Author Topic: What's the latest theatre to close or open you have heard about? Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-11-2005 06:51 PM                     A couple weeks ago (1 or 2) Patriot Cinemas in Salem, MA closed...  |  IP: Logged Mark Lensenmayer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1605 From: Upper Arlington, OH Registered: Sep 1999 posted 12-07-2005 07:49 AM                     Marquee Cinemas closed their 14-screen theatre in Reynoldsburg (Columbus) Ohio on Saturday, December 3, 2005. It had been opened since March, 2004. This was housed in a 1999 Regal site that was open for only 2 years. (Not a very successful site, so it seems!). The company had hoped to attract food franchises to vacant areas of the building, but was not successful. Newspaper listing ads are still running in the Columbus newspaper.  |  IP: Logged Joseph L.

This is the second closing of a 2D IMAX theater from the mid-90's within the past seven days (Western Fair IMAX in London, Ontario closed Nov. 30) On the bright side, two MPX theaters opened at CG CVJ cineplexes in South Korea on Dec. 1.  |  IP: Logged Jeffry L.

As of yet, there will be no cinemas in Caldwell, a population of almost 30,000 for the time being. But things could change with the advanced growth in this area-with the construction of a new freeway exit/overpass being built near this city.  |  IP: Logged Eric Hooper Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 532 From: Fort Worth, TX, USA Registered: May 2003 posted 12-14-2005 02:18 PM                     Just found out Regal is closing the UA GALAXY in San Francisco. Thur 12/15 is the last day.  |  IP: Logged Mike Croaro Master Film Handler Posts: 394 From: Millbrae, CA Registered: Apr 2005 posted 12-14-2005 03:45 PM                     Hi Eric: Sad to hear about the Galaxy. I have always enjoyed having a meal at Tommy's Joynt and catching a movie after. Mike  |  IP: Logged Joseph L. Kleiman Master Film Handler Posts: 380 From: Sacramento, CA Registered: Apr 2005 posted 12-14-2005 03:46 PM                     That sucks! The Galaxy's only three blocks from where I live. Hopefully they won't follow with the Metro.  |  IP: Logged Eric Hooper Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 532 From: Fort Worth, TX, USA Registered: May 2003 posted 12-15-2005 06:45 PM                     For the right price, they will. It's already a booking disaster as it is.  |  IP: Logged Don Furr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 509 From: Sun City, Ca USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 12-15-2005 07:33 PM                     Malco Theaters out of Memphis closed an old triplex in the McRaes Mall...Columbus Ms.....last Thursday night.

Actually, I find the seats at the Stonestown Twin quite comfortable. They just don't face the screen is all.  |  IP: Logged Dieter Depypere Master Film Handler Posts: 343 From: Deutsch-Wagram, Lower Austria, Austria Registered: May 2005 posted 12-18-2005 01:45 PM                     In Spittal/Drau (Austria) they are building a big mall with a cinema in it. It will be from the "Cineplexx" chain (which happens to have the majority of cinemas here in AUT). It will have 4 screens and a total of 540 seats. It will be opened in April 2006 and I will be projectionist there (at the weekends).  |  IP: Logged Paul Mayer Oh get out of it Melvin, before it pulls you under! Posts: 3836 From: Albuquerque, NM Registered: Feb 2000 posted 12-22-2005 08:30 PM                        Century opened their new 16 today at the South Coast casino, the latest of the Coast neighborhood casino properties. This one is at 9705 Las Vegas Blvd. So. - way way south. It will be the first large casino most people will see driving in from SoCal on I-15. And a very striking golden building it is, even the windows are coated with gold foil. There's also a 64-lane bowling center on site as well as a large equestrian exhibition center opening next month. Coast hopes to attract a mix of locals and tourists with this new place. Stations Casinos will have a new Regal multiplex opening at Redrock Station in April. And the Cannery Casino has a new multiplex in the works. Stations is planning another large casino property to be called Aliente Station in the extreme north part of the valley, scheduled to open in 2007. It too will have a 'plex.  |  IP: Logged
