Looks like I was wrong. Not much snow around here, but areas near the Neshaminy, Hamilton, and other theaters in South Jersey are getting hammered with the white stuff!!! Looks like the weatherman was wrong. On with the show!!!

A major snowstorm and a highly anticipated Super Bowl will keep people at home from attending the movies at this theater. Same thing happened when Avatar was first released there was a major snowstorm that kept some people home and one day the theater had to close early before the snow piled up near the theater. At least the theater is bigger than the snow!!! BTW, there will be more 3D movies this year than last year, and with the increased demand, more 3D screens need to be added. Slimshady, what’s the latest on the digital projection situation? Only one month left until Alice in Wonderland comes out in IMAX.

The Hurt Locker is playing at this theater following the Oscars. I tried to rent it on bluray but it’s on long wait from Netflix…so I might borrow a copy from a friend instead of watching it in one of the small screens. This used to be my favorite multiplex since it has quasi-stadium seating long before Rockaway came by.

Checking advance showtimes, on Febuary 17, one of the digital projectors will show “Celine Dion: Through the Eyes of the World”, a concert doc, for 8 days and showtimes only. It should sell well to the older demographic who likes her music.

I just put out a poll allowing CT users to vote which movie will win Best Picture. I hope Avatar wins all 9 nominations, which is tied with The Hurt Locker for the lead at the oscars. Good thing Avatar didn’t get acting nominations since most of that stuff is CGI.

Until now, since everyone is renting that movie from Netflix like crazy. The Hurt Locker was at this theater and quickly exited the theater during the busy summer of 2009.

looks like avatar will be number one again. It will pass titanic for the most money made by a movie in america and has already grossed the most money for a movie around the world, becoming the first $2 billion hit. Who knows, if this movie gets Best Picture as well as other accolades, it might gross even more. By the time the Oscars are shown on live TV, Avatar will still play in 3D but not in IMAX 3D due to Alice in Wonderland being shown.

Did it open that day? If so, how does it compare to the old cafe? Also, I noticed that avatar was playing on four screens with 3-D. Check my post on that other Clifton theater, which got digital projection (2-D) in that small theater and is 2k. It’s the only theater in Clifton that has Avatar in 2D.

looks like edge of darkness is the first movie to be shown in digital projection at this theater. What theater has the digital projection?

I also heard that clash of the titans will be in 3d, the remake. Warner Bros tested footage of the film and looked promising. I’ve seen bits and pieces of the film on tv (the original), so seeing it in 3D will be a big improvement on the original classic, which opened at the old Rockaway theater back in 1981 against Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Advance tickets are now up for three big movies coming out in two weeks…Wolfman, Valentine’s Day, and Percy Jackson. I plan on seeing Wolfman whether or not it’s digital 4k or not.

This is great news. I’d like to see “avatar” gross $2 billion worldwide (which it will in a few weeks) and become a huge hit on DVD and Bluray ( a 3D version might come out soon). I think they’re still using film at palisades (so is Lincoln Square). Last time i visited both theaters they still used the old IMAX system. Even the dome at LSC and the NatureMax theater still use film. It won’t be long before IMAX starts replacing those bulky film reels and heavy projectors with the simpler digital projectors. This is cost-effective for IMAX, since their stock has rebounded from all time lows and is climbing.

If you’re on facebook ski, fan the AMC Theatres page and ask them that question. They will reply as fast as possible. I’ve been asking AMC Theatres on facebook about all sorts of stuff regarding movies at the theater rather than on CT. I even asked a friend of mine who works there to fan the page, and he did.

I’m planning on visiting this theater with my aunt after the first weekend of February, upon which Avatar will become the highest grossing but not highest selling movie of all time, that of course, has to go to Gone With the Wind, back when movie ticket prices were not expensive and screens were just one screen each. It is, however, the highest grossing 3D/Imax 3D movie of all time, and will have some re-issues in the future once the oscars are handed to James Cameron and his crew.

some people whom my dad works with at school tried the new imax at this theater and they didn’t like it as much as a real imax theater (i.e., lincoln square or palisades).

my dad and stepmom went to this theater back when it was foxmoor cinema 7 back in the summer of 2000. They didn’t like the movie as well as the theater.

slimshady….the showplace at kerasotes in secaucus won’t be run by amc, as it will still be run as a kerasotes theater and not amc. BTW, avatar will still be playing in digital 3d on two screens and in imax 3d. When will more projectors be installed (the digital ones)? I can’t stand the blurry prints but like the loud surround sound.
