ShadowCat commented about Restaurant Row 9 Theatre on Jul 22, 2007 at 9:02 am

I was part of the first crew that worked at this theatre (hired as a projectionist) and I still have some fond memories of it. It was the arrival of the Wallace Restaurant Row 9 Theatres and later arrival of the Signature chain of theaters (since bought out by the Regal chain) that forced Consolodated Theaters to wake the F*ck up to the living nightmare that their no-care monopolizing was responsible for all their patrons to begin flocking to the new guys in Town! Because Wallace (and later Signature) came to Honolulu offering “fresh popped” in the lobby popcorn and “matinee” ticket prices, Consolodated sh!t themselves and soon began doing likewise, along with a busload of renovation work on their properties. “Competition” had proved yet again to be one of mankind’s greatest inventions!
