“Have they shown "Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory” or “Charlie and the chocolate factory” there?"

Davidcoppock: “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” (Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka) most likely played at the Turnage Theatre downtown, as the Mall Cinemas did not open until 1976. “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” (Johnny Depp as Wonka)most likely did play at this theatre under Carmike Cinemas.

NightHawk1, I do believe he was making a specific reference to the new owner’s company name.
