These are the things that I look for in a good movie theater:
1) Comfortable seats, ideally stadium seating.
2) Big screen, good sound system.
3) Lots of choices of good films to see.
4) A bunch of posters so you can know what films are coming.
What about the food? Well, I don’t like movie theater food! I usually sneak-in a peanut butter sandwich or some oatmeal cookies.

Lights Camera Jackson has been co-starring in photographs with his favorite celebrities since he was 6 years old. “American Idol” host Ryan Seacrest appeared in the first. Seacrest was a VIP guest at a local telethon. Jackson, a big fan of “Idol”, approached Seacrest during a break and asked for an autograph. The “Idol” star eagerly obliged. Jackson and Ryan then posed for this photo.
Since then Jackson’s collection of photos with stars from film, TV, stage and sports has grown to over 400. Every one represents a special moment in the life/career of Lights Camera Jackson and includes its own unique backstory.
