I was always told that it had more children kidnapped there than any other mall. It was because of the I-20 on ramp right by the mall. Any truth to this or just a Monroe urban legend?
I'm going with urban legend. No locals ever flipped out about kidnapping nor were any ever reported on local news.

I bought many a baseball card and watched many a movie in that mall growing up.

All existing malls passing certain minimal criteria should be placed on the historic registry and preserved. A damn shame how so many have died out.

That’s it, I couldn’t remember the name. I loved that place.

I bought a Greg Jefferies Mets Rookie card at that stand. I only remember that because $5 was a lot for 8 year old me to spend on a card.

I believe Cardco was the name of the card shop that was a kiosk.

Solid list… just off the top of my head:
Little Mermaid
Home Alone
Rocketeer
Hook
My Girl
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves
Forrest Gump
…. Lots more.
The Pecanland Mall was a fine place to hang out back in the day.

If it was a kiosk, my friend’s owned that. They’d give me good bundle deals. I had a few hundred comics in the 90’s. I still have a bunch in boxes that I have nothing to do with.
I don’t think I ever went to the mall without stopping here. When they moved to 18th, I used to ride my bike there almost every day during the summer.

It was a store adjacent to the food court. I can’t remember the name of it though, not a kiosk.
This one opened after the one in the kiosk moved over to 18th.
