Default Re: Warren Theatre coming to Memorial and Rockwell

I think AMC will be okay. There's a lot of us in the NW that don't like driving all the way to May Ave just to fight the mall traffic to see a movie. I'm sure they get lots of customers from Edmond anyway (does Edmond have a theater?) A little competition is good for the consumer.

BTW, the PC area's had lots of theaters come and go. I remember sneaking into the drive-in theater next to Hertz on NW Expressway (where Hideaway Pizza / the old Service Merchandise / Hemispheres is now). I also spent many hours in the little two-screen West Park theater at 63rd & MacArthur. There's Brixton Square, and the AMC in the shopping center on NW Expressway between Council and County Line (now an Express "convention center" I believe). Then there's the dollar theater that nearly ruined that shopping center at 63rd and NW Expressway. Tearing that down was a smart decision.
