Paul Allen’s got money invested in the new Cinerama. It’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Wish I’d known about the seat sale at the UA 150. Would’ve bought a roomful. As for the UA 70, I think it was always a 35mm moviehouse. As for ET, yes, it opened June 11, 1982 on the UA 70 side and then moved to the UA 150 when the 70mm print was released sometime in August of that year. I’ve also been lamenting the loss of the great Southcenter theatre (demolished for a restaurant).
