"PERFECT FOR THE AVON CROWD!!"---Dr. Skippy P. Hustonovitch
Billy (Michael Douglas), Paddy (Robert De Niro), Archie (Morgan Freeman) and Sam (Kevin Kline) have been best friends since childhood. So when Billy, the group's sworn bachelor, finally proposes to his thirty-something (of course) girlfriend, the four head to Las Vegas with a plan to stop acting their age and relive their glory days. However, upon arriving, the four quickly realize that the decades have transformed Sin City and tested their friendship in ways they never imagined. The Rat Pack may have once played the Sands and Cirque du Soleil may now rule the Strip, but it's these four who are taking over Vegas.

In the near future, a hostile alien race (called the Formics) have attacked Earth. If not for the legendary heroics of International Fleet Commander Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley), all would have been lost. In preparation for the next attack, the highly esteemed Colonel Hyrum Graff (Harrison Ford) and the International Military are training only the best young children to find the future Mazer. Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy, but strategically brilliant boy is pulled out of his school to join the elite. Arriving at Battle School, Ender quickly and easily masters increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect amongst his peers. Ender is soon ordained by Graff as the military's next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he's trained by Mazer Rackham, himself, to lead his fellow soldiers into an epic battle that will determine the future of Earth and save the human race. Based on the best-selling, award winning novel, ENDER'S GAME is an epic adventure which stars Asa Butterfield, Hailee Steinfeld, Ben Kingsley, Viola Davis, with Abigail Breslin and Harrison Ford.

So, we all survived the MIDNIGHT showing of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW for another wild season!
Since its tradition to always show you a staff photo of how our staff girls looked those nights, here you go....
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

AVON STAFF (l to r) Jill Monroe, Leslie Dale, Jamie Hanson, Sydney Buechler,
Co-Manager Bridget Spitzer, Brynna Bergin, Melissa Huston-Rinchiuso,
General Manager Ashley Petty, Co-Manager Hannah Elliott, and...
on the floor in front: Team Leader Megan Markwell (Skip's niece)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
We had literally HUNDREDS come for both midnight shows, and a good time was had by all!

Time its time to put Halloween away for another year and look toward the holidays.

I'll tell you this much: The next two months are CRAMMED with incredible movies!!
Many of them we'll have at the Avon!!
(With only 3 screens, we can't play them ALL!)

BUT...we'll play as many as we are able!
I'll be making those brutal choices of what we can and can't play!!
So, when you talk about the Avon as having "hand-picked movies, that's really the truth!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Come See Us this Weekend! 
-We're Looking for you and you and...YOU!
-Skip Huston
