One last trip to Movies 8 today and some pictures for you guys in regard to some prior comments!
The marquee is officially blank. Over a decade of memories for us and over 30 years being a movie theater has come to a close 💚🧡💜
🎥The next 2 pictures are of auditorium 5. A few of you noticed in a recent post that it was not pictured. Here’s why. That auditorium had not been used for quite some time due to a projector being down. We suffered a fire suppression system break during a cold snap a couple years ago and the break was in this auditorium causing water damage and falling ceiling tiles as pictured. With business falling off so much, at times we didn’t need to use more than 5 theaters let alone all 8 so we didn’t get it fixed up until it was needed, and that day unfortunately never came.
🍿The last 2 pictures are what was our stock room but used to be a secondary concession stand in the hallway leading to theaters 1, 2, 6 and 7. You can see the mini marquee for the menu and across from that is the drywall that sealed the wall shut and made it our stock room.
Not all parts of running a business are pretty. But we’re grateful for the good, bad and ugly that came with running your locally owned discount theater for the last 11 years❤️
On a positive note, ITS ALMOST DRIVE IN SEASON!☀️🚗 Be sure to come see us at Skyway Drive-In for a $10 first run double feature this summer!
