I bring my boys to the $2.00 Venture Value Theater in Duluth near Pleasant Hill Mall off I-85. Show times are not posted in the paper but are available by phone at 678-957-9545 or at link below. The theater is also connected to a shopping mall which has a nice indoor playground for the little ones.

Thanks John! This is awesome. I mentioned the Georgia Perimeter College Observatory on Better Mornings this morning – so thanks for that comment too!
