As usual about this time, I caution you "Avon movie" fans to watch carefully when a smaller release gets squeezed in with all the big stuff. When you see one, do not delay! Get down to see it!! Summer is the time of BIG movies, and we try to slip a few of the smaller "Avon movies" in whenever we can, but they will only play a week! Many of you understand we need the big blockbusters to make it viable to bring the smaller "Avon movies" in for the rest of the year. So, don't feel we have forgotten you, or left you behind. We are just filling up the coffers for the Fall when the "Avon movies" come back. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I appreciate all the referrals you have sent us for the "Help Wanted" ad, but please remember we ONLY interview in person, and you can only apply in person. When I get all the phone calls of "Are you hiring?" and the endless questions of "Can I apply online?", I'm very surprised how few read our instructions! So, remember to have a candidate READ the requirements and application instructions. They can only apply IN-PERSON and ONLY with our GM Ashley Petty when she is here (again, in the instructions). The Avon is a wonderful work environment, and most of our people stay for many years; through high-school, college and even after that. But, we are VERY particular of whom we hire. Maybe that's why so many of you compliment us on our staff! We never hire just to fill a slot. There are plenty of my family members who can do that. We hire someone for our TEAM, and we need to make sure the fit is perfect. I honestly think schools should do more to teach job finding skills to their students. When someone walks in improperly dressed, and with no clue how to be in an interview, I wonder if ANYONE is trying to teach these kids a single thing about job-finding! +++++++++++ POPCORN-TO-GO!! Did you know you can always pull up to the Avon and pick up just popcorn if you want? That's right! Whenever we are open, just walk in and get some of the best popcorn in the known universe!! We not only don't mind, we find it a great compliment! +++++++++++ The Avon Theater has been YOUR locally owned & family-operated 'hometown theater' for 100 Years THIS YEAR!! This weekend, I'm looking for ALL of you and, especially...YOU!! SkipTan.bmp- Skip Huston ++++++++++++++++++++++ STARTS FRI, MAY 13th!!

Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel's X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.

Directed by James Bobin, who brings his own unique vision to the spectacular world Tim Burton created on screen in 2010 with "Alice in Wonderland," the film is written by Linda Woolverton based on characters created by Lewis Carroll and produced by Joe Roth, Suzanne Todd and Jennifer Todd and Tim Burton with John G. Scotti serving as executive producer. "Alice Through the Looking Glass" reunites the all-star cast from the worldwide blockbuster phenomenon, including: Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska and Helena Bonham Carter along with the voices of Alan Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen and Timothy Spall. We are also introduced to several new characters: Zanik Hightopp (Rhys Ifans), the Mad Hatter's father and Time himself (Sacha Baron Cohen), a peculiar creature who is part human, part clock. Alice Kingsleigh (Wasikowska) has spent the past few years following in her father's footsteps and sailing the high seas. Upon her return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass and returns to the fantastical realm of Underland and her friends the White Rabbit (Sheen), Absolem (Rickman), the Cheshire Cat (Fry) and the Mad Hatter (Depp), who is not himself. The Hatter has lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Hathaway) sends Alice on a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the Grand Clock which powers all time. Returning to the past, she comes across friends - and enemies - at different points in their lives, and embarks on a perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out. Presented in Digital 3D(TM), Real D 3D and IMAX (R) 3D, Disney's "Alice Through the Looking Glass" opens in U.S. theaters on May 27, 2016.

As usual about this time, I caution you "Avon movie" fans to watch carefully when a smaller release gets squeezed in with all the big stuff. When you see one, do not delay! Get down to see it!! Summer is the time of BIG movies, and we try to slip a few of the smaller "Avon movies" in whenever we can, but they will only play a week! Many of you understand we need the big blockbusters to make it viable to bring the smaller "Avon movies" in for the rest of the year. So, don't feel we have forgotten you, or left you behind. We are just filling up the coffers for the Fall when the "Avon movies" come back. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I appreciate all the referrals you have sent us for the "Help Wanted" ad, but please remember we ONLY interview in person, and you can only apply in person. When I get all the phone calls of "Are you hiring?" and the endless questions of "Can I apply online?", I'm very surprised how few read our instructions! So, remember to have a candidate READ the requirements and application instructions. They can only apply IN-PERSON and ONLY with our GM Ashley Petty when she is here (again, in the instructions). The Avon is a wonderful work environment, and most of our people stay for many years; through high-school, college and even after that. But, we are VERY particular of whom we hire. Maybe that's why so many of you compliment us on our staff! We never hire just to fill a slot. There are plenty of my family members who can do that. We hire someone for our TEAM, and we need to make sure the fit is perfect. I honestly think schools should do more to teach job finding skills to their students. When someone walks in improperly dressed, and with no clue how to be in an interview, I wonder if ANYONE is trying to teach these kids a single thing about job-finding! +++++++++++ POPCORN-TO-GO!! Did you know you can always pull up to the Avon and pick up just popcorn if you want? That's right! Whenever we are open, just walk in and get some of the best popcorn in the known universe!! We not only don't mind, we find it a great compliment! +++++++++++ The Avon Theater has been YOUR locally owned & family-operated 'hometown theater' for 100 Years THIS YEAR!! This weekend, I'm looking for ALL of you and, especially...YOU!! SkipTan.bmp- Skip Huston ++++++++++++++++++++++ STARTS FRI, MAY 13th!!

Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel's X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.

Directed by James Bobin, who brings his own unique vision to the spectacular world Tim Burton created on screen in 2010 with "Alice in Wonderland," the film is written by Linda Woolverton based on characters created by Lewis Carroll and produced by Joe Roth, Suzanne Todd and Jennifer Todd and Tim Burton with John G. Scotti serving as executive producer. "Alice Through the Looking Glass" reunites the all-star cast from the worldwide blockbuster phenomenon, including: Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska and Helena Bonham Carter along with the voices of Alan Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen and Timothy Spall. We are also introduced to several new characters: Zanik Hightopp (Rhys Ifans), the Mad Hatter's father and Time himself (Sacha Baron Cohen), a peculiar creature who is part human, part clock. Alice Kingsleigh (Wasikowska) has spent the past few years following in her father's footsteps and sailing the high seas. Upon her return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass and returns to the fantastical realm of Underland and her friends the White Rabbit (Sheen), Absolem (Rickman), the Cheshire Cat (Fry) and the Mad Hatter (Depp), who is not himself. The Hatter has lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Hathaway) sends Alice on a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the Grand Clock which powers all time. Returning to the past, she comes across friends - and enemies - at different points in their lives, and embarks on a perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out. Presented in Digital 3D(TM), Real D 3D and IMAX (R) 3D, Disney's "Alice Through the Looking Glass" opens in U.S. theaters on May 27, 2016.
