fred,enjoyed the story on Buttered popcorn.I have been on CT a couple of years and that was the first time i had ever read that on the Butter.It was the same thing at the theatres I worked at.thanks.
Ex-Mayor Bob Young had a great idea.have Hollywood come in film a scene at the old Mall; like having it blown apart in an action movie.Haul the remains to the city dump and let mother nature reclaim it.But I would like to get in that Triple one more time.My son Kyle and some Friends slipped in one day and walked around.I told him never do that again,no telling who is in there,but Barry doggone it outta be able to pull some strings and get the three of us in there.dawn6770,that’s about the time the mall started going down hill it only had few years of decent folks shopping there.Every Town of any size has a “south Augusta” and I grew up on Rocky Creek Road right above the Mall.
I loved that one-sheet on “OSTERMAN WEEKEND” we played it 1983 I think,so by the time they got it it must have been second run.I wish I would have kept the one-sheet instead of giving it away.Great pictures.
Hard to Believe it was Georgia’s Largest when It opened. I have opening night picture of the Road Marquee and the three movies playing,if you can get them on I will mail them to you Russell. Thanks Mr,Jeter,that theatre certainly Changed my life forever.Russ,glad you didn’t marry a box office girl.
Great pictures,wish Clint would have been on the “WHERE EAGLES DARE"Marquee,but i guess at that time Burton might have been a tad more famous,just a tad.By 1970 Clint wouldn’t have to worry about top billing .
I also saw ALan Throw a drunk out one night.Glad you like the pictures,since Nick seems to be tied up in Tampa I would glad to send pictures your way,I found one on the EXCHANGE I took it way before it opened,Workers are working on the Concession.there should be pictures of Regency already on the Regency Mall site.I know Nick put one or two on,Heck, I even have one of Dray from the Newspaper Article they Did on Him.Loved his Quote:“MOVIES HAVE TOO MUCH CUSSING IN THEM TODAY.” Yep,Good old Chuck,Bad language sure did Offend him.LOl.LOl.There is a whole Site just on GENERAL CINEMA,the whole history,heck I was reading again the other night.Glad You liked the pictures,wish we would have taken More.Of Course,Barry is suppose to have quite a few pics!!!
Did this Drive-in go by the name of Fox Drive-in in Fort Scott?
Thanks ronp,Mondays were always slow I think for everyone,even in the good old days.
