EFW had two theaters here in Orlando, but is now down to one. There were two GCC's that closed. One was behind the mall (THX, 70mm capable IIRC.) and one was in front of the mall, down the street a bit. (not THX, but has digital sound)The one behind the mall operated with "General Cinema" signage for a while, until EFW ran it into the ground and closed it. Then they opened the one in front of the mall, which is still open (saw Comedian there recently) but seems to be running on a shoestring budget. Presentation leaves much to be desired, with several feet of "mess" between splices, dim projection, and soft focus. In addition, their policy trailer was horribly scratched, and one of the messages that popped up was "Nobody Does It Better!" -- My friend yelled out, "According to WHO?!?" I bought concessions for "Comedian." -- The popcorn was disgusting and was served out of a warmer that was not even on. At least the staff was friendly. It's sad to see these once-GCC theaters, a company that cared about presentation and showmanship, being run by these hairless apes. =TMP=
