Author Topic: Quick survey (Re: Paramount Abilene theater) Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 01-14-2012 11:48 AM                     2 weeks have passed, so how many people noticed the new video addition on the front page of this site? Does it get "lost" amidst the rest of the text? Do people not use the main page in their bookmarks?  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 01-14-2012 12:45 PM                     I noticed the video addition, and watched it. I have FT bookmarked at the main page. The Paramount Theater video text listing isn't the most obvious thing, but it is noticeable since it is by itself in its own section on the main page.  |  IP: Logged Alan Gouger Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 501 From: Bradenton, FL, USA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 01-14-2012 12:54 PM                        I have FT main page bookmarked as well & noticed the video and watched it. I always look and hope for new videos and pic warehouse updates, I enjoy them. Using "Today's Active Forum Discussions" to direct to me to the current topics I rarely find myself starting from the main forum directory anymore.  |  IP: Logged Rick Raskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1100 From: Manassas Virginia Registered: Jan 2003 posted 01-14-2012 01:05 PM                     I bookmark the main page and am always interested in new additions to the warehouse.  |  IP: Logged Victor Liorentas Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 800 From: london ontario canada Registered: May 2009 posted 01-14-2012 01:25 PM                     I have the forums page book marked so I of course missed it but Wow! Great theater and very very well done video!  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 01-14-2012 02:32 PM                     I'd love to see a film there. I also love the red traveler up front, very nice touch.

Thanks for making it  |  IP: Logged Lionel Fouillen Expert Film Handler Posts: 230 From: Belgium Registered: Nov 2002 posted 01-14-2012 02:48 PM                     I noticed on the first day, watched it and loved it. Hope their enterprise goes on. It didn't look lost at all. I'm using the "Home" page as main page for visiting Film-Tech.  |  IP: Logged Mark Ogden Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 943 From: Little Falls, N.J. Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-14-2012 02:58 PM                     I noticed it about a about a week ago, but only because I wondered why I hadn't seen anything new from the warehouse in awhile. In other words, I had to go to the main page and search for it. It doesn't jump out at a person like it did before. I have the main page bookmarked, but mostly I just notice the recent topics. Now that I know where to look, I will more often.  |  IP: Logged James Westbrook Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1133 From: Lubbock, Texas, Usa Registered: Mar 2006 posted 01-14-2012 03:45 PM                     I noticed it and watched it. Makes me want to take a road trip when they are running a classic film and check it out. (And drive back home immediately after).  |  IP: Logged Steven J Hart Master Film Handler Posts: 282 From: WALES, ND, USA Registered: Mar 2004 posted 01-14-2012 04:33 PM                        Saw it right away on New Years Day. Beautiful Theater and great video. Someday I hope to travel the nation and check out as many of the remaining single screen palaces that I can find  |  IP: Logged John Lasher Master Film Handler Posts: 493 From: Newark, DE Registered: Aug 2001 posted 01-14-2012 04:47 PM                        I noticed it a few days after it was posted (I think largely due to the fact that I haven't been here in a while.) I only just watched it because I'm usually multi-tasking when I'm online and don't want to take the time to watch a video. (Or just don't want to take the time/effort to get the headphones out and plug them in.) Well done video, but the music used makes me sad that the place is closed now (at least that's the impression I got).  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-14-2012 06:05 PM                        I noticed it but never got a chance (or remembered) to go watch it. Awesome theatre and nice job on the video.  |  IP: Logged Tony Bandiera Jr Film God Posts: 3067 From: Moreland Idaho Registered: Apr 2004 posted 01-14-2012 06:16 PM                     I also noticed it but haven't had a chance to watch it. (Y'all know why.) Hell I still have to get the pics of my Dark Side install for y'all.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 01-14-2012 08:28 PM                     ...loved how the music builds up when heading to the booth... good ol' American Standard Seating - we had the same style at the "Paramount Theatre" (the actual name) I worked in back in my home town during the 70's and 80's. Our stage wasn't as deep as this one, but we did do our fair share of stage production (I handled the lights, the fly work, and stage setup). Arts council has the theatre now.  |  IP: Logged
