So popular was FunAsiA that it opened a second location in Irving and another in Houston. The other three theaters were turned into an Indian dance club called Ghungroo and restaurant as well as space/banquet hall for weddings and special events opening in December of 2002. With a growing Southern Asian population in the area, FunAsiA took on the theater and with a $1.6 million overhaul, turned the three theaters on the building’s west side to show new releases from Bollywood and had video capabilities for special events and weddings. But good news was ahead for the GCC Richardson. Two weeks later, only the Irving Mall remained open as GCC was on life support in DFW.
The remaining DFW GCC theaters getting an endorsement and staying open were the GCC Galleria, Furneaux Creek and Irving Mall. Features were removed from the attraction board even before the showtimes of the final showings of “Almost Famous,” Chicken Run,” and four other films were scheduled to play. With no new product or advertising, the closing was not unexpected and all shows after 5:00p cancelled that final evening for a quick-as-possible closing. Unfortunately, drawing the short straw was the GCC Richardson 6. GCC closed all three remaining Tarrant Country locations with the Arlington Square 8, Central Park 8, and Ridgmar and kept three of four Dallas County locations operating. But Black Thursday hit on Octo– just one day shy of the theater’s ninth anniversary. The Richardson was chugging along even after a rash of GCC closings in 1998. GCC was able to have overflow parking at neighboring Mervyn’s Department Store with signage directing folks there.

With all of the movie traffic across the street and more buildings sandwiched in, parking became tight for the Richardson. The mall cinema came close closing in April of 1995. The Richardson 6 did have at least one thing going for it: as one newspaper critic said, the theaters were an improvement over the Richardson Square Mall Cinema triplex but “almost anything would be.” And the theater was the “A” house while the Richardson Square Mall III became the subrun discount house trying to get to the end of its 20-year lease. The theater launched on Octowith “Turner & Hooch”, “An Innocent Man,” “Night Game,” “In Country,” “Batman,” and “Dead Poet’s Society.” The new six-plex would be loosely patterned after a Town East GCC Theater and fairly similar to the Collin Creek Mall theater to the northwest in Plano. (GCC) signed a lease for a 25,442-square-foot six-screen movie theater across the street from the Richardson Square Mall where it had been operating an aging three-screen theater since October of 1977. The three-screen theater played contemporary Hindi, Telegu, Tamil, and some English language films while the FunAsiA hosted events ranging from live concerts, beauty pageants, cricket viewing, weddings, and parties.īacking up to August of 1988, General Cinema Corp. The operators transformed a moribund six-screen theater which had been open just nine years (1989-1998) into a vibrant cultural destination that proved to be a success beginning in late 2002 and running into the mid-2010s as of this writing.
