Picture this: at General Cinema's Premium theater in suburban Chicago, the $15 luxury cinematic experience starts with valet parking. After the concierge escorts you to a leather recliner, a waiter is on hand to mix up a martini and serve "previews" like shrimp cocktail and "feature presentations" (get it?) like prime rib. "It's like watching a movie with all the comforts of home but better service," says Mark Kanter, a regular at the luxury venue...
...Chappaqua, N.Y., the first thing I did was hop in my car and do a drive-by. How can I deny it? Half the village was there. With the stroke of a pen (and imminent transfer of $1.7 million), the First Couple have managed to turn a quiet suburban cul-de-sac into the surest spot in town to be seen...

There is a lovely golf and tennis club with a spacious veranda meant to re-create the look of a Louisiana plantation. But denizens were somewhat unnerved last year to learn that five of the leading gangsta rappers in the world had moved in: Master P, C-Murder, Silkk the Shocker, Mystikal and Snoop Dogg...
