Movie Theaters

Going to the movies is always an enjoyable activity. But in college, there are usually events that make going to the movies a little more interesting. At most schools, there are student groups that put on movie events such as "A movie in the Park", or something similar. They usually involve getting a bunch of students together for some late night snacks and projecting a newly released movie up on a big-screen. The fun of it is meeting new people and the opportunity of watching a movie in a new location, like in the park or a grassy courtyard on campus. Other great events include ski and snowboard video showings usually put on by the campus ski and snowboard club, and also independent films put on by the film school. These events can be found in the campus paper.

Another option is to stay in your dorm or apartment and have a movie night with your friends. It is always a hassle to have to go to the video store to pick out a movie and then have to get back there in time to return it to avoid late fees. Many students have discovered the convenience of Movielink(TM). Movielink is a downloadable movie rental and purchasing service that is much cheaper than video stores. You are able to download the movie in a couple minutes and watch it on your computer or tv. You can store the rental on your computer for 30 days and watch the movie for up to 24 hours.

The company offers a free trial download so you can test things out with no risk.
