I guess I'm biased as someone who has gotten to screen movies and hang art here, but Flicker has EVERYTHING. Movie screenings (free!) from Soviet propaganda to BBC ghost stories to Italian sleaze to Japanese truckers; countless metal and hardcore shows; the most fun variety of local art (my favorite art show is the annual Halloween one!). They also have downtown's best public bathroom.
It's my favorite bar ever. Divey and eclectic atmosphere with smarmy yet sweet bartenders. There's movies projected (with complimentary popcorn) or live music played more often than not, and local art is always on display. What more could I ask for? They stay open later than most bars. It's not really a selling point. Be careful going to any bar after 12 am).
Parking: You would be very lucky to get a spot in front of the bar but there is parking across the street but kind of small.
