davidcoppock commented about Palais Theatre on Aug 22, 2016 at 1:17 am

I think the Palais Theatre is not far from Luna Park(an amusement park, only one of the two remaing Luna Park’s in Australia, the other is in Sydney) opened in 1912(?). I the Australian tv show Rockwiz may filmed one or two specials inside the Palais Theatre?

The original cinema building is still there as a restaurant(originally called Hogs Breath(since closed)), now called Bollywood Restobar(Indian(India) food). The back part of the original cinema building, which may have been built around the first Metro Drive-in bio box( and snack bar?) may have been absorbed into the current cinema building or the restaurant? The original cinema building is between the current cinema building and the right hand entrance(old Metro Drive-in entrance).

davidcoppock commented about Midland Military Markets Drive-In on Aug 5, 2016 at 1:30 am

Correction – The Midland Military Markets closed after the fire, the drive-in had already closed(after about 2 or 3 years after the opening?). The Midland Military Markets were already there before the drive-in opened opened just as a marketplace opening in 1995 on the former site of the Western Command Headquarters of the RAEME(Royal Australian Electrical and Mechanical Engineeers) and Army Stores and Vehicle Depot. The movies screened at the drive-in were shown on the side of the market buildings or a screen put on the side of the buildings.

I think the Star Cinema only lasted a few years(?), before going back to being part of the New Oxford Theatre. I think the longest film run there(and possibly in Western Australia or even Australia?) was “The Gods must be crazy, which for over 2 years(possibly even over 3 years?) which saved the theatre in the 1980’s.
