Here's when each decade appears in the trailer. 1910s (Nickelodeons): Opening 1920s (Silent Movies): No Talking 1930s (Musicals): Refreshment Center 1940s (Film Noir): No Smoking 1950s (Widescreen/Cheesy B-Movies): Gift Certificates 1960s (Hippie Culture): Art Gallery 1970s (Disco): Rent Our Theater 1980s (Space): Deposit Trash
I think 1994/95. Ironically, some suggest 1915 as the birth of cinema as well. www.theguardian.com/film/2015/aug/24/why-cinema-came-of-age-100-years-ago
Thanks for the correction, I should've said 1915 but it slipped as I just looked that link up (got too used to this century). Prior to 1915, motion picture was still this quaint, small novelty often seen in those venues. This was the era of the Lumieres and other pioneers that invented/perfected the medium we know today.
I used to work at Showcase Theater in North Attleboro , MA Thanks for the memories ! Such fun times
He's just gone through a whole century in a minute! A miracle!

Christopher Sobieniak Correction: 1915. Around that time I believe motion pictures moved out of the Nickelodeons and into the bigger halls.
