Reply to comment by ChewML in I miss The Palace theater by iced-macchiato
North Town, Town & Country, Tower Theater (now Alice 95.5 radio station in the Plaza Shopping Center)...
The Battlefield Mall used to have 2 theaters... there was the main Battlefield Mall theater in the food court, and then there was Century 21, which was on the Glenstone-facing side of the mall, where Ethan Allen is now. Both Century 21 and Tower Theater each only had 1 screen.

Are you sure it only had one screen? I remember watching movies at the mall in the 90's a few times, and I swear the theater had like 3 screens? Could be a false memory though.

I thought I remembered Century 21 having two screens, but I Googled it earlier and found stuff saying that it indeed had only one. Wehrenberg Cinema 6 in the food court had 6 screens. And as he mentioned, there were two other theaters near the mall that had three screens: Fremont 3 and Petite 3.
Of all these theaters, the one that I have the fewest memories of is Petite 3.

I think this is the one I'm remembering. Definitely near the food court.
I had no idea there were so many different theaters in the mall. What a different time.

I remember having to eat chikfila a few times because it was next to.the theater and we had to rush. Back before people went so nuts over it and it was just mediocre fast food.

My mom took me to my very first movie in a theater at the tower theater. We saw the 90’s “Casper the friendly ghost.”
