This theatre’s opening movies include XXX: State of Union, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Dear Frankie, A Lot Like Love, Sahara, and Sin City. Also, you’re right, Jason. This project was long behind schedule.

Does anyone know why this theatre didn’t open with an IMAX theatre? They totally could have made one in the same position as the other Colossus theatres. Guzzo wouldn’t have one until much later, so what’s the deal?

Spectrum Entertainment commented about Landmark Pen Centre on Sep 11, 2021 at 7:01 pm

What I meant was that I couldn’t find any photographic evidence that it was branded as a “SilverCity,” as the only photos I could find are its Empire and Landmark years.

Spectrum Entertainment commented about Regal Times Square on Aug 7, 2021 at 9:23 am

This cinema is still open despite its location being just across from AMC Empire 25. In my opinion, it doesn’t make any sense. I kinda relate this rivalry to Colossus Vaughan vs AMC Interchange 30 or AMC Ontario Mills 30 vs Regal Edwards Ontario Palace 21.

This theatre’s seat count when it opened was 2988. Unfortunately, I don’t know its count after UltraAVX was installed. It also cost CA$4.5 million to build. I got all this info from a Toronto Star article on December 5, 1997, comparing megaplex theatres to cruise ships.

Please change the name to “Cineplex Cinemas Southland.” Cineplex likes to streamline the “Cineplex Cinemas” brand.

This theatre was responsible for closing the nearby Famous Players/Cinemas Fortune StarCite. Somehow this theatre got more popular.

This theatre opened on April 16, 1981. Its opening movies were Tribute, The Jazz Singer, Stir Crazy, Melvin (and Howard), Airplane, The Changeling, The Incredible Shrinking Woman, Popeye, Superman, Flash Gordon, Breaker Morant, and Rockers. I have no idea what exact date this theatre closed because I want to know its final (second-run) movies.

This Cineplex Odeon theatre opened on August 4, 1986. Its opening movies were Back to School (Dolby Stereo), Out of Bounds, Haunted Honeymoon (Dolby Stereo), Howard the Duck (Dolby Stereo), Mona Lisa, and Nothing in Common. Also, please change the name to Imagine Cinemas Promenade as Cadillac Fairview no longer owns the mall.

Before the 2003 Toronto International Film Festival began, this theatre’s final movies were Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Open Range, and Uptown Girls. By the time it closed, it had limited manual wheelchair access.

Spectrum Entertainment commented about Eaton Centre Cinemas on Feb 11, 2021 at 6:56 pm

This famous theatre opened on April 19, 1979, and it was the first theatre Cineplex made. Its opening movies include The Tree of Wooden Clogs, The Shout, Tommy, Newsfront, A Purple Taxi, Rain and Shine, Queen of the Gypsies, and The Rubber Gun. These were pretty obscure movies back in the day. It closed on March 14, 2001. On the day before, its last films include Sugar & Spice, Wonder Boys, All the Pretty Horses, Best in Show, Unbreakable, Head over Heels, Antitrust, Dracula 2000, 102 Dalmatians, The Family Man (Digital), Dude, Where’s My Car?, Vertical Limit (Digital), Proof of Life, Charlie’s Angels, and Meet the Parents. Except for The Family Man and Vertical Limit, all movies used Dolby SR instead of digital sound. In my opinion, the closure news, while sad for many, was not shocking at all. I blame its age and small space more than Famous Players Paramount or any newer cinema. The good news is that I think Cineplex Yonge-Dundas will remain for a long while due to its location. Wishing Cineplex the best of luck in this pandemic.
