Here’s the link to a new historical article about large format and roadshow presentations at Foothills and other Tucson cinemas.
November 7th, 1997 grand opening ad as a 15-plex in the photo section.
June 29th, 1988 grand opening ad in the photo section. 7 screens. Ad also in photo section.
This opened on October 1st, 1982 with four screens. Ad in photo section.
Local firm CDG Architects designed the 8-screen expansion of the Cineplex Foothills 7, according to this page at the web site of the builders, BFL Construction.
A fairly recent photo can be found here: http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y208/vickifunes/Arizona%20Malls/FoothillsTheater.jpg
The original 4-plex (then “Plitt Foothills Cinemas”) presumably opened along with the Foothills mall in 1983. A new IMAX® theatre opened at the AMC Loews Foothills 15 on September 3, 2010. http://www.txtmovieclub.com/profiles/blogs/tucson-new-imaxr-theatre-opens?xg_source=activity
Any more info?
