Some of that footage looked an awful lot like Sharpstown Mall, but I suspect all malls looked the same anyway. Now it's Plazamericas, 'hispanic themed', and has indoor flea markets and Spanish speaking clowns making balloon animals while you eat elote. Whenever I'm not broke, I may go get a tailored sharkskin suit. There's a nice retro video game store in there that I suspect is a laundering front. I have NEVER seen anyone buy anything in that place. Galleria still doing well and it's hilarious to see companies set up shop and think, "this is what those rich idiots want." Shops with 2 purses on display, or the place with Russian teenagers pushing caviar. Apple store is a damn madhouse, though. People begging for money outside Neiman Marcus is a nice touch. Every now and then a black supremacist tells me I'm a white devil at the crosswalk. :cheers: |

The footage I see of it now....ugh. |

We actually had an Alamo Drafthouse in a mall in Houston shut down because nobody went. :dizzy: |

The 80s mall by me was pretty awesome, they had a couple of cool water fountains, a nice arcade, a movie store, KB Toys, Music Land, and a bitchin food court. Not to mention a two floor Yonkers, Boston Store, and Sears all of which are closed now. The water fountains turned into ---smurfy--- cell phone Kiosks. and of course the Arcade closed its doors in the early 2000s. I remember the arcade having a Mortal Kombat, Captain Comando, Primal Rage, X-men Children of the Atom, Smash TV, Turtles, A four slot Neo Geo, later a MK2 and Killer Instinct. First time I saw MK in person. It was pretty shocking for an 11 year old. |
