I’m the one who submitted this theater info to this site, btw.
Now we need some pictures of this theater, or what used to be.
And I also believe I saw the Little Rascals movie at this theater.
Did this theatre open as a Dollar Cinema or was it ever first run?
Not sure. I’d be surprised if it actually was a first run theater at some point.
I saw numerous films here as a kid we would walk with my mom and spend time across the street at Kids R Us and Toys R Us.. super fond times… from what I can remember I saw Hocus Pocus, Beauty and The Beast, The Bodyguard, Bad Boys, Home Alone, Jurassic Park over 20xs when it played for over a year … My Girl, Robin Hood, Selena, Thelma and Louise, The Rocketeer, Bethoveen, Sister Act 2… they even knew me by name .. I loved it it was a simple three screen no frills but fun.
This was opened by Transcontinental Theatres. Grand opening ad posted.
I think it became a dollar cinema in the early 80s. I remember my Dad took me to see Blake Edwards' S.O.B. here when I was a kid (because they put “PG” on the marquee instead of “R”).
Opened on 10th June 1977 with on.screen 1 with “Rocky”, screen 2 with “King Kong(1970’s version?)” and screen 3 with “Network”.
@Davidcoppock: Most likely.
