I have some vague nostalgic memories of those marquees, they started going out of fashion in the 90s. Nice poll idea.

What a good idea! And some of the images are great: I miss those marquees. Luckily, two of the small, independent theaters in my city still have them.

Due to increasing crime and urban decay in my country, these types of cinemas all but disappeared by the mid to late 90s. We have 2 large and 1 smaller cinema chains here; 99% of the screens belong to one of them. They are based in shopping malls and some other entertainment complexes, like casino complexes. I also miss hiring VHS and DVSs from the local rental store. One became friends with the management and staff; they got to know customers' tastes and would recommend films... "you'll love this slasher / sci-fi / mindf**k thriller..." I guess I'm officially old at 43. 😂
