The Eden Prairie mall looks like the only game in town I got. That's a 10-15 minute drive for me. Maybe 20.

Ah, I found the problem. That's a different theater on the other side of Houston (AMC Studio 30, while I'm next to the AMC Gulf 30), and it looks like the radius AMC expects you to be willing to drive to see a movie at another theater is far smaller than the city I live in. So when I tell it to show me "other locations" it's thinking in terms of distances for a kid on a bike rather than an adult with a car. Dumb.

I looked, and it worked for me, one nearby is showing on the 3rd and 4th.

And you are certainly an adult with a "car."

His final interview.
specifically for Wilder’s candid comments on Tim Burton’s 2005 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory adaptation.

“I think it’s an insult,” Wilder said of the Johnny Depp-starring remake. “Johnny Depp, I think, is a good actor, but I don’t care for that director [Tim Burton]. He’s a talented man, but I don’t care for him doing stuff like he did.”
I couldn't agree more Gene.
