USER: Write a forum conversation about a long since abandoned Odeon Cinema that closed in mid 2005, the readograph still has the final "GOODBYE FOREVER" message, and the signs directing people to Odeon London are still there

CHATBOT: Title: The Abandoned Odeon Cinema - Its Last Message Frozen in Time Forum: Forgotten Spaces and Places Thread Creator: MovieBuff2000 Date: March 12, 2023 MovieBuff2000: Since we all love sharing tales of abandoned places here, I thought I'd kick off a discussion about the old Odeon Cinema that closed its doors in mid-2005. Have any of you visited it recently? The place is a time capsule! The readograph outside still reads "GOODBYE FOREVER" - gave me the chills when I saw it. It's like they knew it wouldn't just be "goodbye for now". Even the signs pointing folks to Odeon London are still hanging around, tattered but clear. It's eerie and fascinating all at once. CinephileSteve: Oh, I remember going there as a kid. That huge screen, the smell of popcorn... it was magical. Seeing it fall into decay is heartbreaking. Is the building structurally sound? Could be an awesome spot for an indie film or a photoshoot now that I think about it. UrbanExplorer: I've walked past it a few times. The "GOODBYE FOREVER" message is indeed poignant. It's like the last words of a once-loved haven for film enthusiasts. Always hoped they'd turn it into a museum or something. Still, trespassing is not advisable, especially with these old structures. Anyone know why it closed down all of a sudden? RetroQueen: @UrbanExplorer - If I recall correctly, the rising popularity of multiplexes and streaming services really hit the traditional cinemas hard. That Odeon just couldn't compete. Not to mention the cost of maintenance for such a big old building must have been a bottomless pit. OldTimer: I used to work at the concessions stand there! The place closed down because of low attendance and a failed attempt at renovation. After they realized they couldn't afford the refurbishment, they just shut it down, intending to sell it off. But with no buyers interested in an old cinema, there it sat... and sits. Filmmaker_josh: That's such a cool piece of history waiting to be repurposed. Has the interior been scrapped or is it still intact? Any vintage seats, projectors, or cinema memorabilia left behind? MovieBuff2000: @Filmmaker_josh, I think most of the interior was cleared out. There might be some old fixtures or pieces left, but I didn't venture inside. It's all boarded up, and there's rumor that it might be dangerous due to asbestos. Last thing we want is to disturb that! Graffiti_Guru: Passed by it once during my urban explorations for graffiti inspirations. The building is picturesque, ...

USER: Write a forum convo where they look at the signs, which say "This cinema has now closed, Your nearest Odeon is in London, Thank you for your loyal patronage, Book tickets there by phone, by Sky Active or online at Odeon.co.uk" Sky Active no longer exists

CHATBOT: Title: Signs of Times Past: The Directional Signs at the Closed Odeon Cinema Forum: Urban Exploration UK Thread Creator: ShadowedCorners Date: April 5, 2023 ShadowedCorners: Greetings, urbex enthusiasts! I took a trip down to the abandoned Odeon Cinema that's been gathering dust since '05. Something that caught my eye was the signs directing to the nearest Odeon in London. They mention booking tickets by Sky Active, which is a blast from the past since that service doesn't exist anymore. It's like standing at the intersection of now and yesteryear. Anyone else notice these relics? TimeCapsuler: Yes! I saw those signs last time I was there. It's a real throwback and sort of reinforces the fact that the cinema is trapped in the time it was closed. I wonder if others who might come across it not knowing wonder what Sky Active even was. TechHistoryBuff: Mentioning Sky Active certainly dates it, doesn't it? For those who don't know, Sky Active was an interactive service by Sky TV where you could do things like shopping, gaming, and indeed, booking cinema tickets. It was pretty innovative at the time but eventually got overtaken by internet services. Jen_on_the_move: I can't say I've seen them, but I love how signs like these are a miniature history lesson. It's interesting the lengths they went to, to retain their customers even as that particular branch was closing. Gives you a bit of insight into the efforts they had to make pre-the ubiquity of smartphones. SignSpotter: Snapped a picture of those signs. It felt weird seeing the outdated ways to book tickets. Makes you appreciate the tech we have today. It's cool, though, that they thanked their loyal patrons. Wished more businesses had that kind of touch when closing. ChronicNostalgia: The signs are quite bittersweet, really. They're trying to guide you to continue your cinema-going experience elsewhere, but the "Thank you for your loyal patronage" hits differently when you know there's no coming back. Especially standing in front of an abandoned relic where I have so many memories. AbandonedArtifacts: It's a symptom of a world that's constantly evolving. One could almost see those signs as a symbol of the cinema itself trying to hold on to relevance in an age it was not built for. If anyone's going in for a closer look, please be careful! While it's good to preserve history with photos and discussions, it's crucial to respect the property and prioritize safety. ScreenSaver: Those signs would actually make a ...

