Comfy, classic theater with great beer

The Academy Theater is a welcoming spot with three small theaters and a menu that includes Oregon microbrews and pizza from the adjacent Flying Pie Pizzeria. The Academy is a great deal ( $4 for adults, $3 for kids and seniors) and they show a cool mix of movies -- mainstream fare, kids' flicks and more "alternative" selections. The employees are friendly, the theaters are clean (and they have neat trays that go in the seat cupholders to hold your beverage and pizza) and it's got a fun neighborhood vibe. They even offer babysitting during afternoon shows.

A great date and family oriented

The Academy theater is truly wonderful. For 3$ a movie you can't beat it. They show fairly new/slightly old releases. It's clean, cheap, and they provide childcare for a reasonable price. Also, they have pints, popcorn, pop, and pizza from Flying Pie Pizzeria. For less than 20 dollars (not including the childcare) you and your date can watch a movie, have dinner, and a beer. It's awesome.
