This was my least favorite theater in Times Square; I wish Cinema Treasures had been around from the late 70s to the late 90s, then I may have appreciated this house a lot more than I did.
I was thinking about you, Ed, when I drove by yesterday and wondering what in the world is going on; the blade seems to be gone but it’s hard to get a good look through all the scaffolding wrappings, etc.
There is also something odd about the photo posted on April 3, 2022: Was the “Why pay more” signage up during the end times of the Brandt theaters? If so, I must have missed that last bit of showmanship…
Interesting link (7/5/22) to the proposed “wraparound“ apartment building but in the three photos in the article, I couldn’t see where the Vista fit into the design.
Bad news
Big Joe, you used to be so humble, it looks like you finally grew a pair…
However, this particular multiplex has all the charm of a bus station.
Please don’t forget the poor neglected step-child Trans-Lux East aka Penthouse (Caligula!) and then the Gotham …
And yet the Alamo chain, who act like cinema-maniacs, seem to make the dining experience work.
How…odd.
According to their website, the wax museum is still located at 234 W. 42nd Street.
If they don’t own the site and had a 25 year lease, I bet the renewal rent has gone through the roof.
Any news on this house?
I wonder if the state attorney general is that interested in this matter, especially since she currently has bigger fish to fry…
Once the new management dropped the Hedda Lettuce classic film series, the Chelsea cinemas was dead to me.

Because they’re not thinking with their big head…
Plenty of empty seats at every showing!
Isn’t that the Loew’s State marquee? (Pre-modernization)
And what a glorious movie! It must have been really eye-popping on the big screen.
Such a dignified ad for such a madcap production.

And why in the world they ever take down those blade letters, this place sure looks like a dump compared to the new Regal a few blocks away

So take that, Ed…! You’ve been schooled.
Is this movie really an appropriate Christmas release for the Music Hall?
The Gray Man was in theaters, a few hundred sites for a week or two.
Unfortunately for Netflix, this $200 million movie was DOA.
