The Last Picture Show

    The 13 June 2001 was a sad day for the Odeon, Aberdeen. From being the first purpose-built cinema in the city it has been wiped out and replaced by a fitness club!! The last film was 'The Mummy Returns'.

      Cheers! I am a massive cinema fan. This is one of many I have of my beloved Aberdeen cinemas - did you know a new Odeon is being built on Market St, Aberdeen? Part of a new shopping complex called Union Square
