Rio Theatre

Now that it has been fully restored, the Rio Theatre immediately recalls the splendour of its grand opening in 1938. Hiding behind the old-fashioned aesthetics, however, are a digital HD projector and surround-sound speakers that immerse filmgoers in an eclectic array of first-run blockbusters and cinema classics. Showing films again as of April 2012, the theatre’s movie selection ranges from sci-fi and horror to wholesome family films, though the program coalesces around a love for pop culture that the owners share with their most ardent fans.

Aside from the daily show times, cult classics—frequently in their original 35 mm form—screen at midnight on Fridays. Guests from all walks of life come out to these packed showings, where they can snack on popcorn made with real butter or win prizes for dressing in costume as their favourite character or key grip. The 420-seat theatre also hosts concerts and events throughout the year, including past performances by Janeane Garofalo and local musicians Bend Sinister.

The Groupon Guide to: the Dream Team

The Dream Team was the best that ever was. Their dunking, shooting, and passing abilities skyrocketed them to the top of the international basketball scene. Let’s take a look at some of the skills that earned them this nickname:

Michael Jordan
Specialty: The one where all his teeth would fall out

Larry Bird
Specialty: The one where he would be late for a basketball test and he would show up naked and everyone would be disappointed in him

Magic Johnson
Specialty: He’s at his house but his house is the beach and he’s crying because he will never be able to eat all the steaks in the world.

Charles Barkley
Specialty: A dream about going to the bathroom

Patrick Ewing
Specialty: He’s being chased by a shadowy figure. He runs and runs but his legs move as though stuck in some demonic pudding. A cold sweat breaks upon his face as above, one by one, the stars burn out. All is black. The figure is near. He tries to scream. He has no mouth. His beloved crossover dribbles and layups are useless now. They cannot save him.

What were the specialties of the Dream Team? Find out in today’s Groupon Guide.
