Have you ever read a review of a movie or game and thought to yourself "I can do that"?

Well, now is your chance. See that reviews link to the left there? Click on that and you can write your own movie or game review.
If you click now you will see a review titled "AA How to write a review", if you click on that it you can read a short "how to" of sorts explaining what to do.

Two things to keep in mind if you plan on writing a review.
1. You do not need be registered to write a review, but it makes things slightly easier, you can register HERE.
2. We need to approve the review before it's seen on the website, this is to keep the spam and one word reviews down to a minimum.

So c'mon, let us know about that title that you absolutely love, or even the one you underly despise.

You know that FAQ link on the left? I think it's about time to actually put it to use.
We have one problem though, We need questions to answer.

So we are asking for your help, Here's what you can do.

If you're registered with oldRialto.com you can go to the forum and post your question(s) in the thread that was created. We will answer your question and add it to the FAQ

I was out and about the other day and came across a place that does custom embroidering on hats, I just couldn't pass on this opportunity and had a hat embroidered with one of the things I love most (after the obvious things like my family). It's an Old Rialto hat!

I'm in talks right now with a professional graphic designer about making a logo for the Old Rialto, when that is done I think I may get another hat with the new logo on it.
after all is said and done I'm thinking I may be able to get hats made for anyone that wants to purchase one. I'll be looking around for the cheapest place to get them made, while still keeping a high quality.

without further delay, here's the picture of the hat.


what do you think?

We just want to let everyone know that we have not forgotten about the theatre.

We are in the process of trying to sell our house in California so we can move to Kenedy and put more work into the building.

This is still one of our dreams and we refuse to give up on it.

There's not much to post about concerning the theatre, or the building in general.

However, that's not going to stop me from letting anyone I come across know all about the Old Rialto.

I've been playing Forza motorsport 2 a lot lately. One of the great things about the game is it's decal editor. you can make just about anything you want, so long as you have the patience.

If you play the game then don't be surprised if you come across my car. I lovingly call it the Old Rialto mobile.





If you have an xbox live account then feel free to add me as a friend, just be sure to let me know your from the Old Rialto. My gamertag is PurplePenguin04 (That's a zero next to the four).

See you on the road.

We have decided once again to make some changes to the website. This change, however, does effect some of you. Anyone who was registered with our forums (including myself) will need to register again. We decided to make this change relatively early in the websites life so to avoid inconveniencing as many people as we can. We feel the benefits far outweigh the consequences in this case. One thing I feel needs mentioning, when you pick your user name you can no longer use spaces. If you want a space in your name you will have to make do with a dash " - " or an underscore " _ ", so instead of Purple Penguin I chose to use Purple-Penguin.

Now, as a registered member, you will have the ability to do more then simply posting in a forum. For example, registered members can now post their own reviews of movies and games (see the reviews link on the left). In your reviews you can give a score from half a star up to five stars.

We hope you enjoy your time at the, more community driven, OLD RIALTO website.

P.S. The site is still being worked on so you may see a few strange happenings here and there.

We've been mentioned in the local newspaper, The Countywide.

Neither my wife nor I were mentioned in the article but that's okay with us, we're not in this for the fame and recognition Besides, we haven't done as much work on the theater as the two people mentioned in the paper, We do all the work on the website.

CLICK HERE FOR THE ARTICLE

We posted last year that someone had broken into the theater and stole all of our tools.

Early in January the Kenedy Police department contacted us to let us know that our generator had been recovered. None of the other tools were found at that time and to my knowledge no arrests were made. Due to the ongoing investigation we decided not to release this information at that time to avoid causing any problems.

Now, thanks to the police department and the awesome citizens of Kenedy, the person responsible for the break in and theft has been caught and every single tool has been recovered. From the Generator right down to the saws-all blade, literally every single tool stolen has been recovered.

It's not often that I, personally, hear about stolen property being recovered, especially something like tools. Add to the equation that we don't even live in Kenedy yet and I honestly thought we would never see those tools again.

Color me impressed, Kenedy, I'm falling even more in love with you. I look forward to the day that I can call myself a Kenedy resident.

Edit: I have been informed that this will be mentioned in The Countywide tomorrow.

It's been a while since this work was done and many of you have already seen it but for those of you that have not, here are a few picture of the work that was done on the marquee.

I'm doing some experimenting with a new front page. this one will make it much easier to keep you updated with with any news.

The old page required me to completely rework the entire page's HTML coding and then uploading the new page over the old one. Also, I could only do this from my own computer since it's the only one that has the web page templates.

This new one is as easy as typing what I want to say and then simply hitting enter, and I can do it from any computer that has internet access. Also, the other people involved with the theater can add news posts as well if they so choose (you can see who posted at the bottom of each news post).

updating the rest of the site will still require me to do it the old fashioned way but the other pages do not need to be updated as often. I do want to get the rest of the site to fit into this new theme though.

I may still need to do some fine tuning so please bare with me for a while.

oh, one more thing, you can now comment on any of the news posting. To comment, first click on the "comments" link in the bottom of the post to show the comments so far. then, to post your own comment, click on the "post a comment" link. Try it now to get the hang of it, just say anything that comes to your head.
