Joe, was the Arapahoe, the 16plex that the "Interlock 101", in the video section, was shot at?

I was a good ol MANN employee back in the days when Mann in Colorado was pretty big - they were right there next to Cooper-Hyland in screen size.

Here's a news story on this. (Crown's east coast theaters were acquired by a company called Bow Tie.)

Kerasotes to manage Crown Theatres Glen 10

March 1, 2007

Kerasotes ShowPlace Theatres LLC Friday will take over management of the Crown Theatres Glen 10 in Glenview.

The movie theaters are owned by OliverMcMillan, developer of The Glen Town Center, and the developer will continue to own them. Crown Theatres had managed the facility since it opened in 2003.

Chicago-based Kerasotes this week also announced it has acquired the Crown Theatres Village Crossing 18 in Skokie from Crown Theatres LLC of Norwalk, Conn.

"The Crown Theatres in the Chicago area have stood as a shining example of what community involved locations are capable of achieving," Tim Johnson, Kerasotes' director of operations, stated. "We sincerely hope to continue the Crown Theatres' well received programs, such as the Children's Summer Film Festival, Movies for Moms and the Email Club."

Kerasotes in November opened a 12-screen theater in Golf Mill shopping center in Niles and another facility in Cicero.

Founded in 1909, the chain is the nation's sixth largest film exhibitor, operating 94 theaters with 838 screens in Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri and Ohio.

When the stupid Comedy Central show Freak Show premiered, all Kerasotes locations were handing out short comics to all persons watching R-rated shows. The comics contained gratuitous profanity. I sent Tim Johnson an email with the list of phrases our older customers found offensive, asking that they not be distributed to people outside the college student demographic. He agreed. I imagine that was the first and last time I will ever be able to send a corporate bigwig an email containing the phrase "ass powder". [Big Grin]
