Adult Film policy,wish you could go into more details,I worked for ABC THEATRES,{Southeast] and we always tried to stay clear of adult movies,I guess you mean X rated.that sure doesn’t sound like the ABC THEATRES i worked for until Plitt took over.

Mike Rogers commented about Savoy News-Luxe Theatre on Mar 22, 2011 at 1:04 am

Thanks sal, a lot of theatres here in the Southeast{USA}tended to sell Air Condition as much as the Movie playing.If you look at old ads from the 40’s to 50’s they let you know its “COOL INSIDE”.

Mike Rogers commented about Miller Theatre on Mar 22, 2011 at 12:24 am

I don’t know.Everyone in the Arts would love to have the Miller going,but The Imperial is across the street.It is a tad smaller about 800 seats.we had more when it played movies.A new roof was put on the Miller.FRIENDS OF THE MILLER,which is on CT could probably answer alot of Questions.At least Augusta saved the MODJESKA,IMPERIAL and MILLER Theatres.

You know movie534,all the Union projectionists i worked with at ABC/PLITT and GCC only two guys actually enjoyed movies that ran the Booth,the other guys were always working on something on the make table or reading.I was an Assistant Mgr,and not an operator.

From what I saw at Regal 20 I visited,this IMAX I saw did not impress me.looks like the size movie screens use to be and nothing more.

Mike Rogers commented about Plantation Cross Roads on Mar 20, 2011 at 9:32 pm

Enjoyed the story on “10”.We had to watch teenage boys slipping in on it in the twin I worked,which was pretty easy since the screens were apart.I don’t really remember that much nudity if any in the movie.Thanks Irv.I did sneak into to see “THE GROOVE TUBE” when i was underage,so i know the thrill.

She was a manager for Plitt theatres,she put alot of the pictures on for me. I was fired about the time she was hired at National Hills so she had heard of Me.Go to her Homepage she worked a few theatres in Atlanta.Her family were theatre people so she grew up in it.
