Doesn’t this still stand as retail, which is contrary to the demolished status above?

The website up top which used to be to save the Victory Theatre now is about saving the California Victory soccer team in San Francisco. Are hopes for this theatre dead?

This appears to be the same as the Gardner Cinemas 1 & 2 (#12672).

I believe this theatre is now closed as their phone number no longer works and I cannot find listings for them.

As I wrote above, it closed in September 2002. I was there the final weekend.

Just to throw in another factor – its is “Cummings” in the Film Daily Yearbook in both 1947 and 1955 (the two editions I own).

Anyone know what happened to the plans to renovate this? I can’t find anything on it since February of 2005.

First run single screen? Wow. In Connecticut that would be ZERO.

On the CinemaTour page I see Little Theatre, 506 Dekalb St. in Camden, SC. – looks like that is the one.

I don’t know why anyone would care about digital projection. I don’t think there are more than a handful of movies that come out digitally anyway. The projection when I saw No Country For Old Men here was clear and in focus with no dust or scratches on the print. I’m glad they do not have stadium seating – whoever invented that should be shot. I found the seats very comfortable even though they did not rock. I cannot stand seats with high backs, and these were the perfect size. I also parked for free nearly right across the street. My two complaints about the cinema were all the burned out bulbs in the marquee – that really irks me for some reason – and the horrible sound bleed-through from one auditorium to the next.

Maybe not in California, I guess, but it is pretty much everywhere else.

Roger Katz commented about Hartford Drive-In on Jan 8, 2008 at 7:08 am

The Pike wasn’t way down there. It was like a block from the Hartford DI. I think there’s a supermarket there now.

What company will it be run by?

Roger Katz commented about Apple Cinemas Simsbury Commons 8 on Jan 1, 2008 at 5:10 pm

I just noticed yesterday that it was no longer on the BCG website. I guess they must have sold it, but to whom I know not.

Roger Katz commented about AMC Classic Bloomfield 8 on Jan 1, 2008 at 5:10 pm

I haven’t heard any rumors about ti reopening. They want WAY too much money in rent.
