jwmovies commented about Paramount Theatre on Dec 23, 2022 at 11:34 am

Given the exterior marquee, the interior color scheme, the movie playing in the photo above and owned by Plitt: THIS is the sister theater to Century Plaza Los Angeles, Northpoint San Francisco and Plaza Daly City in California! I bet it was dark and cavernous lots of gold and purple. Played Fofire and The Last Temptation of Christ towards the end! They all played these films. 🤭🤭

Look at the picture in 1983 (Flashdance).

IT WAS A TRIPLEX BEFORE 1991! The Regal sas not playing triple fatures at that time. Back in Blaxploitation days maybe…😛

jwmovies commented about Fontana 6 Theatres on Nov 14, 2022 at 11:11 am

Yep. Originally Mann Festival! The all wood exterior gives it away…See Regency in San Rafael, Festival Century in Larkspur and the recently closed for good Crow Canyon in San Ramon. In fact this theater can be the identical fwin of the missed Regency 6 in Fresno! 😍😍😍

jwmovies commented about Village Theatre on Nov 10, 2022 at 9:11 am

As had been said earlier, looks like Landmark Village & Bruin in Westwood Los Angeles but also looks like the Fox in Watsonville and the Cathay Circle in Hollywood Los Angeles and the Bellmont Arts i Belmont CA and the Alex in Glendale CAalso the Granada in Morgan Hill! I’m sensing a Mission theme here…😍😍😍

jwmovies commented about Ritz San Jose on Nov 5, 2022 at 8:45 am

Put THIS one down as closed but definitely not demolished! The marquee still stands as well as the stage where the screen was at South 1st and San Salvador. Drinks are a little pricey but it for the seniors at SJSU! Huge DJ booth a plus! From porn to rock bands. Only in San José! 🤩🤩😍😍

jwmovies commented about South Bay Six Drive-In on Oct 28, 2022 at 9:21 pm

FROM THE FREEWAY! That’s a hint!

This address is not only correct, it is very incorect! It points to a neighborhod that has been there BEFORE the drive in snd still exists!

THE correct address for this theatre was 20100 S Figueroa St, Carson, CA 90745. It is the western entrance next to the freeway.

Side note: Private Benjamin with the glorious Goldie and the magnificent Eileen opened in October 1980 NOT 1981 as that ad is from Dec 1980 (Popeye opened Christmas ‘80)! Opening date is also wrong… Please update! 😍😍😍
