If you're going to see that blockbuster movie, go to see it here at Park West in the PDX Cinema (huge screen). It costs a bit more $12 (Tuesdays are $8!!), but the seats are the best ever and the screen is insane. Sit right up front on the ground level, it's the best... There are a few restaurants around as well. Which which, a great sandwich place, is right next door.
