row of seats has been replaced with a long narrow table for your food and drinks. Those who have never been to the Alamo may worry about disruptions during the movie, but we have devised an ordering system that minimizes interaction during the film, allowing you to order, eat and enjoy the movie with minimal distraction. We recommend arriving early; seating begins 45 minutes before the show and there is always pre-movie entertainment on the screen while you wait for the movie. We have waiters that serve you at your seat; orders before the movie begins are taken in the traditional way. Once the movie starts if you need anything at all, there is paper and pencils at the table, write down what you need on the paper, stand the paper up on the card holder attached to the table. This acts as a flag, your waiter will only come by if he sees the card, otherwise he will stay out of your way so you can enjoy the film.
