If they want to teach their employees sales tactics they can do so after everyone left in private so guest do not feel just like $$. Restrooms were also not very well maintained and seats had popcorn remains. ![]() I give this theatre a 1 star level just because theres no less rating than that, this was my first experience at this place, i had a situation, i bought my tickets online where they charged me even tho there was an error and the screen said to try again later cause something went wrong, and when i went to the actual building to talk and explained what happened the lady manager wasnt helpful at all, she didnt even try to log in on the system or anything, the other 2 guy managers were helpful but she seemed to be a store manager or something for the way she was dressed, unfortunately i dont know her name but was the only girl manager on the floor both times, when I left i said thank you and never looked at me or answer back, Im really disappointed cause this is the person is supposed to help and she made me left the place upset, NEVER GOING BACK THERE! This location has a lot to learn from other locations if they dont want to go broke given the fact that the theater was dead on a friday night! I love Santikos and I loved Wonderland Mall. Other titles opening in the Bijou Collection this month and next include “Three Thousand Years of Longing,” starring Tilda Swinton, “Moonage Daydream,” a documentary about David Bowie, the mystery “See How They Run,” and the 2022 Sundance Film Festival favorite, “God’s Country.”Īn online presence for the Bijou Collection is available on the Santikos website.Honestly, I think it would be the perfect place to do the "Sneak" concept. “I’m a creative person, and I love movies about art, and creating art, and how that affects your life process and your life choices.” Villanueva says he’s personally looking forward to it. The Bijou Collection opens this Friday with a San Antonio exclusive run of the A24 Studios film “ Funny Pages,” a darkly comedic coming-of-age story about an aspiring cartoonist that earned a three-minute ovation at its Cannes Film Festival premiere last May. Guests who are also part of the Santikos Movie Lovers rewards program can earn extra points on their accounts for checking off Bijou Collection titles within a given month. Villanueva said Santikos is also planning to bring in special guests, such as film professors from local universities, to facilitate discussions following select screenings at the theaters. “I think that’s a big part of the art house community, is not just seeing the movie and moving on, but talking about it afterwards and discussing… how made you feel, and maybe how you felt that first night, and then how you felt about it maybe a few weeks later.” “The Bijou Series really needed a home,” Villanueva explained. There’s even a channel specifically for spoiler-laden discussion. To facilitate that, Santikos has launched a series of channels on the social media app Discord, including a channel devoted to the Bijou series, as well as places to chat about other recent films and new releases. ![]() Nevertheless, Villanueva recognizes that part of the whole art house experience is bringing people together. While there still isn’t a full-service, dedicated art house theater in San Antonio, the Bijou Collection films are being rolled out at the Embassy and Palladium theaters, with the goal of spreading them around to other locations in the local chain’s fleet. “Movies that make you think differently, or make you feel differently” will be part of the programming series, said Rene Villanueva, Santikos’ Digital Media Manager, and one of the Bijou Collection programmers. This week, Santikos launches the Bijou Collection, an ongoing series of independent and thought-provoking films to bring audiences together. Indie film lovers in San Antonio who’ve been hungry for a big screen experience since the closing of the Santikos Bijou in March, 2022 have something new to enjoy. ![]()
