Thanks Bob for the info. I didn’t know MANN Theatres were outside the state of California.

Last movie I saw here was Deepstar Six, right when they were adding the addition to the mall. The theater used to be the last occupant before you went outside. Then, they added the addition which included Dillards and it shut down shortly there after.

Dickenson wouldn’t take the new lease the mall was offering with additional screens. Late shows exiting patrons in the middle of a mall that closed at 9 p.m. became awkward.

Needs to have the address and description corrected. Theater wasn’t just in a neighborhood, it was in a mall, and East Hills is not the street name.
