In 2017, the Hollywood Theatre launched a Kickstarter campaign to save the legendary Portland video store Movie Madness. #SaveMovieMadness went viral, raising over $436,000 from 4,608 donors. Thanks to our community's incredible generosity, Movie Madness - with its archive of over 80,000 titles and an exceptional collection of movie memorabilia - will live on.

The campaign's remarkable success allowed us to expand our scope and dream big. So we set out to build a community screening room to help Movie Madness operate sustainably far into the future. The screening room (now known as the Movie Madness Miniplex) features state-of-the-art laser projection and Dolby Atmos sound, and is home to Movie Madness University, our film appreciation program, as well as other special events and community partnerships.
