I saw it during it's first run in 1977 at Menlo Park Cinema in Edison, NJ
The theater was torn down quite a few years ago. Saw Moonraker, and Star Trek the Motion Picture there too in 1979. In 1984/85 I worked there making popcorn and taking tickets.
This large theatre sat at the corner of US Route 1 and Parsonage Road in Edison, outside the Menlo Park Mall. It was one of Northern New Jersey’s large, prestigious theatres that was later twinned in the mid-70s. It played exclusive engagements of both “Star Wars” and “The Empire Strikes Back”, in 70mm.
It was demolished after Cineplex Odeon opened a 12-screen multiplex theatre in the newly rebuilt Menlo Park Mall around late 1991.
