Please update, became a twin on November 15, 1978, Quad on March 20, 1987 and a sixplex on November 22, 1989 Grand Opening ads in photos sections.

please update, became a sixplex on April 4, 1997 No grand opening ad

At markp, I uploaded the grand opening ad when it went to 8 screens on August 21, 1981 in the photos sections. I was researching from the New Jersey newspapers online.

Which screens had Dolby Stereo when you there and it was 70MM. When did Amboy finally go all Dolby in the 90’s.

Also, they only cut two theatres in half. The Sunrise in Valley Stream that open the same date, the cut 4 original auditoriums in half.

I was not a big fan of long bowling alley theatres, but that must of been a 1970 and 1980 thing to do. The newer theatres at least they build them better.

Thanks for the help, I’m familar with the seat counts of the Sunrise, when it open in 1979 for the orignal six each had 700 each.

Please update, theatre expanded to 15 screens on May 29, 1998 by the previous owners Majic Johnson Theatres (screens were expanded to the complex, similar to Danbury, Freehold and Monmouth expansions)
