I visited the Regency 9 this week to catch Saving Mr. Banks. It’s been years since I had been here and I wanted to see how Regency has kept it up. The last time I visited it looked tacky but had great THX sound in some auditoriums and very spotty hit and miss projection that usually was dim. It was built right before stadium seating but the slope on the floor is very steep, so having someone in front of you doesn’t obstruct your sight lines too much.

I am happy to say that the place is still tacky as they have really done nothing to to decor, the sound (which I am sure is no longer THX although the THX website still lists it as such) is still terrific; very well calibrated auditoriums, with enough bass to make me happy. This time however i noticed the picture has improved. For this cinema, the switch to digital is a welcome improvement.

They have recently replaced the seats in all 9 auditoriums, 4 of which are of a nice big size with 50 or so feet screens (top masked) and 2 medium ones and 3 smaller ones, all with nice size screens. All auditoriums still have two aisles which I always have liked. The seats are a bit too stiff and not that comfortable, but for a 6.75 matinee price, I think I found my new go to theater in this area.
