The road to Glitter Gulch was closed to traffic in 1994, and the city embarked on construction of the Fremont Street Experience, designed exclusively for pedestrians.
#SCREENIT SAINT JOHN VEGAS MOVIE#
The western end of Fremont Street was quite literally the picture of Las Vegas that was included in virtually every tv show and movie displaying the lights of Vegas… think Elvis Presley in Viva Las Vegas 1964, or James Bond‘s Diamonds are Forever in 1971. Gambling was legalized in 1931 even though it was established well before then. Named for John Charles Fremont, it dates back to 1905 when Vegas was founded, and became the city’s first paved road in 1925. But there’s something old world and nostalgic about this area that keeps me coming back. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still packed on Friday and Saturday nights with plenty of freaky folks to rival those on LA’s Hollywood Boulevard. The scale of this area is much more human than the strip, with it’s mega casinos and hoards of tourists 20 deep on the streets. If you haven’t already been there, you must add it to your ‘to do’ list next time you’re in town. They’re one of my favorite attractions in old downtown Las Vegas, which is located at the north end of the strip on Fremont Street. Will either of these films thrive? Will any of the films on this week's list thrive? We will find out soon enough.Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Vintage Neon Cowboy, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier Vintage Neon Horse, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier Vintage Neon Glitter Gulch Sign, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier Vintage Neon Griffin Sign, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier Vintage Neon Showgirl Sign, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier Vintage Martini Neon Sign, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier Vintage Neon Swimmer Sign, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier Vintage Neon Starburst Sign, Las Vegas, Photo Romi Cortier On the other hand, Preacher's Kid is opening in what could be way too many theaters for a limited release while it has no review on Rotten Tomatoes. For instance, North Face earned awards in its native Germany and is earning strong reviews here. Not a large number of limited releases opening this week, but there are a few that are of interest, some for positive reasons, others not so much. However, unless the Oscar nominations help it at the box office, this will be the last time it appears on this list. On the other hand, Avatar has been on this list for seven weeks now earning an average $10,176 this past weekend. Saint John of Las Vegas rode an impressive cast to the top of the per theater chart with an average of $10,833, but given its reviews, I don't think it will stick around much longer. Looking for a Pick of the Week contender, there are a couple of TV on DVD releases that are prime contenders, Psych: The Complete Fourth Season and Mystery Science Theater 3000: Volume XVIII.īoth are worth picking up, but I'm going with MST3K as the Pick of the Week.
The best selling release of the week is also one of the worst films of the year.Īlso, there are not a lot of limited release / TV on DVD releases to pick up the pace, so the odds are that it will be a slow week in terms of sales. The dog days of summer continue on the home market.
