Multiplexes in Tokyo

[drainer@mpinet.net]

Thanks for the suggestions.

I forgot about Odaiba. I went to that theater once and it seemed rather
nice.

United in Toshimaen looks nice as well. A bit out of the way for me but the
site says it's 10 km from shinjuku so it's not so bad, is it near
higashi-nakano? Is it easily accessible by driving?
