THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. I can't tell you how much this video brought back memories. It sucks the old Famous Players shutdown in early 08, I have been looking all over the internet for pictures of it, the only thing I could find was a low res photo in a old pdf file.
I believe I heard that the movie theater that used to be in Oshawa Centre was called Famous Players, because if you remember, the Zellers building at Oshawa Centre used to have the Famous Players logo at the top right corner (somewhere around the 90s to mid 2000s I think?). But the Famous Players logo's no longer out there anymore, because I think the movie theater which used to be in Oshawa Centre was actually moved to a new Cineplex theatre up in north Oshawa on Taunton Road, and Zellers was shut down around New Year's Eve 2012 and New Year's Day 2013, by the way
You know, around the same year when you took this video, I was actually taking photos in high res of the Oshawa Centre. I might have even taken a photo of the La Château store as well. :) I have some really good pics of the City Diner too! :)
