Vintage United Artists Theatres policy trailer (Eastern division), 1977-89

COOL! I worked at UA Capital City Mall in Camp Hill PA. Ahhh... the memories that this brings back. I don't supposed that you have the midnight madness trailer do you? The one with the little blue man with guitar?

This started in 1984, before 1984 it was the 20 section trailer and some other theatre information

I played this trailer at the UA 8 in Buena Park, Ca. way back in the mid 80's. After hearing this on 8 screens, 5 times a day, it stuck with me like that song from the most annoying Disney ride.

What EdHavens said, I absolutely remember this trailer from seeing movies at the Santa Cruz, CA UA theaters when I was a young child -- Particularly the Capitola location (we lived a few blocks away).

Remember very well seeing this at Golden Ring Mall movies (Baltimore, y'all!!). They started with 5 screen back in the '70s and '80s, expanded in the '90s to (I think) 9 screens. Sadly, Golden Ring was torn down completely in the early '00s, then replaced with a Wal Mart, of all things. Such is the way of America now, sadly... Thanks for posting this, brings back such good memories of great people and a great place now passed into memories. Peace, from the wife of Faust6688

I worked at a seven screen UA Theater in High School. Lots of fun.

There used to be a UA 6 screen where I live built in the early 1980's.

It was renovated in the mid or late 1990's & Hollywood Theatres bought it later. It then later closed in 2000. It was demolished recently,but I have at my house all six Simplex projectors,five of six Christie AW3 platters & miscellaneous projection booth & sound equipment along with several trailers.

[EdHavens]

Odd. This is the trailer I played at my UA Theatres in Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Jose (eight locations total) from 1986-1989.

Oh man, I never forgot this tune. It has stuck with me all these years. My dad used to take me to the movies every Friday evening back in the late 80s. I've always wanted to see this again. Great memories. Where did you get this?

Now if only I can find the National Amusements one from the same time period.

The Eastern Version has a few more reminders that the Western version, such as asking to remain silent, and the suggestion of Gift certificates. Most notably it has the Escape to the Movies Outro which is absent from the Western Trailer.

[WhatsAYak]

Ah, memories...seeing this reminds me of going to the local UA w/my grandfather (who died last year, God rest his soul) just about every wk in the late 80s.

Used to see this every Friday at midnight before the Rocky Horror Picture Show at the Indiana Theater in Terre Haute, IN.

Put this together with "Snack Canyon" and you got a 1-2 punch!

This sounds like the PrimeTime Live theme.
