I wanted to know what theaters there are in the Seoul area and preferrably near a subway/metro. Also, what movies are there out there to see and let me know what comedy, drama, and action movies are showing. I know about the Rocky movie and some World War II movie about Iwo Jima.

BTW- If you are going to watch Babel in a foreign country, please be aware that half of that movie is subtitled. I guess it was worth 7000 won to see Brad Pitt. I went not even knowing what the movie was about, and left the same way!

The ones at COEX can be nice, but they're usually way too crowded. The newish ones at Yongsan's I-Park are really nice - stadium seating - and it's usually not too difficult to get tickets.

It seems there is no shortage of decent movie theaters these days, which was sadly not the case a few years ago when finding a nice place to watch a movie was really newsworthy.

In any case, I thought I'd mention that I really liked Daehan Cinema in Chungmuro. Very big, stadium-style seating, and, if anything, a bit *too* loud. I watched Spiderman 2 there and nearly vibrated out of my seat at times.
