Ritz Cinemas
West Valley City, Utah
Carmike Cinemas opened the Ritz Cinemas and Hollywood Connection Family Entertainment Center on 20 November 1998. The 165,000-square-foot complex was part of an “entertainment mecca” which included the Hale Centre Theatre and the West Valley City E Center (now the Maverick Center.) In addition to 15 movie screens, the Hollywood Connection included a carousel, roller coaster, bumper cars, miniature golf, skating, arcade, restaurant, ice cream parlor, and laser tag. Carmike's goal was to have enough entertainment under one roof so families wouldn't have to go around town.

New Drive-in to Open Friday Night at Monticello
Times Independent, 27 May 1954, page 1
The Nu-Vu Drive-In theatre at Monticello will open this Friday evening, showinbg “Branded.” This drive-in was promoted and owned by Wallace and E. P. Corbin, E. R. Carter, and Max Dalton.
Monticello is justly proud of the new drive-in and no doubt many of the Moab friends of the backers of this venture will be on hand for the “Grand Opening.” The location is on the mountain road next to the Warner ranger station in Monticello.
