It's Friday already and time for my weekly update on new movies in Iowa City and Coralville. I'll start with the new releases for March 5 and include a couple of other ideas on things to do in Iowa City this weekend.
You can check the schedule for movies at the Coral Ridge Mall Movie Theatre in Coralville and the Sycamore Mall Cinema in Iowa City...
Exciting weekend for movie-goers this weekend with Tim Burton and Johnny Depp sure to make box office with Alice In Wonderland. Johnny Depp is the Mad Hatter and I'm sure he'll be sensational! The other new release this week is Brooklyn's Finest also starring some pretty top notch actors, including two of my favorites, Richard Gere and Ethan Hawke. It's a tension filled drama revolving around three police officers in the NYPD. Hardly worthy competition for Alice! So sorry guys, maybe next time...
When it comes to live entertainment you can't beat The Mill - as readers of the Press Citizen will tell you. Tonight, members of the renowned Writers Workshop will be picking up their guitars and singing rather than reading their work - Very Dylanesque... On Saturday Dave Zollo & the Body Electric will be playing their brand of blues and rock music.
If you like your country music with dance then check out the Wildwood Smokehouse & Saloon. Great music and great food and free wi-fi...They often have specials too like all you can eat ribs on Wednesdays...They're on Facebook and do a better job than anyone else I've seen using that media to give info on specials and upcoming events.
I'm going to round it up this week again with The Iowa City Yacht Club. They hit my radar recently as it seems they find the bands with the most original names to play there... Hen House Prowlers & Porch Builder will be playing there tonight. (Definitely up there for original names.:-) The fun continues on Saturday with Dennis McMurrin & The Demolition Band.
For more ideas on things to do in Iowa City this weekend I've written a couple of posts pulling things together making it easier for you to find theaters and live entertainment venues in Iowa City.

Denise,
As usual you keep your public informed of all fun things in life. Have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Linda ~ It seems your psychic. I was thinking about you today and the fact that I need to stop by your blog again. I've been busy lately and not commenting quite as regularly as I should.
Yes, I like consistency, so I make sure I keep my readers informed of the fun stuff just as regularly as the market stats.
You have a great weekend too!
Denise
Thanks for the info!
You're welcome Megan. If you're going to see Alice in Wonderland be sure to allow plenty of time - there are going to be long queues!
Have a great weekend.
Denise
