   My theater of choice in the Fairmont area. It's got stadium seating, decent sound, and the employees are generally pretty laid back and considerate. Everything here is old. I feel like I'm walking into a theater in the 1970s, but that's kind of neatly nostalgic for me. A lot of the improvements, such as stadium seating look homemade. It's well kept up though. It's also the absolute cheapest in the area ($4.50 matinee), and in the end aren't you just paying to watch a movie? You can do that here just as well as in the Morgantown or Clarksburg mall where you'd pay 2 or 3 dollars more per person. If you live in Fairmont already, when you add gas price on to the travel between the other theaters and back it's just not worth it. Unless you're trying to impress someone. This isn't a theater to impress someone with. It is however a fun cheap theater to hang out and watch a movie with your friends. My absolute favorite feature about this theater is that the movies always start on time! The previews begin at about 15 min before the feature starts, but you can actually know when you'll be leaving by when the movie is supposed to start so it's good for being able to schedule your day or babysitter. If you want to catch the previews get there early, and I've never known this theater to play the many many random advertisements (like for Sprite or Nike) before the film like they do at the more expensive theaters. Go here, watch a movie, and you'll come out on time and with more money in your pocket.

   This theater is average, sure it's not the cleanest but I never get that feeling about the seats. I can't comment on the staff because I know most of them. The price is good, actually it's the best part. If you live/are staying in Fairmont, it's the best option. movie tickets are $6.50 plus it's in town. You can go out of town (Clarksburg or Morgantown) and pay $7.50 - $9.50 for a ticket and $5 for gas roundtrip, then the food is also more expensive if you get anything to eat or drink. Good choice for the thrifty spender.
