I stumbled upon this site by accident (I was looking for pics of Cinefart over in the Hamster Mall)... Its a detailed register of pretty much every movie theater ever to have existed. Which is kinda cool... and then really kind of depressing, since most of the theaters are marked in red as demolished or closed. I mean, the movie theater industry has kinda been in decline since people started staying home and watching television, and as multiplexes moved in and gobbled up all the movies and raised prices and stuff, all the 1-5 screen theaters one by one started vanishing. Not to mention the drive-ins.
Its kind of a cool site, especially as a memorial to a forgotten era.
