Bob, I sent a letter to Bill Barkley,the projectionist that has helped me on all the Aiken S.C.Theatres and Drive-ins.He hasn’t sent back any reply so I wii try again he’s pushing 80 so maybe he is ill. I will asked about the name.He even has a picture of the Marrh with picket lines up.He was a union man.
No,no i just saw the movie mentioned and I remember us playing at a General Cinema that i was the assistant manager at. A lot of these movie titles you forget and then you see them pop up on CT.
Charlie is an ex_– Projectionist from Tampa,Great friend of Nick DiMaggio and they were exploring and i think Charlie fell about knee high in the rumble on the ground.Nick, took some great shots. Those two went over most of the state of Flordia and shot VHS of all the closed Drive-ins.It is a great Video to see.Nick,I know you don’t like the Attention,but that video you two made was great,I have to get mine transferred to DVD.
Thanks Joe,for the info.I wouldn’t expect anyone from that area to comment.I can’t get the folks that have worked on the Columbia theatre in Harlem,Ga.to take interest in Cinema Treasures,they raised money to put a new marquee on the Columbia theatre,cleaned it out,but when I told them about this wonderful Cinema Treasures they just clammed up.Country folks I guess.
Thanks Cwalczak,I am sure the Regal here is using some type of Imax.I guess i have seen it at Disney World or Universal Studios while visiting those parks and probably did not realize it.
Yeah, but i think what we have here is an IMAX rip off.We don’t have no seven story screen like C Walczak was writing about.Atlanta would have it,but not here.
Way to go JJD, you would have made great theatre manager,because like this old theatre dawg; i was always concerned about what was on the screen and how to make moviegoing great for our paying customers who in the 70’s thought 3.00 a seat was too high.
Nick, forget it.Doggone it,I had those ads in my hands just a couple of days ago and thought these need to be on CT not in my theatre album.I took them out and i think they got tossed in my stack of movie ads which pile up to the size of the Atlanta phonebook.That many.When i come across them i will get them down to you in Fla.I should have taken the time to put them in a place where i could find them.
I think the “SCARS OF DRACULA” had Christopher Lee in it.Maybe Peter Cushing? Since we are never on at the same time i submitted the PAL THEATRE in Fairfax,S.C. it is on CT now.Check it out i left you a post and i dropped a letter in the mail to the Nobles.
Larry 2.I sorta thought that way too or these guys are more hardcore theatre employee than I ever was.Heck, I sorta enjoy keeping up with the Adventures at AMC.Beats CNN.
“Dodgeball” was playing with “Spiderman”.I found the pictures i took and really the front of the theatre didn’t look that bad.I have seen worse.Admission was 3.00,not 2.50 but still a deal for first run.The inside was tacky .Checkerboard Square tiles Black and white in the ceiling and the same for the floor.
Nick Di, You have been to this theatre and took pictures of the inside and wasn’t this the old theatre Charlie fell thru the floor.I know if you can find the pictures others sure would enjoy seeing them.
Basically,I am not into the new wave of Moviegoing.But Regal refitted the Regal 20 here in Augusta and some moviegoers said it wasn’t real IMAX even though they advertise IMAX.I guess one can tell?

Off topic,I guess.I think there is a MASH TV episode where HawKeye and BJ try to get a copy of “THE MOON IS BLUE”.
Thanks Cwalczak.

Boy,those were the days.
I have a nice book on Drive-in Theatres from everywhere and they show this set up.
Any extra help would be great,guys.
Thanks CT for getting the name.I heard Dixie theatre but wasn’t 100% sure and didn’t want to get it wrong.

Tell Nick, to dig them up!

Thanks CWalczak and JohnJ.Fink. Guess one day i will have flop down 12 bucks to see the IMAX movie.
I have the pictures in a photo album if you can’t locate yours and want to put them on,let me know,

Thanks Christopher for an interesting historical background.
