General Cinema 😂😢🎉

Based on the movies that were showing, this training video is from 1986.

their concession prices are about retail's today

The guy on the thumbnail’s first name I think is Wayne? He worked at Marketplace Mall 7.

At 14:26 I knew the manager on the right when I used to work there back in the 80s….he was a drunk party guy who came in hung over a lot.

Freight trains, city reservoirs.... Any thing to avoid the metric system, eh USA.

I been waiting 17 YEARS and this movie still hasn’t come out. Musta blew the budget on this trailer man smh man

This is the absolute peak of film, and if you don't understand it or like it, then that is your loss

Wow amazing

I’ll never get this minute back

Nice

Funny thing no one seemed to notice: they're in the "motion picture business," and their training "video" is a collection of still images. 😂

Based on the movies listed in the marquee in the training video, I was able to figure out that the footage was taken in 1986.

man i remember that intro jingle from other drive in adds

“ that will be two dollars out of 10. Your change is three…” wrong

Do not give out the secret Krabby Patty recipe

Fun fact: The video itself uses music that would be heard on Ren and Stimpy, as well as, of course, SpongeBob SquarePants. Any 90’s Nick Kids here agree?

I worked with a lot of theatre circuits in the last 45 years, and General Cinema was one of the best.

look at those prices 1.25 for candy!

He dead

Did you make this :)

Treat customers like the kings and queens they think they are.

TIMELESS, common sense.Great training video for almost any, dealing with the public profession.

I'm ready for my first day on the job! 🫡

This video says nothing about how to jettison the snacks into space. That must have been in one of those workbooks.

Holy Crap, I would love to know how the person who posted this got the footage. This was shot at Marketplace General Cinema in Henrietta, NY. I know many of the faces of the people in this video because I worked with them from 1988 - 1989 as an usher and in concessions., and from 1990 - 1991, as a cleaner. This theater was the premiere theater in Rochester NY and on a Friday and Saturday nights it was typical to see a line wrapped around the theater. I have so many awesome memories of this theater and the people that worked there. The Marketplace Mall Cinema 7 was opened May 2, 1986, and it remained open until 2000 when General Cinema went into bankruptcy.

Upsell! I was very good at that!

This is classic. I worked for many movie theaters back in the 90s. This was one of them! The fail part of this video is hilarious! I have nothing, can you stop by on the way out, lol. Fired!

0:03 this bgm is also used on GCC 1990 policy trailer

Is this Richard Dreyfus narrating this?

Those movies on the sign came out in the summer of '86! I worked at Westgate Cinemas (GCC) in Brockton, Ma. that summer.

GCC Chestnut Hill - I saw a few movies there (Pocahontas and at least one or two others) during my family's brief stint in Boston during the Summer of 95.... IIRC it was tired and outdated even at that point and closed some time before AMC bought out General Cinema in 2002. Today it's Showcase Cinemas' flagship "Super Lux." My partner and I went there awhile back, by far the classiest movie theater I've ever been to and the food was phenomenal - though not a cheap date night for sure! Pretty sure we spent north of $150 between our tickets, dinner, and adult beverages - crazy how much things have changed since the days of GCC.

So back then, most theater chains didn't pop their own popcorn!? Wow, times have changed. Nowadays, every theater I go to pops it fresh in front of the customers. I think theaters and concession stands have gotten bigger since then.

There was another one filmed at our theatre in Fayetteville, NC in the summer of '89. But this isn't it.

Lmao

I enjoyed this too. It retracts the history of General Cinema Corporation itself. It's one important piece of GCC history. These training tapes taught new employees on how to work in the Concession stands at every GCC around at that time. Let's keep the history of GCC alive!!!

I use to rock the red vest and bow tie. My first and best job ever. I had so much fun.

The easy steps for how to work at general cinema in Dallas fort Worth.

Jump on it quick! When they're gone they're gone bro. And for a horror shirt it's cheap

Might try to buy that shirt

Working at a General Cinema was one of my first jobs. I started in 94 and worked there till 2001. It's still the best job I ever had. Didn't get paid much but I loved it. I'm 43 now and every once and a while I'll have a dream that I go back and everything is just as it was. Same people working. I look forward to those dreams lol. Thanks for this upload.

congratulations on winning :)

Great video and a fantastic channel. I just missed vinegar syndromes sale but there is always the black Friday sale....Love to see more from you :)
