The crest seems to be Seattle's last true discount theater (that has managed to resist the admission hike that the Admiral in west Seattle has succumbed to).
It has the feeling of a discount theater... sort of old fashoned and funky in a good way. The movies that are played are a combination of Blockbusters (screeed a while after their first run), and more off-beat indie type movies.
The actual theater is really pleasant and intimate... it is a small room with steep rows of chairs riseing to the back, and going there feels like taking part in some sort of almost personal event.
I'd go to this theater all the time if it wasn't located so far north of the city.
