The first movie I saw in my local cinema was Santa Claus: The Movie and the last was Star Trek: Insurrection. Not long after that they closed it because another, larger cinema opened about a mile away.
Wow..is the Santa Movie the one with Dudley Moore? Man....if it is...i saw that movie too. Wasn't it made by the dude who made Superman movies???
It was indeed produced by Pierre Spengler and the Salkinds and yes it did have Dudley Moore in it.
I remember back in the day, here in san diego, when you had to go to a big screen, and I mean big screen, to see a movie. There were no 18-25 screen multiplexes. I remember waiting in line to see KHAN--ET--ROCKy 3--POLTERGIEST all in one summer....It was around ROGER RABBIT when the big-screens started to be taken down in favor of the big multi-plexes..at least, thats how I remember it being..
Heh, thanks to the Internet I never have to wait in line to see a movie - even The Dark Knight on opening night at the Odeon Leicester Square.
