ok -it seems E-walk on 42 gets it as well.
Apparently this is getting the 9 film star wars marathon—and midtown isn’t??
Actually Long Shot and The Intruder are alternating screenings in Theater 1 and 4 with The Avengers 10:00 AM show in Theater 1. Info obtained from Fandango.
Maybe they are squeezing in a screening of Avengers
Hello-
why does this theater have an absurdly long time between the 8:35a.m. and 1:40p.m.showings of Long Shot?
This theater now has 883 seats: 104, 118, 149, 167, 169 and 176 seats (not including wheelchair spots).
On this date 30 years ago coming to America debuted. It became one of Eddie Murphy’s biggest hits.
The theater is called AMC, not AMC Loews.
Last night a man’s leg got swallowed by the escalator. Thankfully New York’s finest helped the man get out of the jam.
I remember when Back to the Future played there for almost 5 months in 1985. Not often now in 2017 that a movie plays at a theater for that length of time.
It was Thanksgiving Day weekend 1992 that I was home from Florida from college for the weekend. The movie I saw that weekend was Disney’s Aladdin!
I remember on 8/18/85, I got home from sleep away camp from being away for 7 weeks and couldn’t wait to get back to see a movie at the theater. I had my parents take me straight to the theater from the camp pick up site. The movie I saw in this night was Summer Rental with John Candy!

Loew’s Circuit recently opened their Loews 84th Street Six in New York.
The state-of-the-art theatre has a computer controlled air-conditioning system and a message center which hangs under the marquee.
Two electronic mini marquees in the lobby direct patrons to the proper auditioriums.
The theatre is equipped with 70mm and all of the auditoriums have Dolby stereo and JBL speaker systems. A huge 25 X 80 mural is the focal point of the lobby, along with a giant circular refreshment center with eight serving stations.
As in all the Loews theatres, each auditorium has a different color theme.
Thanks moviebuff82!!!
Great article!!!
The Michael Kay Show on the YES Network and ESPN Radio 98.7 FM mentioned this theater alongside other New York City theaters that the radio hosts have went to recently. Last year marked 30 years since this theater opened, during which for a time the parent company of the theater sold the theater business to TriStar which in turn had some of its movies being shown there alongside Columbia movies well into the late 1980s when Tristar was bought by its sister company and Coke sold CPE to Sony, which in turn put in one of the first SDDS units in the theater for the launch of Last Action Hero which was a fluke.
Two more movies I saw here that I forgot to mention: Blue Steel & Pretty Woman. The next time I’m in New York I’ll have to come back. Most of the NYC theaters I visited back in the day are, sadly, long gone.
I haven’t been to this theater in about twenty five years but want to return. Most of the movies I saw here were when I was in high school. List below.
Good Morning Vietnam Major League Lock Up A Dry White Season Black Rain Johnny Handsome Next of Kin Look Who’s Talking Harlem Nights We’re No Angels Driving Miss Daisy Internal Affairs Flashback The First Power The Handmaid’s Tale Crazy People Tales from the Darkside: The Movie Q & A Arachnophobia The Freshman Air America My Blue Heaven
Sad the got rid of the David Rockwell designed concession stand in the AMC redo in 2013. I believe the stand was originally one of the first to feature a gigantic popcorn tub above the stand when it was redone in 1996, each popcorn kernel was as big as a basketball. Also AMC got rid of the color LED Daktronics Marquee sign advertising the films showing, instead we have the AMC logo on a yellow metal background, so much for progress.
Me and my Mom went to opening day at the theatre on 3/15/85 and we saw Lost in America with Albert Brooks.
I saw Avengers: Age of Ultron here last night (downstairs in Theater 5) and it was awesome. Lots of space between rows, so you barely have to move your feet if someone is trying to get to/from their seat. I’ll definitely be coming to this theater a lot from now on, unless I want to see something in IMAX.
