This cinema once opened an IMAX theatre (conversion of theatre 12) on April 27, 2018, in time for “Avengers: Infinity War.” However, as of the time I’m writing this (February 25, 2024), it has since been converted into another UltraAVX theatre.

This theatre opened as Galaxy Cinemas Saskatoon on September 1, 2006. Its opening movies include Crank, The Wicker Man, Invincible, Talladega Nights, The Illusionist, Little Miss Sunshine, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, and Material Girls.
Just a correction on the main write-up: Pacific didn’t close because it couldn’t compete. It closed because the company that owned the Galaxy owned Pacific and Capitol 4/Empire and only wanted one theatre downtown, which is a shame.
Now the name is official: Scotiabank Theatre Saskatoon & VIP.
And this will be changed to Scotiabank Theatre Saskatoon and VIP Cinemas later this year.

Just looking at what’s playing today at the Centre cinemas, it seems to me that they are all recent releases, so I don’t see the problem.
