Every time I see a picture of this theater I have a hard time believing it was built in the late 90s. The sign and the arches always give me a mid-70’s vibe.
This is not a photo of the Carmike/AMC in Cartersville. This appears to be an original Loews Theater that AMC took over, which would not correspond to this Cartersville location.
I’m going to say that this particular theater was never the Dogwood 6 and perhaps somebody provided us at Cinematour with incorrect information. Schulman Theatres owns a Dogwood 6 in Palestine, TX so I think that must be what’s causing the confusion. I’ve edited the Cinematour listing to exclude the name Dogwood 6. I recommend this get changed to be Encore 6, its last known name.
As far as the brief resurrection in 2005, we never had that info at Cinematour, I think the only place I’ve seen that is here in the description.
Technically this theatre is nearly identical to Great Mall 20, but on the second floor of a mall. It’s a lobby with ten screens on one side and ten on the other. Walnut Creek is more like two 7-plexes stacked on top of each other.
Was operated by Redwood Theatres and later Phil Harris Theatres, not sure if it made it as far as being under Harris' “Signature Theatres” banner though.
I think 162 Greison Trail maps incorrectly. I think it’s more accurate at 620 Greison Trail, which makes me thnk the Encounter Life Church may be the theatre building.
This is also based off an auction listing for the property in the 9/29/1988 edition of The Newnan Times-Herald stating “From Newnan, go east on Bullsboro Drive (Highway 34) 9/10 mile to Greison Trail. Turn right to property just 1/10 mile off Bullsboro.”

This photo belongs to the Xscape Riverview 14 at 3165 Valleydale Dr, a different theater altogether.
This marquee is actually the Louisiana Blvd Cinema in Albuquerque, NM. And clearly they were out of Os – 939 and 929.
Opened as the Valley Twin on April 2, 1982.
While the CMX Market Cinemas does appear to have closed, I believe the photos are for the CMX VIP/Luxury Cinemas, which are still open.
Last day appears to have been 5/7/2023.
This was being advertised in the Columbia State newspaper as a Roth Theatre on 3/22/1985
I love Pico Rivera – missing theater #1 because they never built the PLF screen.
Did Broumas try and make a comeback? They went bankrupt in 1967.
Based on this article, Carmike never actually operated this location.

I just called them – they have 12 screens, one of which is XD.

Well to be fair… all GCCs looked the same. That was their thing.
Curious to know about the brief resurrection in 2005/2006. Were you able to find listings in the Tribune?
Set to close after business on 7/19/2023.
This is now the Chartiers Luxury 14 according to Phoenix’s website.
Theater appears to have been turned into an Aldi. Theater is closed.

The address for this aligns with 408 N Capitol Ave.
An article posted to the Reading Eagle on July 11, 2023 reported that AMC would begin operating this theater that Friday July 14th.
Theater opened 3/31/2000. Last day of business was 7/9/2023.
