The correct address is 217 N. Main Street USA.

209 was a car dealership, pool hall, and other businesses. This photo - https://www.marceline.us/map-of-marceline-history/ - shows the location of the theatre at 217.

FYI – the link above (Related Websites – The Final Curtain For The Cinedome) is broken, but here’s an updated link to the same article – https://www.in70mm.com/newsletter/2000/62/cinedom/index.htm

I use to live in Brentwood (and when to LUHS) and remember when they opened back up. I was so disappointed that they destroyed the old theater by making it 2 screens.

I’d LOVE to see old photos of this theater from the 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s – anytime before the 80s/90s… Anyone? :)

…and yes, the building was demolished and is now an LA Fitness. :(

I worked at this theater – it was my first “real” job after high school. I started as concession, then did usher, box office and finally projectionist.

I used to love cleaning up the booths and finding 10+ year old trailers, posters and other stuff.

Some of the managers I had were Kathy Dominguez, Bill Fair and Don Lane – all great people.

Wonderful memories of this ‘tacky’ little movie theater. It was a tight-knit group of employees. Lots of fun.

Was just watching “The Incredible Hulk”, and during the closing credits they show what appears to be the marquee of the Amsterdam Theater. (photo: http://bit.ly/HjaOvS)

From “The Incredible Hulk” – S01E07 – 0.49.27 (Netflix: http://bit.ly/Hh3vd4)

There is a “Liberty” sign on the right, a “Modell’s” (sporting goods?) on the left, and a “Roxy Burlesk” sign on the right.
