Seating capacities at this theater, post-recliner conversion (via Fandango’s reserved seating service):

  • 1, 20 - 87
  • 2, 3, 6, 15, 18, 19 - 41
  • 4 - 39
  • 5 - 35
  • 7, 14 - 47
  • 8, 9, 12 - 48

  • IMAX - 326

Curious to what the original capacities were before the recliner conversion, and how they went from 298 to 80/87.

For the record this is one of many full-sized IMAX auditoriums which is now, unfortunately, only showing 2K digital projection that cannot fill the screen. Hopefully they upgrade to laser soon.

This opened on July 3rd, 1998. Grand opening ad in the photo section.

I remember a “Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland” theme at the theater that was very pleasant & soothing to the eyes. Muvico is known to have “themes” at their theaters & was wondering if the whole themeing was removed when Regal took it over! I recall seeing the 1st Charlie’s Angels movie at this theater & the “big thing” at the theater during my visit was Star Wars Episode I in IMAX, “50,000 watts of sound”, etc, etc…

I stayed at a hotel across the street from The Pointe last month & the shopping center is looking a little “dead”…lots of empty shops & not many people walking around…& this was a FRIDAY NIGHT, signs of the economy I’m sure. Wondering if the theater can stay afloat in that shopping center.

They’re also painting it white as part of the uglifying of Pointe Orlando.

The Pointe 21 was purchased by Regal Entertainment Group. I think they’re refurbishing it as such.

The Imax screen was removed a few years ago.
I was visiting Orlando and emailed Muvico to find out what they were showing and got an email back saying it had been removed.

This theater used to show IMAX and 3-D IMAX. But lately I haven’t seen them advertised. Does anyone know if they still show IMAX films?

Hi there Celluloid Freak,

Muvico Pointe 21 was designed by HOK Architects (specifically by a subdivision of HOK called “Studio E” – in their Orlando office during 1996-1997). I was the site project architect during it’s construction and worked on the design construction documents prior to that for about 2 years. The Architect of Record is Foard Meriwether (he signed and sealed the construction documents but did not work on the design itself). The actual “design” was the work of several designers that were part of the Studio E guild. Unfortunately, Studio E was dissolved in 1999 at which time I switch over to HOK Aviation.

I’m glad you enjoy your experience at Muvico. It was a tremendous undertaking both professionally as well as personally with me. I still have a full set of construction documents in Orlando (I currently live in San Francisco) and can get you specific counts of the theater capacities if you are interested – I don’t recall the number off hand 3800 sound close though.

Best Regards,
Rich Pickler
HOK Architects

PS – In the architectural arena, the style would be considered more modern eclectic than Art Nouveau.
