My theater is called "Museum Place Cinemas" its in the Museum Place Mall.... very normal for a theater, the mall's name + cinema.

Most of them usually say "SilverCity" but this one doesn't! Movies... very boring, but yet, get's to the point! ------------------ Andrew McCrea "I'm Not Bad, I'm Just Drawn That Way!" - Jessica Rabbit Tal Marks Film Handler Posts: 57 From: New York, NY Registered: Oct 1999 posted 02-20-2001 05:52 PM                        John: I'm one of three projectionists that work the twelve 35mm projectors (2 of which are 35/70). There is also a three man crew that work exclusively in IMAX. William T. Parr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 823 From: Cedar Park, TX Registered: Nov 2000 posted 03-11-2001 01:19 PM                     OK I am not an offical emplyee of the theatre, but the one I am curently doing Charity work for is the Howard Twin in Taylor, Tx. Not exactly a Multiplex either, but it got it's name from the Original owner, Howard Bland. The only other twins I have been around had names like Mann National twin in Corpus Christi, Tx. Mann Central Park Fox 4 in San Antonio, got it's name from the Mall (Central Park) and the Original Operators (Fox Theatres) and the Number of Screens. Mann sold this theatre to Santiko's in 1977 or 78? Fox also was the original operator of the National Twin in Corpus. Mann Closed this theatre the 1st time in 1984, the reopened it in 1989 only to close it again in 1991. Operated as a 2 screen changeover booth until it's 1st closing. Had Ultra Stereo installed in 1 Auditorium for the Re-release of Fantasia, 3 months before it closed. The oringinal 2 screens of UA Cine 6 in Corpus was called Duex Cine. The 2 screens at the Woodlawn Shopping Center were the Cine West 1 & 2. Was Not exactly on the Westside of town, but close enough for Hand Grenades . Of course I helped open the Century 16 Corpus Christ as Scott eluded to earlier about how Bland Century is about naming things.
