Cinepolis Succasunna

what’s the latest on the classics? What movies will be playing there? I hope they show “The Matrix” next year since it’s the 10th anniversary of that movie!!!

Looks like the movie that I mentioned last post will still be playing for quite some time as it is the number 1 movie in America during a Super Bowl weekend. This is a message to all theaters wanting a piece of the 3D action. Take that, Beowulf!!! Both this theater, as well as Parsippany and select Clearviews, will play “Hanna Montana 3D” until the audience peters out.

this coming spring the classics will return, I found it out via the website….recently i went to this theater attending a showing of National Treasure: Book of Secrets in the DLP auditorium, which is in theater #9. The presentation was flawless, although I recommend sitting back for maximum clarity. The projection was provided by Technicolor Digital, which is the same company that will install more clearview cinemas other than this one and parsippany with the same equipment. BTW, are the screens capable of projecting 4k?

just checked the website for succasunna, and beowulf was still showing in 3d. My bad. parsippany will still play beowulf in 3d while succasunna plays THe Golden Compass on the DLP screen in plain old 2d.

Just went to this theater to see Fred Claus on Friday night, and the place was not that packed!!! Seems like the lack of a 3d showing of Beowulf was to blame, as the film is being shown only in 2d. I went to theater 5, the largest of the 10 screens, and the seats are more comfortable than the last time I was there nearly two years ago. Sound is still Dolby Digital EX, and projection is still decent with the digital preshow. The prices, though, were stupid. Tickets went up to $10.25, and the Super Combo is a dollar and a half more than it was nearly two years ago. Plus they use real popcorn instead of the kernelless popcorn that AMC uses. The acoustics are not on par with Rockaway 16, with sound still bleeding into the other theater.

Just went to this theater for the first time in a few months to see “Chuck and Larry” in theater #1, and boy, they changed the preshow to digital from film to save time and money. The slide show is pretty cool, too. It’s much sharper and it’s mostly Cablevision with a touch of Verizon (cellphones, thankfully) in it. The crowd was half full, the sound and projection were top-notch. Too bad the parking is smaller than the rival AMC in Rockaway or its sister theater, the Parsippany 12-plex. Unlke AMC, Clearview cuts out the green bands before each trailer to seam each preview into each other, which is a strange move indeed. After the movie was over, me and my SCARC group left as the rains came in that Friday night, which was more exciting than the movie!!!

I actually remember both renovations…. barely remember when the opening was on the side of the building and it was a 4-plex.

Then in the early 1990’s with the expansion (the addition of the 2 upstairs theaters) and now with the “mirror image” wing on the other side.

odd, I’ve been to Cinema 10 many times since the newest renovation and never saw a movie in thew new wing.

Too bad Spidey 3 isn’t showing in DLP in Succasunna since Meet the Robinsons is still playing in the digital auditorium (which I guess is located in the same screen where the RWC system was installed), letting the webslinger play only in good old 35mm film.

Sorry moderators, I’m so sick of these questions. Why don’t you call up HQ or the theatre and ask them!!!

Justin…no on Rockaway and digital 3-D. In addition to the two venues you cited, the other Clearview venues showing “Meet The Robinsons in digital 3-D are the MIDDLEBROOK 10 in Ocean Township, NJ and the ZIEGFELD in Manhattan and CENTRAL PLAZA in Yonkers, NY.

First time since 1994 that I’ve seen a movie here. Saw “Blades of Glory” here yesterday. I love the new shape of the building. The centerpiece of the angle is blue and is a faux Art Deco. Auditorium #10 was room, comfy seats and high ceilings with lit up aisles. My father was extremely pissed about the “senior” discount was $7.50 for a matinee. I would’ve been too. I miss the old Cinema 10 because it was all red brick with white detail and the box office was outside. I miss the old carpet and running up the side stairs to the balcony. It’s not the same, but it looks nice anyway.

Went back to this theater with a group of young adults from the SCARC “Yacht Club” program (designed for young adults 18+ to go on trips like this one) after going to several Rockaway showings and the difference is huge. The projection and sound were excellent, there were no pre-show ads (maybe Clearview is getting ready to roll out the digital pre-show after that huge extension with Screenvision), and the seating remained the same the last time I visited there. Clearview is doing a good job for their moviegoing program. Rather than just get points off of tickets, I can get points off buying concessions, too. Plus tickets here are a bit cheaper than AMC’s, and they have a classics program. After the monstrosity that was AMC Rockaway 16, Succasunna is still alive.

Did anyone go see “Raiders of the Lost Ark” at the cinema this weekend? How was the print and sound?
