Spectacle: $5 Movies in Williamsburg
With a multiplex on the way and a recently opened art-house theater, it seems like Williamsburg residents will no longer have to hop on the L train to fulfill their cinema needs. But more theaters does not always equal more options. After all, multiplexes tend to play more wide-release films
Swanky Cocktails and Big-Budget Views on the Cheap at Epic’s 3rd Anniversary Happy Hour Tomorrow
Last week we pointed you to Waterbar for cheap oysters, but if you’re allergic to shellfish or something you might want to check out tomorrow’s epic (ugh, sorry) Happy Hour at Waterbar’s sister restaurant next door: Epic Roasthouse. From 3 – 6:30 p.m. you’ll be able to take in waterfront
d.b.a. opens in Williamsburg, becomes less annoying

Everything’s Better with Beer: Beer Goggles at 92Y Tribeca
I probably don’t really need to tell you that beer makes things more fun. Parties…bowling…sitting/walking/standing… add a cold one and anything’s more of a party. The folks at 92Y Tribeca get this, too, and have launched a monthly Beer Goggles film series in which they screen a night of themed
Things to See and Places to Go in 2011
