So the theatre fails to get Inception but they get Standing Ovation (basically the Mormon High School Musical) at the Chinese 6. How did they sink that low?
The Losers was terrible. The whole film served as a preview of why Chris Evans should not be playing Captain America.
Also, I don’t understand why more films weren’t scheduled on May 28th. Both titles looked weak to begin with so why not put two or three more movies in the mix?
And some titles that I noticed in the photos provided by Cinemark:
The Shining
A View To A Kill
Pale Rider
Scarface
Star Wars
Return Of The Jedi
Hamlet (1990)
The Fly
All The Right Moves
Return Of The Living Dead
All Of Me
Back To The Beach
Fletch
The Back-Up Plan
Date Night
Dreamkiller
Greenberg
Hot Tub Time Machine
How To Train Your Dragon (in REAL-D)
Just Wright
Kick-Ass
Kites (on two screens, one screen playing the recut version known as Kites: The Remix)
La Mission
Mother and Child
The Runaways
and a pair of documentaries, A Nightmare In Las Cruces and Blood Into Wine
Last movies shown: The Last Exorcism and Predators.
I’ve read that the theatre has been getting a little run down lately. Some people have even spotted rodents.
Opening at 12:01 am tonight with The Last Exorcism and Takers.
The theatre is now owned by Showplex Cinemas.
I was thinking that the former space became Vintage Stock. The one at the Northpark Mall is huge!
Don’t let the bedbugs bite.
This theatre had the D-Box motion process in one auditorium but it looks like they have removed those seats.
It does!
This theatre had the New York premiere of Paranormal Activity (before the film before popular).
The thief was caught the next morning and the print was returned to the theatre.

That so-called “junky car” was actually considered one of the most innovative for its time.
I first saw this movie when McDonald’s sold copies of it in the mid 1990’s. I’ve probably seen it at least 20 times since then.
I’m guessing that an independent picks this theatre up.
This is on my birthday! Too bad I’m over 1,500 miles away.
Splice should have been a much bigger hit than it was.
Richard Dreyfuss will be spoofing his Matt Hooper character in the forthcoming Piranha 3-D.
I didn’t see this movie until 2002, when I rented it on DVD from a now-closed Blockbuster in Springfield, Missouri. Great movie.
As for Springfield, they didn’t run the film until July 25th, when the Century 21 began a nine week run on it.

I would have gone with Leon (then known as The Professional) for Thanksgiving 1994.
I was at Union Station last month. A good third, maybe half of the place was vacant.
Splice starts tomorrow at the main theatre.

It was three towards the end. Check the St. Louis Post-Dispatch archives (about 1999) if you don’t believe me.
Is it true that this theatre isn’t doing well outside of premieres?
