50sSNIPES commented about WANTED -- c.1970s General Cinema "Coming Attractions" or "Feature Presentation" Trailer on Oct 8, 2020 at 4:57 pm

Filmack Became A National Origin On Films After The Company’s More Popular Primary Local Flavor Techniques Went On Its Last Legs During The 1970’s; The Local Flavor Became A Booming And More Extremely Popular Company For Local Flavor And Merchant Reels As Early As 1955, Although There Are Pre-Beta Versions As Early As 1953. Although General Cinema Had A Held Onto Filmack For Secondary. It Is Hard To Find Both Local And National Flavors Of Filmack Nowadays.

50sSNIPES commented about Woodford Theatre on Oct 4, 2020 at 12:37 am

Actually, The Woodford Theatre Opened On April 2, 1938 With Ronald Reagan In “Sergeant Murphy” Along With An “Our Gang”, Unknown Cartoon, And Comedy; Followed By George Brent In “Gold Is Where You Find It” A Day Later With A Cartoon And Other Selected Subjects. Prior To It, There Is No Theater In Eureka Besides The Jewel Theatre Which Closed By 1930.

The Theater You Mentioned About Back In 1957 When ABone Was In Eureka College Was Actually When The Woodford Theatre Was Either Closed For New Equipment Or Their Schedule Being Scrambled, But The Theater Continued To Operate At The Time. Yes It Closed In Early 1983 And The Building Was Sold Later That November.

During Its Last Years In Operation, The Theater Changed Its Name To “Imperial Cinemas” And Closed Its Doors In August 1992.

And No, It Was Not Replaced By The Merchant Walk 10. The Nearby AMC Merchant Walk 10 Opened On June 5th, 1987 And The Imperial Mall Cinema Twin Was Still In Operation At The Time.

FOUND IT: I Just Found Some Articles Prior To The Utopia Theatre. The Theater Started Constructing On January 14, 1925. According To Other Articles Later On, The Utopia Theatre Began Life As The “New Theatre”. The New Theatre Name Was Kept Throughout The Summer And Fall Of 1925 Before Changing Its Name To The Utopia Theatre In December 1925. The Construction Article Reads That It Will Take Months And Says That The Theater Will Open On June 1st, 1925 After Construction.

I Almost Laughed At One Attraction While Looking For Random Looney Tunes Cartoons Off Of The Newspapers Website. Unfortunately One Time, The Wisconsin Theatre On October 28, 1933 Completely Almost Refused To Screen “What’s Price Innocence” Along With Buddy’s First Looney Tune “Buddy’s Day Out” (Only Cartoon With Pre-Beta Characters And Only Appearances Of Cookie’s Baby Brother Elmer And Buddy’s Dog Happy) And A Pathe Newsreel. I Quote On This And Said: “Can The Children ONLY See The Cartoon AND The News Instead Of The Movie”?
