Many people have asked where is the gorgeous Art Moderne cinema shown in “Inglorious Basterds”? In Paris? A cinema that could be visited? Here’s the answer.

ISLINGTON, LONDON, ENGLAND — The ABC aka Carlton Islington is featured in this new Pop video, Miss Monroe.

Not exactly something I saw coming, but Cinema Treasures showed up in a web comic, Multiplex.

RENO, NV — “The Captive City” - a 1952 crime drama took place in the fictional city of Kennington. The actual location of the shooting was Reno, Nevada. 

Towards the beginning of the film John Forsythe parks his car on a downtown street. While he is standing on the sidewalk, there is a prominent shot of Reno’s now demolished Majestic Theatre in the background.

The film will be shown on TCM cable channel Oct. 2, 2008. The film has also recently been shown on the MGMHD movie channel for those of you with Dish TV.

Once again, which historic theater is used for the recently made, pre-show request to TURN OFF YOUR CELL PHONES -presently running in most Regal cinemas?

I am referring to a clip comedian Steve Martin’s arrival at a typical old Fox Theatre with a “Scouracized” box office and Terrazzo outer lobby. It’s also an interesting way to plug the latest “Pink Panther” flick. I hope THIS one will be funny!

Is it the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA? 

Can anyone identify the closed theater that used to appear briefly in the opening credits montage for “Law and Order SVU?”

The Nuart Theatre was shown during Mondays’s episode of “The Big Bang Theory” on CBS. In this episode, two of the main characters go out to see a Planet of the Apes marathon at the Nuart, very simliar to what is happening right now over at the Ziegfeld Theatre.

The only catch is that the drinks have the AMC logo rather than the Landmark insignia on them. It’s a shame that the show’s creators changed the branding just to avoid lawsuits and such. 

FLINT, MI — The new film Semi-Pro includes scenes filmed at the Capitol Theatre, as initially reported last May. The scenes include one of the theater’s front facade indicating that the movie Mother, Jugs and Speed is showing and a scene involving Will Ferrell, playing Flint Tropics owner Jackie Moon, in a dumpster alongside the alley side of the theater talking to Woody Harrelson playing Monix, one of the players on his team. Scenes involving the theater showing a closed circuit telecast of the Mega Bowl did not make the final cut on the film, but it could appear in a future DVD release of the film.

More information can be found in the Flint Journal.

If you feel like five minutes plus of L.A.’s Orpheum Theatre; facade, lobby, auditorium and the glorious stage.

It’s pure nostalgia... so go to the movies NOW and see “Alvin & the Chipmunks.”

LOS ANGELES, CA — Seen it yet? The last big battle between good and evil takes place in downtown L.A. on Broadway...in the classic theatre district! The Orpheum, Rialto and several others will never be the same.
