Master Pancake at the Lamar on July 25!



MASTER PANCAKE THEATER returns to the Alamo screens this month with perhaps the ultimate summer movie of all time - CONAN THE BARBARIAN. Now, I know, CONAN might not have as many explosions as other movies. And there aren't giant robots, either (but can you imagine how awesome it would be if Conan did fight a Transformer?). I stand by the claim of CONAN as an ultimate movie of the summer, though, because no one in the movie bothers with those pesky "shirts" that we're all burdened with whenever we aren't at Barton Springs.

Of course, a lack of clothing isn't the only requirement when you're cooking up an ultimate summer movie; you also need plenty of quotable lines. And 25 years ago, Arnold Schwarzenegger said one of the greatest lines of movie history:


"Top 3 things in life: To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women."

Ahhhh. What more can you want? Oh! How about if this month's rotating cast member to join John and Joe was actually TWO cast members? And what if they're Mac Blake and David Jara, all around funnymen and award-winning filmmaker duo responsible for the number one BLANKS ON A BLANK film, RACCOONS ON A SPACE SHUTTLE?

MASTER PANCAKE will be rotating between the Village and South Lamar every Wednesday during the interim while we await the construction to finish at the Ritz, starting July 11. Don't miss it!