CHATBOT: Title: Sad News: Odeon Cinema XYZ to Close Down Thread started by MovieBuff2005 on 22nd June 2005 at 2:07 PM MovieBuff2005: Hey fellow moviegoers, Has anyone else heard the news about the Odeon near London that's closing next week? It's such a huge blow to our community of cinema enthusiasts. The readograph has already been changed to "GOODBYE FOREVER", which just breaks my heart every time I walk past it. Cinephile76: Yeah, I saw it yesterday. This is incredibly sad! I've been going to that cinema since I was a kid. Do you know why it's closing? ProjectorPaul: It's all about the money, I suppose. These classic cinemas can't compete with the new multiplexes that are popping up everywhere. I'll miss the charm of the place. Nothing beats the nostalgia of our old Odeon. PopcornLover: This is tragic. I had my first date with my wife there, and now it's disappearing. What will happen to the building? Does anyone know? VintageFilmFan: Apparently, it's set to be redeveloped into some retail space or possibly luxury flats, or so I've heard. It seems history and sentiment don't stand a chance against the property value in London. ReelMemories: Does anyone fancy organizing a final meetup to catch a movie there before it closes? It might be a nice way to say adieu to our beloved cinema. BFI_Fanatic: Count me in @ReelMemories. It's the least we can do. Let's give the Odeon the send-off it deserves. Maybe we can watch a classic film, something old school in keeping with the spirit of the place? PopcornLover: I'm up for the meetup. It would be a fitting tribute. How about 'Casablanca'? Seems appropriate for a goodbye. MovieBuff2005: @ReelMemories, @BFI_Fanatic, @PopcornLover: That's a fantastic idea! 'Casablanca' would be perfect. Let's get as many people on board. Also, should we maybe start a petition or something? Perhaps we can't save it, but it might be nice to at least show how much it means to us all. SilverScreenDiva: I'd join the petition and the meetup. Might as well go out with a bang, right? If anyone is organizing something, please let me know. ClassicCinemaLover: This is breaking news to me. I'm in for a last hurrah. That Odeon is where my love for cinema began. I'll bring along anyone I can convince to join. AdminNoticeBoard: Due to the interest in this topic, the forum admins have decided to pin this thread. Please keep all discussions regarding the Odeon closing and meetup plans here. Let's make sure that this part of our cinematic history gets a prope...

USER: Write a follow up on the final day, the final night begins with The Matrix, then Terminator, then a few classic films going up years (so BTTF would be followed by Jaws) before it ends on Casablanca (Because of it being a fitting way of saying goodbye). Closure notices saying "We are now closed, your nearest Odeon is in London, Thank you for your loyal patronage, Book via phone, by Sky Active or online at Odeon.co.uk Thank you"

CHATBOT: Title: The Last Reel: Farewell Odeon XYZ - Final Night Recap Thread started by MovieBuff2005 on 29th June 2005 at 11:45 PM MovieBuff2005: And that's a wrap, folks. Our beloved Odeon XYZ has officially closed its doors. The final night was an emotional rollercoaster with a fantastic lineup of movies. We kicked off with 'The Matrix', then on to 'Terminator', each film taking us further back in cinematic history. Cinephile76: It was an incredible journey! Watching 'Back to the Future' and then 'Jaws' on the big screen was like traveling through time. So many memories flooding back with every frame. VintageFilmFan: And ending with 'Casablanca'... I don't think there was a dry eye in the house. "Here's looking at you, kid." That line has never felt more poignant than it did tonight in that soon-to-be-gone cinema. PopcornLover: It was truly special to see such a crowd come together. The closure notices were everywhere, reminding us to keep the passion for cinema alive. "We are now closed, your nearest Odeon is in London, Thank you for your loyal patronage, Book via phone, by Sky Active or online at Odeon.co.uk Thank you" - quite bittersweet but a necessary reality check, I suppose. ReelMemories: Not going to lie, I got a bit teary-eyed when they put that final notice up. So much of my love for film was born in that place. Thank you all for showing up and making this night memorable. BFI_Fanatic: This is not just the closing of a cinema, it's the end of an era. But we made sure it went out with dignity. The passion for film in that theatre was palpable tonight. I hope the new Odeon locations can live up to what we've had here. ProjectorPaul: Can't believe it's all over. I snapped some pics throughout the evening. Seems fitting to document the last hours of our storied cinema. If anyone wants copies, let me know. They're bittersweet, but treasured mementos of our local film community. SilverScreenDiva: I'd love some pictures, @ProjectorPaul. It would be great to have something by which to remember the place. Tonight was so special, celebrating decades of film history together. ClassicCinemaLover: Kudos to everyone who came. We really showed what this theatre meant to us. Maybe one day, somehow, it could come back - you know, like one of those revival cinemas? AdminNoticeBoard: As a reminder, this thread will be kept open for reminiscing and sharing photos or stories of Odeon XYZ. Though the curtains have closed, this community remains a place to share our love fo...
