The Exton Cinema shares the same design as the Concord Mall Cinema, Wilmington, DE, and the York Cinema, York, PA, being as all 3 theatres were opened by Budco Quality Theatres.
Launched with “The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes” on February 18, 1970
This theatre was definitely opened past 1995. I saw Titanic, Mulan and What Dreams May Come there in 98.
It was knocked down, now a K-mart stands in it’s place. 95 was it’s last year. Check out the photo section to see all the cool movies that played here…
I remember this theater well, reminds me of the days before the big cineplex theaters moved into Chester County. As a ‘Kid of the 90s’ the last movies I remember seeing here before it closed were Disney’s Aladdin (1992) and The Mighty Ducks (1992). I believe my mother actually took me to see Lethal Weapon 3 (1992) in this theater too.
The Exton Cinema was NOT a Jerry Lewis theater – the Marchwood Theatre up the road about two miles was. Then when JL went bust, it turned to X-Rated stuff.
My younger brother worked at the Exton Cinema from opening day for about three years, and I got to see a lot of stuff for free. I remember seeing Steve McQueen’s LE MANS there, and a couple of westerns from back then, and a bunch of other stuff. Basically, if it came out between 1970 and 1974 and would have interested a 17-21 year old, I saw it… :)
