I used to hang out here alot when I was about 13, my friends parents owned it twards the end when it was called MTC Cinemas. I spent alot of time in the booth. Screens 1-5 used Strong Super Lume-X lamphouses with simplex projection heads and screen 6 used an old RCA, I cant remember the particular model. All theatres used Ultra Stereo. The booth was a real fun place to be as a teen. There was a room up there where my friend and I would play PlayStaion It was real sad twards its last few years when it really went down. They stopped doing pretty much any maintenance. The curtains no longer functioned to open and close over the screen. The cue sensors went to disrepair and no longer operated the lights. If no one in the booth turned the lights on at lamphouse shutoff, it would just be a dim room. I can still remember some of the movies I saw there and in which theatre. Beavis and Butthead on 1, BaseketBall on 2, Godzilla on 3, City of Angels on 4, Matilda on 5, and Titanic on 6.

Lots of memories!
