Yeah, that would have been nice. *The city hall meeting is going to be tomorrow. It will involve wither the property should remain a theatre or not. I hope it will.
I had not seen a film here in a decade (the film was “Delta of Venus”) but I would have liked to have seen one last film here.
This was weird, but lastnight after getting back from class, I noticed that all of the front lights were on at the NuWilshire. This included the marque and the poster cases. Strange since all of the staff had to leave the premises by one that afternoon. I know no one from our staff was there. The newcoming crew sent from the owner must have turned them on for some reason. Weird…
Thanks to everyone who made the last show! It was great meeting you guys!
I would have recommended the second option.
I remember that place, I ate there a few times and drove past it many times.
No Shell station when I was there in the late eighties. We did have a fountain. The homeless guys used to try and steal my poor little goldfish in the fountain, to eat I guess. Not much of a meal.
Did that have a little fountain in front of it? And wasn’t it across from from like a Shell station too?
I used to manage the Penguin restaurant on the corner of Olympic and Lincoln in Santa Monica. The owners told the staff that the restaurant was being closed for two days due to plumbing problems. Guess what, employees, time to find a new waiter job.
In the olds days they would just close the theatre and put on the marquee “Closed for Remodeling”. And never reopen the house after a few months of just sitting there.
I can’t believe this has gotten so little coverage. I’m surprised the L.A. Weekly didn’t write this up. Terrible news. I live within walking distance and did not have a clue until now and now it’s too late…
Ave atque vale.
It was in the Santa Monica Daily Press a couple of weeks ago and before that a few months back. The theatre is now closed, they have already begun to renovate. They ripped out the seats today.
What news coverage has this gotten in the local Santa Monica newspapers? (When I lived there, the papers were the daily Evening Outlook and the weekly Independent-Journal; I think they have different names now.)
Will do!
Nush, see if you can get some detailed pictures of the booth!
Last day of work :(

Nush, when is the actual final day?
Okay, pictures sent.
I’m sending them to you guys right now. I already did send you guys some pictures.
Nushboy, if you aren’t going to send them at cinematour, you could set up a free flickr.com website and post the photos (or the best of them) there. Then, you could link your flickr gallery with a post here, and everybody could see them.
Man, Halloween sure was lame over at the theatre. My co-worker was really sad because that was her last day working at concession. I’m lucky enough to be working the last day of business…as concession. Great…lol
Done
