Awful!! by Guest G. via Judy's Book on 9/24/2008
I use to go to this theater many years ago and found myself there a couple of weeks ago (a movie i had missed was still playing there)...If was the worst experience ever...my friend got bitten by something and had an allergic reaction to…
cheap independent film showcase by Kevin P via Insider Pages on 11/4/2005
The Academy 6 is a theater that I used to visit all the time when I lived in South Pasadena. The prices are unbeatable, and they play a lot of movies that you can't find anywhere else. They offer double features, so for $4 (matinee), you…
Old time movies by Carolyn J via Insider Pages on 11/3/2005
When I was a kid, my dad took a second job in a movie theatre. I loved going to work with him, running up and down the aisles between shows, and hiding in the velvet curtains. The Academy 6 reminds me of those days. One gets a great…
Great place to see 2nd run films by Kevin P. via Judy's Book on 8/4/2005
When I lived in Pasadena, I had a number of different theaters to choose to see my favorite movies. I often found myself going to the Academy 6, even though it is an older theater. Most of the time they show two films on each screen, so…
Support this theatre by Sara H via Insider Pages on 6/29/2005
It's kind of sad, like a neglected dog once it's no longer a puppy. It needs a little love and attention, because it still has so much to offer. With a cheap movie price and a great selection of end-of-run films, it's definitely worth…
For the film-lover on a budget by ima p via Insider Pages on 6/23/2005
Not only are their ticket prices just right for the frugal film buff, but this theatre is a "second-chance" theatre to see independent films that you missed at all the "nicer" more expensive theatres. The theatre itself is in need in…
Last Chance on the Big Screen by D. R via Insider Pages on 6/17/2005
This would be a "dollar movie theatre" in the rest of the country (major metropolitan areas excluded), but in L.A. it's a steal at 6 bucks. The screens are small, and often off-center and, sometimes, the theatres aren't cleaned out between…
Budget with a heart by P V via Insider Pages on 6/16/2005
This is one of the last of those movie theatres that used to have one screen and a huge audience area that included a balcony and all that jazz. The theatre was divided over 15 years ago into 6 smaller viewing areas, and there is…
Great Art-house Movies! by andrea b via Insider Pages on 3/3/2005
Great Art-house Movies at almost half the cost of the other art house theaters like Leamlle's. Consessions are cheap and good. Staff is nice and cheerful
PROS: WONDERFUL MOVIES. I LOVE THIS THEATER AND THE MOVIES THEY PLAY
CONS: Very…
Cheap and Cheerful by Michael B via Insider Pages on 3/1/2005
This is one of the few second-run theaters in the Pasadena area. If you're reaction to "second-run" is "What?! But I want to see Shrek 5 on opening weekend!", then this theater is not for you.\r

This is also an arty theater, where you…
