I also worked at Movie City, both in East Brunswick and later Woodbridge. I started in 1982 in EB as an usher, later promoted to projectionist. Due to several personal circumstances at the time (teenage drama mostly) I requested a move to Woodbridge where I worked till resigning (a now famous incident still discussed by a group of us) in the summer of 1985.

Although the place sucked, the friendships formed there have lasted a lifetime. I’m even more fortunate than most, as having worked in both theatres, I have a group of friends from each.

I also worked at Movie City, both in East Brunswick and later Woodbridge. I think I know who all of you are. I started in 1982 as an usher, later promoted to projectionist.

I agree with Lategirl and Goodfella (who referred me to this site last night)—although the place sucked, the friendships formed have lasted a lifetime. I’m even more fortunate than most, as having worked in both theatres, I have a group of friends from each.
