This opened on May 18th, 1984. Grand opening ad posted.
MSC77 – You are absolutely correct. AIT, by the way, was an upstart chain started by John Ellison, a former Mann Theatres DM. AIT built this theatre and it was considered a state-of-the-art, top-quality facility at the time. Unfortunately for AIT, many other new screens also opened in North County then (including the UA8 in Escondido).
The original operator was American International Theatres (AIT). Edwards acquired it (and other area venues) in 1985.
“The Rocketeer” was presented at the Edwards Carousel in 35mm Dolby Stereo beginning on Friday June 21, 1991.
This theater has definitely been demolished. You can see it if you look at http://www.historicaerials.com and compare the 1989 aerial to the 2003/2005 aerial.
