Opened on November 26, 1999, the Thoroughbred 20 is one of the finest multiplexes in Metro Nashville and the best Carmike theater in middle Tennessee. Four of the Thoroughbred’s twenty stadium seating auditoriums are equipped with giant screens and THX sound. The original opening seating capacity was 4,800.
In 2018 it was reseated and the total seating capacity was reduced to 3,185.

Here are a couple of recent photos of the Thoroughbred.
Carmike ran this website at http://www.carmikethoroughbred.com for Star Trek.

I think this is the flagship of Carmike Cinemas.
Carmike has installed one of its proprietary BigD large format screens in this theater; there’s a story here: View link and a picture of a BigD screen here: http://www.carmike.com/promotions.aspx?id=93
This theater installed an IMAX screen in Theater #15, whic opened in March 2014. The Big D screen is in Theater #6, for those who are wondering.
February 12th, 2014 grand opening of the IMAX screen as well as the November 12th, 2010 grand opening of the Big D screen in the photo section as well. Also the original grand opening ad from November 26th, 1999 can also be found.

Theaters 10 & 11 – 139 seats (originally 243)
UPDATE: Theater 6 has been converted into a Dolby Cinema (around 2019 or so), knocking the capacity down from 473 to 300.
The decision to upgrade BigD to a Dolby Cinema allowed AMC DINE-IN Thoroughbred 20 to have the biggest capacity of any Dolby Cinema in the US. Not that important, but thought it was worth knowing :-)
