It doesn't look all that.

Yeah, for serious. Ashibaka tock 21:14, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All that impressive to live up to its claim of the greatest cinema ever built? Not from the outside. You should see the inside though. pfctdayelise 03:56, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A photo of the interior would do the article much more justice. The current photo just shows the apartments built on top. The interior is truly magical. I wonder if we can get something from RMIT? Cnwb 09:17, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They do public tours on Fridays. I just have to be bothered to show up. :) IDK about this week, I'm planning on going to the tennis a fair bit. pfctdayelise 14:27, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Apartments

Were the apartments built at the same time and were they always intended to be apartments? It just doesn't look like my idea of a cinema.--A Y Arktos 11:30, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
