This theater has been closed for about a year now as of Jan 09. It is currently a gym that I belong to. I saw movies here as a kid in high school 93 – 97. It wasn’t anything special and I think when the stadium style theaters starting opening this theater was forgotten. I remember it as a General Cinema before becoming a Trademark Cinema.
What is the Status of this theater?
May 25th, 1990 Grand opening ad for this theatre and the Altamonte 8 in the photo section. It was opened by General Cinema. It closed down in 2007.
The Lake Mary Centre Cinema 8, which had opened on May 25, 1990, was closed along with many other General Cinema Corp. locations on September 28, 2000 as the circuit was on its last legs. The chain’s reliance on aging multiplexes was decimated by other chains which built modern megaplexes. Along with the Lake Mary, General Cinema also vanquished the Colonial Promenade, Altamonte 8, and Fashion Square to exit the Orlando market. GCC would announce its bankruptcy plans which found its skeletal remaining portfolio of theatres eventually sold off to AMC Theatres.
SunStar Theatres Circuit of Coral Springs took on this venue on January 19, 2001 as the Lake Mary 8 Cinemas. The theatre was closed following the January 20, 2008 screenings ending the theater’s run. The space was converted to a fitness center.
