Today’s pictures capture the VIP ribbon cutting (for theatres it’s film) of two spring openings from the past.
May 1997 opening of the AMC Fullerton expansion to twenty screens.

May 2003 opening of the Krikorian Buena Park Metroplex 18.

The Fullerton VIP night was a standard AMC corporate affair; involving dry speeches and a modestly catered dinner in the courtyard. In stark contrast, the Buena Park VIP night was quite the social event; industry/city dignitaries, champagne, open bar, sushi chef, gourmet buffet, luxurious “swag” bags, and a live big band.
