The exclusionary part really suprised me. After frequenting Balboa around '87 or so, and finding it fabulously fun, even making up new lines
we came back years later to find not just a whole new crowd, but one that looked at us like we were idiots - outsiders - and didn't feel welcome at all. The last experience with it just left me so disappointed.
Side note - my good friend was pushed from the stage one night, cutting the back of her leg on something and leading to her being taken by ambulance to Hoag... stopping the movie for quite a while in the process. Out of the blue, they got bouncers and just started pushing people during the time warp. All the while she wasn't even supposed to be there - what a fun time when her Dad met up with us all at the hospital.
