STROUDSBURG, PA — The last day for the AMC Loews Stroud Mall 7 was December 12. The theater opened in the late 1970’s as a triplex; over the years additional screens were added including two in another part of the mall. Cinemark plans to open a new twelve-screen multiplex by Thanksgiving 2012 that will occupy this theater’s main space and that currently occupied by some stores.
The story appeared in the Pocono Record (registration may be required).

This was an ok theater….. no stadium seating in all screens, one screen had DTS surround sound while others had dolby, and there were two separate places for the theaters, one of which had five screens and one with two. I can remember going there awhile ago to see ‘Catch Me If You Can’ and there was this rowdy moviegoer who complained about the seats, my dad asked the manager about it and the person in charge of the theater took them out of the theater. With Cinemark opening up shop in 2012, it would be the closest location that the third largest theater chain in america has opened near a major metro city.
Huh? Cinemark has theaters in or very near a number of major urban centers: Sacramento (downtown), San Francisco (downtown), Dallas, Salt Lake City, San Antonio, Long Beach, and several others.
Sorry yu guys are getting a Cinemark
