Okay, Robin and Tlsloews and going to check them out. Wouldn’t be easier just put them on the theatre sites.Seems like a lot of extra work,but i am going to check them.
If you had those old carbon arcs in theatres with cue marks and change overs there would much fewer complaints about movies today when a trained and usually a union man is in the booth,and not some 17 year old kid trying to figure out how to score with"SUSIE" the candy girl. Right on Norelco.
I guess you all played it. I missed “THE EXORCIST” crowds,but I know “JAWS” more than made up for it. I have two of the one-sheets that were at the Imperial.I thought about giving them one since what they have in Lounge is a reprint.
My brother who is in the Health club business said he visited a location i think in LOUISVILLE.KY. that was a like a six plex that was also a spa/Health club. So watch a movie and work out.Only in the states i guess,Orpheum.
you get a chance go to my homepage{is that what they call it}There is a post about “JAWS” I commented about it and was looking for the ad with Barkley and how our City Manager had figured out to the foot how many times he played it from the booth. If i find the ad i will include it in the article. Haven’t heard from Robin. She was suppose to get some of TLSLOEWS Drive-ins on from Nashville,Oh well.
I have tried to make good comments on most of my posts.TLSLOEWS wrote something about CINEMATOURS,or something,is that like CT? you know i have no idea how to find it. I Like CT alot.
I didn’t say this in the above post, but somehow he saved the tail from “SUMMER OF 42” and it has the PG rating.Boy, wait til he sees the one-sheet. I bet they didn’t trim much of anything,standards change, take a look at “MIDNIGHT COWBOY” PG-13 today easy and i am a conservative guy as you know. Yep, there are two Downtown theatres in NORTH AUGUSTA,S.C., across the river and two what i think might be BLACK drive-ins.I really need Bill and Ray Hutto to help me because they are much older.I wish i would have done my theatres like you one big story and not “HAIRED BRAINED” like one CT member wrote, I guess they do go all over the place, but heck that’s me.
After all has been said. I really don’t care if i ever see “JAWS” again. Summer of 75 will never be forgotten for those of us lucky enough to work BRUCE THE SHARK.
Boy, Could i write a book on"JAWS" I was employeed about seven miles up the road at NATIONAL HILLS and according to our city Manager he thought “JAWS” who be a joke. It was no joke. Most of us ushers were working “BENJI” at National Hills and then driving down to the IMPERIAL in downtown Augusta to help handle the thousands that showed, Our city manager had one concession girl on duty and one Boxoffice girl and the doorman.And get this he goes on vacation that week.We somehow manage to pull it off with a couple of assistants And the manager from NATIONAL HILLS. You gotta love the business.
John,could you have the city misspelled? I have found a Monticello, Iowa with a MONTE THEATRE that was owned by IOWA UNITED THEATRES 1123 High Street.Des Monies.This is from a 1956 Motion Picture Almanac.
I hope this helps you if the city was just misspelled.
Nick, what is the next one.Guess what ALL BY MYSELF i am working up a couple of new theatres for CT,waiting on Bill to send back a letter about a few questions on the theatres i am working up.I tried to call him,but i guess he doesn’t have a phone anymore.
You know HE swears “SUMMER OF 42” was rated PG. I took a picture of the one sheet that is in my Theatre poster display frame and MAILED IT TO HIM. It was released as an R-Rated film. RIGHT!!!!!! Why am I asking you it is one the ONE-SHEET. I hate to be told i am wrong when I know I am right.If you have a newspaper ad of"SUMMER of 42" PLEZ mail it to him. Oh well, better not.

Nick has added another Tampa Theatre,Good stuff.
Tlsloews,wouldn’t you want to manage a 15 screen cinema?It is aLOEWS theatre.
Great pictures of the Columbus.

Not much of a picture on the night view.
Good old FRED WILLIAMSON movie is playing “HAMMER”.Couldn’t make out the second hit.
TLSLOEWS, you have a nose for LOEWS.LOL.
Is that “RED DAWN” on the tiny marquee?
I see Robin is back at National Hills.

Robin, I dedicate this song to you “SCHOOL’S OUT” Alice Cooper Our kind of music.
You gotta be kidding Tim. I think that might just top mine. At least both of mine were R- rated.

thanks, CWalczak.
Meyer’s Films were tame has you stated. He did do a big budget for him,wasn’t it “BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS” early 70’s and was a X-rated movie.
