Went to see Moneyball at the AMC in Rockaway, and it was great!!! Text was sharp on screen and the sound was awesome. Only thing that I noticed was that the brigtness was set at medium to allow fluid action without showing any artifacts. A sign near the lobby warns customers not to bring any chinese food to the theater. Hahahaha.
Hakuna Matata!!! The Lion King 3D and 2D digital release was number one at the box office again for the first time in 17 years, grossing nearly $30 million, beating out Contagion to second place. The last time Simba and friends invaded rockaway was when the Rockaway 12 theater opened. Thankfully Rockaway is showing the 2D HD bluray version of the film so that people with tidy pockets can see the movie the way it was meant to be seen. Advance tickets for the first part of the final chapter in the Twilight Saga go on sale in October. I can’t wait to see Moneyball in Sony 4k at this theater. I love baseball, so I’m sure I’ll check it out.
This is the entrance to the AMC Rockaway 16. An arch-like entrance reminsicent of the Paramount pictures gates welcomes visitors to the theater. Inside the theater, there is a star-like light fixture. A tree outside the theater provides a nature atmosphere. The left and right sides of the entrance provide advance ticket sales in addtion to the lobby.
About three IMAX releases are playing at this theater on one screen, i think that’s a record. Transformers 3D, Harry Potter 7.2 3D, and Kung Fu Panda 2 3D are now showing.
The next IMAX digital showing will be Contagion, the bird flu movie. According to IMDB, it was shot on a Red camera, which means higher resolution. Speaking of IMAX, transformers 3 is being re-released in IMAX 3D for a two week run. I’ve checked showtimes for Friday and found none. Maybe AMC will publish showtimes on Friday. I went to see 30 minutes or less in 4k two nights ago. Although I came in a bit late with my friend to see the movie, i sat a bit close to the screen. The photography was a bit blurry, but the credits were sharp at the end. Sound was great too.
At least AMC is still the largest employer in Kansas City.
Clearview has renamed the 3 screener the Kinnelon Arts Centre while the 8 screener is still called Kinnelon.

Looks like they installed Digital IMAX in this theater for Contagion this weekend. What screen is it? Is it as big as rockaway?
On this day 10 years ago, this theater was severely damaged. It would take several months before the theater reopened.
Theater will reopen this saturday, according to fandango.
originally the general cinema sign was in this theater.
This is the side entrance to the theater, which was added when the theater expanded from 8 to 14 screens in 1997. The sign is still intact.
