There are some nice shots of the Warner and Grauman’s about a minute into this film. Don’t bother watching the rest as they head off in a different direction.

Wow the place looked really great in the 80’s with the movies on the marquee….
Here is the marquee in July 1942:

Sad to walk by this place and see it slowly falling apart. The vertical sign is in really poor condition.

Great photos in all the Hollywood theaters sections. Thanks.
Is the Pacific a church now? It says churchinhollywood.com on the marquee.
Great pics, always makes me a little homesick.

Ken we must have walked past this place around the same time. I was there having a look around on Oct 18th seeing ‘9 To 5 The Musical’
While looking at Ken’s pictures, all I could think of was that “2001” played here for more than a year. Oh how the mighty have fallen :(
I spend hours looking thru your collection and sometimes even find I’ve lost whole days!
Any time. Thanks for the encouragement.
Ken’s photos are always amazing weather they be those seen here in L.A or from any corner of the word in which he visits.
Keep ‘em coming Ken! Many thanks!
The photos posted by ken mc suggest that this was a fine theatre and hopefully someone may come along and revive it before the whole building is demolished through non use.
The restoration of the El Capitan some years back was a real boost for the area and it would be great to see the same here.
The theatre was on the sales block long before it closed in 1990’s. Besides the earthquake damage in the twins upstairs and the MTA flooding the basement. Pacific leased the theatre to that USC Digital group for a while.
I think Pacific Theatres made a big mistake when they closed the theatre. It would have been easier to sell the building to an interested buyer had the theatre been open and not closed.Pacific with its booking clout could have sold the building and leased back the theatre for a period of time. They could have put some big films in the large theatre and moved over to the smaller Arclight screens.The longer the theatre remains empty the longer any buyer would be interested in buying the whole building in this part of Hollywood Boulevard. The building could be painted and made more attractive to a possible buyer. Have they ever heard of curb appeal.brucec
Excellent photos !! Ill take a small apartment on the second floor in the SW corner. I just have myself and my Yorkie, Motown. I always get ‘home sick’ when I see Hollywood photos. Long live the Warner Pacific Hollywood.
