The Jerry Lewis Cinema Was First Planned During The First Few Days Of January 1972. The Westgate Shopping Center Then Opened It’s First Place Which Is A Retail Store “Interior Of Rice’s” On February 16, 1972. The Company Mitchell’s Also Opened It’s 50th Location In The Westgate 11 Days Later.

I Feel Very Guilty On Some Photos I’ve Seen Throughout The Past 3 Years, Hoping The Photo Of A Movie That Featured A Few Scenes, One With The Man Facing The Opposite Direction To Where The Screen Faces Which Was Playing NSS’s On-The-Spot (1964) (Or Some People Called It A Jay Ward Flick-O As I Sometimes Call It), And Another Scene Featuring A Unknown Woody Woodpecker Cartoon (The One With The White Wood Title Card Background From The 1960’s, Not The Brown One From The Early 1970’s). I Darnly Forgot What That Film Is Called Anyway.
These Photos I’ve Discovered Belongs To The Astro, And Yes There Are Several Ones I Have To Look Over With Since It’s A Very Big Hotspot For Films Back Then.
Also, During It’s Successful Triplex Run, The Leader-Telegram Of Eau Claire Placed Showings Together Along With The Downtown 1 & 2. Being Separated, It Was Narrated As “Downtown 5”. Despite Being Separated In Downtown Areas, It Is Blocks Ahead.
Yes This Became A Triplex At The Time And Successfully Led Its Triplex Run Happily Throughout The Rest Of The 1980’s And Into Parts Of The Early 1990’s. And Yes, The Unique Thing About This Theater Is That It Had Separate Names.
All I Can Find Other Information About This Theater Is When This Triplex While Being Operated By Grengs Theatres Was Once Closed In 1993 But Reopened Later That October While Under Competitions. I Don’t Know When It Actually Closed As A Movie Theater, But The Only Hints I Can Find Were More Commonly (95% Sure) In The 1990’s Or (5% Sure) In The Very Early 2000’s.
Sometimes It Was Marked As “Cinema 7” According To Cinemark’s Location List In 1996. The Theater’s Cinemark Ownership Lasted Until 1998 When It Became The Independent Operated $1.00 Cinema.
The name for the Christian Athletic Hall lasted for a short time. It was renamed as the Miller Palm Garden on October 24, 1913 and went over a few name changes containing the word “Palm Garden” such as “The Palm Garden” and “Palm Garden Theatre”. Directed by Liberty Theatre owner A.R. Zimmer and manager R.E. Berber, the theater changed its name to the Isis Theatre on February 15, 1922. The theater reopened with “The Testing Book” starring William S. Hart, along with a comedy titled “Oh, Buddy”, a Christie Special Comedy.
Opened as the De Luxe Theatre as early as 1917, became the Empress Theatre in the fall of 1920, and then the Walmur Theatre on August 17, 1922 right before the lobby was remodeled.
Right Before The Nearby Star Theatre Had A Break For The Summer, The Nusho Theatre Opened On May 20, 1921 With Mae Murray In “The Gilded Lady” (A Paramount Picture). It Closed In 1926.
Actually dallasmovietheaters is mostly right about the Wonderland but he actually mentioned about 2 different Wonderlands mixed in. As of today, I found a lot of new information about this Wonderland that there are actually 2 Wonderland Theaters located in nearby sections of the city which both are on Oak throughout its history.
This Wonderland is the location that is relocated after the closing of the old Wonderland Theatre (opened on May 11, 1911) building in early February 1926, the theater relocated quickly down the street and the New Wonderland Theatre opened at the old Wolf-Meyer building on February 19, 1926 with the 1925 Vitagraph Company of America film “Wildfire” starring Aileen Pringle. Ray Brown continued to be the owner of the new Wonderland Theatre; among the former old Wonderland Theatre. The New Wonderland Theatre during the first year had a strong Pathe Films focus due to its popularity for the city of Sallisaw movie fans.
Like the old Wonderland Theatre in January 1912, terror passes by at both Wonderlands, which includes the new Wonderland Theatre.
The similar, more exact January 1912 incident of the “old Wonderland” occurred during December 1929 when the New Wonderland Theatre was under a Christmas nightmare, which was destroyed by a fire. The fire was caused by the projector while screening an unknown silent film. When 1930 rolled along, the theater was remodeled, and E.B. Bugher (former old Wonderland Theatre operator) became the owner once again and added a new projector. The theater reopened on January 20, 1930 when Jack Conway’s direction Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film “Our Modern Maidens” starring Joan Crawford became the first showing right after the devastating fire destruction.
And yes here’s the sound information; as we flash forward a year later to January 30, 1931 and at that time, the RCA Photophone Incorporated sound system was installed at the New Wonderland Theatre and began screening talkies. John Barrymore in Warner Brothers' “Moby Dick” became the first talkie at the New Wonderland. In a confusing note, popular company Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s sound films didn’t began running at the New Wonderland Theatre until April 10, 1932.
The Old Wonderland Theatre’s page is up but I forgot to add the statement on the January 1912 fire destruction among the reopening in January 1916, they will update it as soon as possible.
