After Capri Four was reopened and renamed Paradigm, I made a prediction and sadly, my prediction came true. One day I was reading the paper and it said that Paradigm was no longer going to be a discount theater. When I read that, I predicted that Paradigm would go out of business in 6 months or less and I was right. I knew that nobody would pay Paradigm full price when they could go to the theaters at College Square Mall. College Square Mall had over twice as many movies to choose from. It also had better sound and larger screens than Paradigm.

I watched several movies there. In 1979, Dad took us there to see The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again. In 1983, I watched Superman III there. In 1987, I watched Superman IV and Monster Squad there and in 1997, I watched Batman & Robin there. That was the last time I went there. The Capri Theater began with only 1 theater. They built a second theater, and in 1983, they built an extra 2 theaters which made it have four theaters. Their name was the ‘Capri Twin’ but after the two new theaters were added, they changed their name to ‘Capri Four’.
