I think the other theatre in town that was running local plays was called THE RITZ? I got a tour of that theatre and took some shots.I THINK IT WAS the RITZ Theatre.

Mike Rogers commented about Regal Augusta Village Cinema 12 on Mar 15, 2010 at 6:30 pm

Yeah, I wanted no part of the booth and glad i came around when i did.I was better on the floor than in a booth. This place Like ALL REGAL theatres Was manager operated. i don’t know how they get anyone to run that 20 plex in town. I hit the dumpster when they were closing up but found nothing worth keeping. Certainly,NO one-sheets. They gutted everything,

Robin,Cathy might outta do like Nick does see DALE MARBY Drive-in,He sat down and just wrote a great story about his theatre days.She could do that one time and not have to keep putting stories on all the time like the rest of us do. You ouuta put that Picture of DIANE on the marquee on CT,You don’t know how many times I was going to do the same thing Like: CLINT EASTWOOD and MIKE ROGERS in THE ENFORCER. I was just too Dang lazy to do it. Wish I would have done it so much now.

I took pictures of the LYRIC theatre in the late 80’s it looked like it was used for storage. There was another theatre in town that was running local plays,Took pictures there,but can’t remember the name.Also visited the old DRIVE-IN there and got some pictures.

I enjoyed my times at GCC.they worked the crap out of managers and that salary certainly never covered the long hours,but i think most of us never did it for the money.

I can’t believe i went over there and got an application.the story is on AUGUSTA EXCHANGE 12 on CT. There was no way to watch people from sneaking in without a ticket too many accesses.

I never liked Georgia Theatres I bet it was little Curt Harris that let you go.Typical sterotype of a movie theatre manager one sees in the movies. I am right?

Last time I went in there with flash light in hand there was already a leaky roof in one of the cinemas. The 12 plex is still empty the AUGUSTA EXCHANGE 12 it is on CT. that is a better spot,but who the heck has that kind of money and REGAL cleaned it out when they left town.
