Upload Cinema: YouTube at the Theater

Us SubmarineChannelers went on a little outing last night to a fancy old-school theatre, where a host in patent leather shoes and a dickie-bow took to the stage to MC through the night of YouTube selects to a packed audience of discerning, middle-aged theatre-goers. They were totally loving the sensation of watching viral favourites like the grandma vs 2-girls-one-cup reaction video, the old Thriller in Manila prison favourite, and the incredible, hair-raising buffalo safety in numbers baby rescue S.O.S in the comfort of a crowded theatre. Are these fancy YouTube en masse screenings happening elsewhere or is it just Amsterdamage?
