Well, a group decided to remedy that this year, to a point, and launched the <a href=\"http:\/\/dcmcinema.blogspot.com\/\">Dawson City Museum Cinema<\/a>. The venue, a conference room in the Dawson City Museum, is probably the best choice in this town. The image quality isn&#8217;t even remotely comparable to what you&#8217;d get at a theatre and the chairs aren&#8217;t that comfortable, but it&#8217;s still very much the cinematic experience of watching a picture with other people with the smell of popcorn in the air.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I work most evenings, so I haven&#8217;t been able to coordinate my schedule with that of the cinema. I decided to move heaven and earth to get to a showing tonight, though. Last year, I missed every single movie I wanted to see over the course of the summer, but this year there was only one on my list, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1228705\/\">Ironman 2<\/a>,\u00a0 and it was playing tonight in Dawson!<\/p>\n<p>I decided to make an event of it by pretending to be an adult and taking <a href=\"http:\/\/travelswithmiranda.uskeba.ca\/?p=7476\">our young worker<\/a> out for the night. We had chicken burgers at <a href=\"http:\/\/travelswithmiranda.uskeba.ca\/?p=1915\">Sourdough Joe&#8217;s<\/a>, got ice cream next door, then took a brief stroll around town as we finished our cones since we were a tad early for the movie.<\/p>\n<p>The movie wound up being even better than I would have expected, the kids who filled the room behaved, and the popcorn was delicious. Who cares that my legs are still numb from that seat; what a fun evening!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The only thing missing to make Dawson a perfect homebase for me (falafel and injara notwithstanding) is a movie theatre.
