FangsFirst and other commenters, I am writing a book about Columbia’s movie theaters and wonder if you’d be willing to talk to me or lend me any images you have of the Forum. I have a nonprofit website comohistoricplaces.com and my email is . Thanks!
Keeping up with movie theatres is difficult. Here’s an article about Columbia’s theatres, including the Missouri Theatre – no longer primarily showing movies, but live performances.

Two are still used for entertainment, the third is a restaurant. Here are the details on movie theatres in Columbia. http://columbiabusinesstimes.com/8240/2010/06/25/capturing-columbia%E2%80%99s-cinema-century/
