This theatre operated after Mann closed in 1988. It appears in Denver Post newspaper listings as the Starship Southglenn 7 as late as April 1999. There was a Starship Theatres operating in Salt Lake around this time, though I’m not sure this was the same company. Starship was also oeprating the Aurora Plaza 6 and Aurora Mall 3.
It was not a GCC. No record of it in the GCC files I’ve seen nor do any of the newspaper ads resemble a General Cinema ad. I believe that’s why Rivest referred to it as “a ‘CGC’ cinemas chain.”
For what it’s worth AMC closed both buildings after business on January 5, 2003 when they decided to not renew their lease.
Regal Cinemas reopened the 1-3 (inside the mall) on April 11, 2003 and operated it until July 13, 2006, the night before their new 16-plex opened at the same mall. Cinema 1-3 still stands closed inside the mall.
Cinema 4-10 (outside the mall) were never reopened and were demolished in 2005.
A December 17, 1986 article in the Everett Daily Herald reported that the theatre would close the following day. The same article specified that this theatre was not included in the recent sale to Cineplex Odeon.
An article in the December 19, 1985 edition of the Conway Log Cabin Democrat reported the Cinema 6 would have its grand opening the following day. The article went on to say “The theater, owened by the Mitchell Brothers of Dallas, has 857 seats divided among six auditoriums, the largest seating 210 and the smallest seating 120.”
By the mention of the “Mitchell Brothers” I would assume Cinemark operated it from day one.
An article (including a photo) from the May 23, 1982 edtion of the Conway Log Cabin Democrat reported on recent repairs to the aging theatre and presented a brief history. Article lists 4/22/1924 as the opening day.
The Scottsdale Discount Cinema stopped appearing in United Artists listings in the Arizona Republic after December 25, 1997. The Cinemafare section of the newspaper which listed movie times separate of the directory listings showed this theatre as closed.
An article in the November 7, 1998 Arizona Republic reported (with photo) that this theatre was being transformed into a contemporary art extension of the Scottsdale Center for the Arts, near Old Town Scottsdale.
Judging by images from Google street view, this building still stands as part of the Contemporary Art Museum at the northeast corner of E 2nd Street and N Wells Fargo Ave.
All the Regal Cinemas photos posted are not the Seminole Towne Center 10. Seminole was a very UA branded building its entire life. The pictures posted (including the interiors) are the Regal Ormond Beach Cinema.
A January 7, 1999 article in the Wichita Falls imes Record News reported Carmike Cinemas decision to close the theatre after business that day. It was known as Cinema 4 when it closed.
It is not. But I’m curious where the idea that it was taken back by Regal came from. Just because Regency didn’t reopen it doesn’t mean it’s Regal’s again.
Actual close date of this theatre was 12/31/1996. An article in the January 1, 1997 edition of the Kansas City Star reported on the closing of this theatre.
Can we get the theatre name updated to Century 11 Theatres - it was never known as the Syufy Theatre except for the fact that it was owned by Syufy Luxury Theatres. The name of the theare was always Century.

This is not the same Cineplex.
The Cineplex that operated in Texas was not the same company that operated in Canada.
This theatre is listed in the Houston Chronicle until 1999, appearing in Co-Op ads as a “Cinemann” theatre. It last appeared January 6, 1999.

Don’t think Frank operated this did they? Carmike did after Muvico.

This is the Fox in Rolling Hills Estates, not Thousand Oaks.

Judging by the original opening ad, that was still AMC. I don’t think AMC took it over, they opened it.
General Cinema operated it through September 27, 2000. Entertainment Film Works reopened in December 2001 and operated it until late April 2002.
Wouldn’t be the worst to say you got the photos from Cinematour. Maybe even give credit to the original photographer.
Wow. They took the UA Grand Opening ad and just threw an R/C logo on it. Wild.
I’d never known GCC to have the name of the theatre underneath “CINEMA” like that. Neat!
