Come get dazzled by the silver screen at the ORPHEUM THEATER!
So after updating all my freaking mods for the new Horse Ranch update (which I couldn't care less about, tbh... the only good thing that came with it for me was— you guessed it!— painted ceilings), here I am once again with a brand new building for the Vintage Save File I'm working on: let me take you on a tour through the stunning Orpheum Theater!
I OBVIOUSLY couldn't do a Vintage Save File set in Del Sol Valley without including a proper theater where your 1920s, '30s & '40s sims could go watch Golden Age films, get mesmerized by their favorite movie stars' glamour and perhaps even take their dates and get lucky while sitting in the back seats?
I have to say just building the front— mainly the marquee, which I did manually— took me about a solid 3 hours, so apologies if the rooms I decorated last seem a bit uncluttered... I was simply ready to move on to the next build by then lol
Below you can see the tickets window (somehow I always seem to find a way to implement @surely-sims's CC into my builds, I just can't help myself... it works too good around my aesthetic!)
And the main hall, in which you'll find @ravasheencc's Film Reaper Movie Theater posters that will allow your sims to watch actual movies through a rabbit hole. I don't know if you noticed, but I also finally found the courage to download and play around a little with @twistedmexi's TOOL mod (the lights frames are rotated) after getting inspired by some of the content by @come-hell-or-high-water. The way he/she (?) pays attention to the tiniest details in his/her screenshots made me want to take mine a step further, so thank you @come-hell-or-high-water!
There's only one movie room, but it has two stories and a beautiful balcony on the second floor you can access to if you go upstairs, through the main hall:
Upstairs is also where the toilets are located (look at those gorgeous red velvet carpeted ceilings... 9 freaking years I've waited to be able to do that, EA!):
And, of course, it wouldn't be a cinema without a projection room, would it?:
Next to the theater you'll find a kinda shabby parking lot, in which Dito Dalton (see my previous post) takes care of some of his businesses every now and then, if you know what I mean:
And last but not least, if you go through the back you'll find a very small yet cozy home that belongs to the household who owns the Orpheum Theater:
Who are the members of this household, you may ask? Ah, you little inquisitive mind! I'm afraid you'll have to wait for my next post to find out... but let me tell ya, they have a great background story and will be a great townie addition to this save file :)
Anyway, that's it for today! Hope you guys like this new building and we shall see where this crazy project that's taking most of my spare time lately takes me next lol
who doesn’t love a good movie? if you are a cinephile or if you just want a place to hangout, it’s time top pop in the Go-Go Cinema. the old-timey cinema right by the corner of Starlight Boulevard is a place to behold, even though the charm of the Del Sol Valley Golden Age is not that present anymore.
now, all that’s left to say is: how do you like your popcorn?

The fourth and final part of the Willow Creek make overs is a speakeasy bar. It is large and spreads over two floors. there is a bar area, enough tables and bar tables, a stage for a jazz or blues band, a gallery and lots of comfortable armchairs. The outdoor area also invites you to linger in the summer. So that everything colorwiseh fits together I have created a small Recolor set which complements my existing Recolors. Next to the bar is a small tailor shop with a photo studio. Nearby there is an old movie theater with two theaters. In the middle of the tree-lined square there is a modern cafe.
Thanks to all creators who made this house possible with their CC, like @animefemme69, @baufive, @billss4cc, @chicklet, @k-hippie, @kkbsmm, @LadyMoriel, @meinkatz, @msteaqueen, @radioactivedotcom and @thetrashisoutcc and many many more.
Я піду в далекі гори, на широкі полонини
І попрошу вітру зворів, аби він не спав до днини
Щоб летів на вільних крилах на кичери і діброви
І дізнавсь, де моя мила - карі очі, чорні брови
Мила моя, люба моя, світе ясен цвіт
Я несу в очах для тебе весь блакитний світ
Я несу любов-зажуру, мрію молоду
І сади цвітуть для мене, як до тебе йду
Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors (1964)
The masterpiece of Ukrainian cinema was stolen by the russians and presented at the 'russian film festival' in France as part of the russian heritage.
- a novel written by the Ukrainian author
- tells a love story of the oldest ethnographic group of Ukrainians - the Hutsuls
- reflects ancient Ukrainian customs and folklore
- filmed by an Armenian convicted by the soviet union for Ukrainian nationalism
Yeah, that's indeed some 'russian' movie right here. Hey Europe. You're SO concerned about cultural appropriation. Why then do you close your eyes to this vandalism and make excuses?
Continue to cut Ukrainians out of Oscars and your cultural life. But then don't be surprised by russian tanks under your windows. Culture is as much a stepping stone to expansion as military power. It's a pity that in 30 years the world still haven't realized this.
The combination of RoLo fanfics and Classic Souls led to this. I just like the idea of my ships slowly dancing to slow music and just being all lovey-dovey. I still plan on recreating a scene from my favorite Rom Coms, so please be patient; same to ZelGan.
Sorry for the awkward cuts as well, I’m still new to this type of video editing
