Does It really matter,go on a slow night and watch a movie.The people that think these questions up are the same folks that would bug me on Thursday night when i was doing inventory.Be a theatre manager for one day and LEAVE ME ALONE!
Thanks JuliaG. Harlem,Ga. Home of Oliver Hardy,think they might have changed the name to HARDY THEATRE when they redid the old COLUMBIA THEATRE marquee,named after the county the theatre is in.
I found a member named Fredrick,he has a page on Old Movie ads you might want to see underVintage movie ads I think.It is on my page on CT. Great ads he has on from the 70’s!
Enjoyed the story.I guess one of the resons i decided to get a job and stay 7 years in the business was the one-sheets and color 8 by 10 stills we got. As a doorman it wasn’t long before the “paper” was going home with me,up til then i was told most of it went in the Dumpster,So I saved just about everything except Disney,and I have a few of those.Was able to get a good collection of 007 and Clint Eastwood.Worth Thousands of Dollars I know,but I never got them to sell.The one sheets today really are nothing like what you and i have.For one thing the things are smaller won’t even fit in my poster frames I have taken from old closed up theatres and Drive-ins!
What I never could figure out,and i was a manager,but pro-union is why producers and directors would use union labor to make a movie then turn it over to a 17 year old to present to moviegoers.I wish someone that knows much more Than I do,please explain?
Best I can do not being from Hotlanta is this was a four plex at one time owned by UA,when they were buying theatres like there was no tommorrow,only to dump them on Regal. It was located in South Dekalb Mall.Four movies showing there March 28 1988 were:
“MOVING” rated R
“MASQUERADE” rated R
“POLICE ACADEMY V” rated PG
“SCHOOL DAZE” rated R
“suspension” another Anderson made up term.?How do you get suspended and collect unemployment.Things must have been different in those days.I am sure Stan in Atlanta will be able to add a lot to this theatre.
Thanks Bob,wish someone from South Georgia was on CT.

MY GCC manager’s dark blue coat would be called RAGTAG right now.Wonder if they would want to display it.
“ZELIG” a theatre Woody Allen would like.

Thanks Seymour Cox.
I think it looked just like my theatre here and like the Cedar Bluff in Knoxville.All three ABC theatres opening about the same time.
Can’t believe this theatre opened with two musicals in each theatre,Stupid booking or either you folks up there like musicals!

We played the trailer to “BOGGY CREEK” a G rated movie and a parent complained it was too scary!
