At the old Showcase in 1980 I saw a sneak preview of “Flash Gorden”. My friends and I joked about how “maybe Queen (soundtrack) and Dino DeLaurentis (producer) might be there” (in Orange CT). We all laughed. I went to get popcorn and there was Dino DeLaurentis and the rock group Queen (without Freddie).

These were the best theaters outside of NY. Shortly after, the 3 theaters were split in half with a wall to make 6 – unfortunately the angled seats in each made this strange. A 7th small theater was added later on. When it was just the 3 my mom had taken me there to see 2001 – amazing as I recall.
