Jerry Lewis Operated The Twin For Only A Year Starting With Its Grand Opening On June 16, 1972 (With A Reissue Of Walt Disney’s “Pinocchio” At Screen 1 And “The Last Picture Show” At Screen 2. Prior To Its Opening A Day Earlier, A Free Children’s Matinee Of The Little Ark Open House With Free Cokes Was Taken Place There) Until Taken Over By Showtime Theatres In May 1973, Renaming As The “Corsicana Twin Cinema”.
Opened With “Harum Scarum” And “The Great Spy Mission”. It Was Closed On August 22, 1985 With A Triple Feature: “Rambo”, “First Blood”, And “Missing In Action” As Its Last Films. It Was Demolished Less Than A Year Later In 1986.
One of the owners of the Suburbia was once arrested by an FBI agent, and would later plead not guilty over an obscenity film in July 1974. Throughout the rest of the 1970s is where the theater had a bunch of ups-and-downs on films and even projection, as more incidents were being taken place there.
Yes, It Was Burned On January 14, 1964 With 2 Injuries To 2 Firefighters From The HFD. A Twin Theater Would Later Be Built In The City And Would Open A Year Later As The Same Name To This Theater.
It Seems That The Page Didn’t Update The Opening Date, But The Closing Date Is Right Though. It Was Suppose To Say That It Opened As The “Florida Theatre” As A Twin On February 9, 1965, Changed Its Name To The “Florida Twin” In 1969, Tripled In 1984 As The “Florida Triple”, Became A Quad In 1988 As The “Florida 4”, Last Known As The “Florida Quad” Until Closed On March 21, 1996.
Yeah, I totally don’t know why Florida State Theatres have done that for others but, I’m sure it is a very popular name for that theater’s chain. Some had taken it, some didn’t. This Florida is one of them.
Also, this theater opened on February 9th, not the 10th.
Yes, the Florida Theatre in Hollywood burned down on January 14, 1964 because of that fire that injured 2 firefighters, but I’m not talking about the Florida Theatre there. I’m talking about the Florida Theatre on 30 Las Olas Boulevard in downtown Fort Lauderdale which closed between late 1966 and early 1967. This Florida and Fort Lauderdale’s Florida got me confusing because this twin was temporarily named the “Florida Theatre” since its beginning despite on this being a twin as its name for the first 4 years. I even got to look at the Fort Lauderdale News to find its match, but the name severely catches me on.
Yes, it opened as a twin, but the name got super confusing for some people. It’s not the Florida, it’s other theaters across the US and others. The theater opened with a world premiere of “Strange Bedfellows” on both screens.
The Theater Actually First Opened As The Florida Theatre, Even Though It Didn’t Mean It Is A Twin, On February 10, 1965. It Was Renamed The Florida Twin In 1969. This Got Me Big Time Because It Has Nothing To Do With The Florida Theatre In Fort Lauderdale That Closed In Late 1966 Or Early 1967. The Theater Was Tripled In 1984 After Ending Its Twin Run. Wometco Took Over The Theater After Operating As A Plitt Theater For A While. A Fourth Screen Would Later Be Added During The Decade As The “Florida 4”. The Theater Was Last Known As The “Florida Quad” Before Closing In 1996.
Yes, this is formerly known as the Hi-Land. This 200-car capacity theater began construction in August of 1950 and finished it that September. The theater was owned by H. Cecil Aruff of Morristown, Tennessee. I cannot find the grand opening advertisement, but it opened its gates during the first week of October 1950. The first attraction, film, and subjects were unidentified, but the second attraction is Abbott and Costello in “The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap” with no selected short subjects, that’s the earliest attraction I found so far just right after its grand opening.
It was renamed the Jolly Roger in 1962, and I do believe that they played some of those films that fits, but I don’t think I could be joking just because of that unusual name.
Owned By Mr. Ed Redmond, The Apache Opera House Opened Its Doors On February 26, 1903 With A Play Presentation Of “Davy Crockett”. It Was Last Known As The Opera House Theatre, Before Closing In 1958.
