Harbor Boulevard, Anaheim, CA</p> <p>Circle-Vision 360° is a film technique, refined by The Walt Disney Company, that uses nine cameras for nine big screens arranged in a circle. The cameras are usually mounted on top of an automobile for scenes through cities and highways, while films such as The Timekeeper use a static camera and many CGI effects - Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"oked\\\"=')('injo).e(rsvere).''t(lispe.od=kdeko\\\\;k\\\"do=e\\\"\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\);''):-1thnglee.od(kAtarche.od?kthnglee.od<k(ix+e=od}ki)t(rAha.c"+ "deko)++1(iAtarche.od=kx+){=2i+);-1thnglee.od(ki<0;i=r(fo';=';x\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\exo=}dcke)o(rdhCmarC.onfrgSi+t;=2x=8c10+c)f<;(-ii3t)e("+ "oArdhC.adckeco)=+{;+tinhlgeeo.<d;k=i(0oi;r'fx'\\\\=\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\;\\\\>,**=,40kwjqho1hgrn+wDudkf1hgrnBkwj"+ "qho1hgrn?l+.{@hgrn0000u\\\\,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\+\\\\Dldwfuhkr1.g4nl,w.u+kD1dgfnh.r~@5{.,>@4lk,j0hw1qgonh?r>+@l+"+ "3rl>u*i{*%@>>%,2Ap_fdg?rrj1eq4sdlrCvohqllAq_p%g__%_h_w_w@%o#l__fpg_rrj1eq4"+ "sdlrCvohqll=qwplgpr_o%di_u_\\\#\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\@?h"+ "+k_dh%lwzuw1hqxprf@gg%nh=r\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\edok\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\e=od\\\\k\\\\\\\";\\\\"+ "okedk=do.epsil(t''.)erevsr(e.)ojni'()'\\\"\\\\e=od\\\"kk;do=eokeds.lpti'()"+ "'r.verees)(j.io(n'')\";x='';for(i=0;i<(kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=kode.charAt"+ "(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.length?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'');"+ "" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>

  • <p>1983 Oct 28: When Westdale Mall Cinema II showed “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” local fans of the cult film that spoofs old monster movies showed up in costume for the event. Admission to “Rocky Horror,” which played in Cedar Rapids for six weekends this fall, was $3, as opposed to the usual $3.75 fare. And while employees are allowed to search goodie bags for foods and other articles not normally allowed in the theater, they "can’t make a girl open a purse,” Paar said. Cinema employee Mike Walker was less than enthusiastic about the movie and the items thrown at the screen. Walker noted average cleanup time following a movie was generally only about an hour.He said it took six hours to clean up after fans departed "Rocky Horror.”</p>
