The Flicks is closing within 5 months

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

The Flicks is closing within 5 months

Post by frizzie77 »

Ramon Stoppelenburg finally will throw in the towel. Was a long time coming, I'm afraid.

On the website (http://www.theflicks.asia/) it says: THE FLICKS CLOSES PERMANENTLY ON MAY 1, 2020.

Still, it's the end of an era, with him running it for - what, more than 10 years!
At one point I think The Flicks had 3 venues (incl. 1 at The Empire on St. 130).

So the personalized body rub down service for frustrated foreigners took off or not?
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Hey, i thought deep and meaningful Hollywood would be a sure fire winner.
Obviously not enough shallow-heads in Phnom Penh these days.
Go to a foreign land. Make it one of the most culturally interesting and diverse little cities in the world. Entertain yourself with wild nights out watching Brad Pitt movies.

The backpackers still flock around the non-stop reruns of Friends on the communal TV. Maybe The Flicks crowd will move over there now.

I wonder how many nudists work there, or if he was the only one?

Fake NGO with a home cinema illegally playing downloaded movies. The investors are going to be lining up.
