Thanks for the link Dilberry! It is indeed in Hollywood, but what a fun side trip this would make! The El Capitan Theater is where they had staged the Lion King for a few years. Lately it has been showing Disney movies.
Enjoy life and great vacations!

Lion King was actually at the Pantages Theater (we saw it twice while it was there). Pantages is also on Hollywood Blvd, but it's about 4 or so blocks east of the El Capitan.
El Capitan theater has always shown Disney movies, since Disney bought it. We like to see movies here because they always do something special that relates to the movie that is showing.
We were there on Saturday and saw "Sky High" (cute movie) and went to the Soda Fountain afterward. It was fun. We didn't order the Mickey sundae, but we saw several being made, since we sat at the counter.
They come in a big Sorcerer Mickey hat with I think about 10 scoops of ice cream, your choice of 3 toppings, 1/2 a can of whip cream & cherries (for $24.95). It's not even close to being as big as the Kitchen Sink sundae, and has alot less in it. The Kitchen sink has cake, brownie, all the flavors of ice cream, all the toppings & a whole can of whip cream.
It was cute, but for the same price as the Kitchen sink, I'd rather have the Kitchen Sink.
You can also get the Kitchen Sink at PCH Grill at Paradise Pier hotel in
Disneyland.
They did have the old fashion sodas though and we got 1 chocolate & 1 vanilla/cherry.
It is worth a stop if your in the area.
