Mako7915 commented about Oakville Town Centre Cinemas on Mar 9, 2022 at 4:40 pm

This cinema’s final day was July 19, 2001. Its final movies were A.I.: Artificial Intelligence, The Fast and The Furious, Cats & Dogs, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Pootie Tang, Scary Movie 2, and Shrek (only one without digital sound). I believe it failed because of heavy competition with AMC Winston Churchill and SilverCity Mississauga nearby.

The 2001 closure’s final films were Calle 54, The Fast and the Furious, Bridget Jones’s Diary, The Mummy Returns, Baby Boy, Dr. Dolittle 2, Anniversary Party, and Memento.

I was referring to the IMAX theatre. I probably should have given that context.

Its IMAX theatre opened on June 4, 2004, with its first film being Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Its final film was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on October 13, 2005. I think it was short-lived because of Cineplex’s acquisition of this cinema and because it did not do well.

The cinema’s opening movies include The Bear, Family Business, Blaze, We’re No Angels, All Dogs Go to Heaven and The Little Mermaid. Its final day was March 8, 2001, with its closing movies including Dracula 2000, Unbreakable, Head Over Heels, Meet the Parents, 102 Dalmatians, and Vertical Limit. I know it re-opened in 2013 as York Cinemas, but I don’t know specifically since no Toronto newspaper I looked at mentions it.

Mako7915 commented about 410 & 7 Centre Cinemas on Jan 29, 2022 at 11:41 am

This cinema’s opening movies include Wild at Heart, Flatliners, Pump Up the Volume, and Don’t Tell Her It’s Me. All of them were presented in Dolby Stereo. Its final day was February 15, 2001. Its final movies were Dude, Where’s My Car?, Vertical Limit (Digital), The Family Man, and Charlie’s Angels (Digital). There are no late-night showtimes (9 or 10 pm), which I guess was standard for a theatre that’s about to close.

Mako7915 commented about Centre Laval on Jan 29, 2022 at 11:16 am

This cinema’s final movies include Les Invasions Barbares, The Matrix: Reloaded, Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd, Bruce Almighty, Alex et Emma, From Justin to Kelly, La Matrice: Rechargée, Rugrats: Go Wild, Alex & Emma, Homicide à Hollywood, 2 Fast 2 Furious, and Bruce le Tout Puissant. I believe that Famous Players closed this one because they focused more on the Colossus nearby and avoided competition from Cinémas Guzzo’s Méga-Plex Pont-Viau.

Mako7915 commented about Landmark Cinemas Windsor on Jan 29, 2022 at 11:06 am

This cinema’s opening movies include Scream 2, FairyTale: A True Story, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, Flubber, The Jackal, The Rainmaker, Bean, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and Alien: Resurrection. The IMAX theatre’s first film was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 in IMAX 3D. According to some reports about this cinema’s closure, people, even before the pandemic, were going more to the nearby Cineplex Odeon Devonshire Mall because of the recliner seats, D-BOX, and UltraAVX. Cineplex is now talking with IMAX about relocating SilverCity’s installation to Devonshire Mall.

In 2021, Cineplex re-opened this theatre for second-run and foreign films. Nothing much has changed between the initial closure and the re-opening.
