It is there Vindanpar in the Roadshow disc. It is recorded weird you actually have to go in and choose which audio you want to use, Dolby Digital or DTS and on the Blu Ray menu not the disc menu

I remember the marquee with Olive on it was Orange. I wonder when they changed it

For me I think the RPX is a waste of money. Spending the extra money to see bars at the top and bottom of the screen is a waste.

Jojoa the previews at the Cinemark here were in scope. I thought that was weird. Yeah I went to You tube after the posts above. A few years back they showed a movie that was filmed in the rare 2.00 in 2.35 aspect ratio.

I thought The Lion King Live was 2.35 aspect ratio. All the previews were in scope. UGH

Status should be open at least until the closing on July 14. I hate that this theater is closing. My post from December 8, 2014 proved correct even though AMC has proven to be just as bad as Carmike in the theaters they took over from Carmike.

If I remember bigjoe59, the day it started was when they advertised now continuous performances. The three NJ theaters I referenced above were never roadshow engagements.

Hello Dolly definitely did. It also did at the Randolph in Philly.If I remember correctly, fox decided to make it continuous showings starting in June of 1970. When it opened at the Virginia in Atlantic City on June 24, 1970 it was continuous performances as was the Ocean in Wildwood, NJ and the Village Theater in Ocean City NJ.

This sounds like a rumor. Howard Haas you go there all the time did you hear this?

When I lived in NYC it was a first run house. Films I saw there were Dressed To Kill, La Cage Au Folles 2.

Cineworld took over this theater?

Do you think this is why Landmark closed the Sunshine?

Was it still a second run house?

I wish they would put the old marquee back instead of that red design.

Is there any word or information on how long this theater will be closed to do this really stupid redevelopment. Raising the theater to make retail space underneath is the most stupid idea I ever heard of. I can' only hope the building survives. It is a legend in Times Square.

Great locally owned theater that shows art fare documentaries and not mainstream blockbusters. They close the curtains ( both theaters are vertical top to bottom) at the end of each movie and they do the slide show for about 15 minutes or less than lower the curtains again before each film starts. Both theaters have masking that is at the top of screen and comes down for scope presentations.

Was this an antitrust issue and why Cinemark is taking over moviebuff82?

Great news. Awesome theater chain so much better and customer service oriented than AMC

Mikeoaklandpark commented about Palace Theatre on Jul 30, 2018 at 4:04 pm

The whole idea is a waste of time and money and a threat to one of Broadways finest theaters. That hotel is not even 30 years old. The theater was closed from 87-91 when they reopened with The Will Rogers Follies. What a waste. I can’t believe the Neederlanders agreed to this. They must not own the property. UGH

I did Wilburg 145. It was no different than all the other theaters on 42nd St. They were all sleezy even first run houses.
