Field Report: Florida Update (excluding Tampa) by JaxBchBum
Doc here with an outstanding update on the non-Tampa adult theater scene in Florida, courtesy of senior Journal reporter, JaxBchBum.
There is lots to digest here, so sit back, order a mojito, and soak it all in.

Doc,
As promised, here is some additional theatre information for the database. One bit of information you might consider adding is the phone number for the theatre. There have been a number of times where I have arrived at a theatre only to find they have closed, closed for renovation, gay night or some other circumstance that made the trip a total waste of time.
Theatre X (formerly Pure Pleasures Mega-Store) 6802 NE US Highway 301, Hawthorne FL 32640 - located at the intersection of FL 26 and US 301 Mailing address is listed as Hawthorne FL, but actually located closer to Orange Heights FL and is about 12 miles east of the Gainesville Regional airport. Hours are: M-Th - 9am - midnight; Friday & Sat: 9 am to 2 am; Sunday, 11am to 11pm. Adult store with DVDs for sale/rent; novelties, an arcade and theatre. Theatre admission is free for couples at all times and $20 for singles with supposedly a 6 hour time limit but have never seen it enforced. In/out privileges. Small theatre with 3 rows of 2/3 person couches as well as about 6 chairs scattered about; no dedicated couples section. Theatre kept very clean and video quality is excellent. Couple friendly and laid back staff and no record of any law enforcement action. Tuesday night from 6 - midnight shows gay movies.
Palatka Adult Supercenter 3743 Reid Street Palatka FL 32177 - located in the SE corner of the intersection of FL 100 and FL 19. (386) 326-3559, Theatre hours are Mon - Sat from 9am to 1:00 but sometimes they close the theatre at 12:30 to start cleaning. Sunday hours from 11am - 11pm. Long established adult store with DVDs, novelties, arcade but the theatre has only been in place for about 18 months. Free admission for couples and $6.50 for singles with in/out privileges all day. Small theatre with an unusual configuration. 2 and 3-person couches along the back walk with the 2-person couch in a recessed alcove. Another 3-4 person couch placed on a side wall so little privacy for the other couches and that seems to have affected the rate of couples coming in to the theatre and playing - so no dedicated couples section.. The rest of the seating is approximately 16 high-back heavy plastic outdoor chairs. Theatre kept clean and video quality is very good. They show a series of 4 movies each day, with one usually being a bi- or fetish movie. No record of any law enforcement action despite being less than a half-mile from the Sheriff's offices. Laid back staff and very couple friendly (even saw a lady walking around the store nude one night while hubby was taking pics).
Foxes Cinema, 3009 Victory Drive, Columbus GA 31903 (706) 689-2211 Theatre hours are: Monday - Thursday 10am - midnight (but subject to early closing if not many people) 10 am - 12:30 Friday and Saturday; Sunday from 10 - 9pm. Single admission is $8 and ladies are admitted free. Promises for a major theatre remodeling but has not happened although they did a major remodel of the store including arcade at the end of 2010. Mid-sized theatre with about 45 seats with large open area at the back. No dedicated couples section.
Some comments on some of the other theatres currently listed:
Cinema Blue in B'ham AL theatre interior is in terrible condition. Roof leaks when it rains, many of the seat bottoms or entire seats missing; but it is the only game in town since the Screening Room got shut down several years ago.
Buford Hwy Twin Cinemas in Doraville GA - couples admitted free to theatre #1 that does have a dedicated couples section. Some busts took place here earlier this year after the theatre re-opened after being closed for several years. Only theatre in the north Georgia area.
Hope this is helpful. Stopped by Theatre X on Wed. night. Two couples came in while I was there. Older couple did some playing with each other but were inconsistent with wanting others to watch although everyone was respectful. Young couple (mid-30s) came in about 9:30 and she was dressed to play with a deep cut dress showing off big beautiful tits; but they never did anything. Think the older couple tried to hit on them as when younger couple left the older couple followed; but came back in about 10 minutes later.
Stopping by again Sat. evening so hope to have more productive report to give.

Thanks JBB for the great and detailed update from the non-Tampa adult theater scene in Florida. I will be adding the new details to the Dr. Emilio database sometime this week. Thank you sir!
Do you have an adult theater report? I hope so, because I am in dire need of more reports... Just e-mail your report to emiliolizardo1@gmail.com. I will edit and format your report... You just provide the words.
Thanks!
Doc
