Another one gone,looks like AMC is running the LOEWS name into the ground,I do not hear many GOOD comments about AMC.
Loews ran the Loews name into the ground in their last few years of operations – dirty theaters, rude customer service, horrible concessions including those with funky linger odors (Nacho Grande for example), and terrible projection – I was happy to see AMC take over. AMC isn’t my favorite chain but I they were an improvement. As soon as they merged with Cineplex the standards declined, they were actually best run under short lived Sony Theaters banner if you ask me. AMC made a few improvements at the larger plexes and did little at these (knowing the replacement was on the horizon). The ones to look at are Loews Richfield Park which is still in decent condition, and the Loews Village 7 which is clean and well run despite the creepy layout of the place.
Ironically enough AMC has only rebranded the inside signs (ie: snack bar, poster cases, ect) of Loews sites, whereas General Cinema' (a long time rival of theirs) was gone in a matter of months, but unlike Cinemark who has opened new builds with the Century brand, they’ve made sure anything new was AMC.
Loews Ridgefield Park doesn’t have 3d, which edgewater has. And Loews Wayne and east hanover have digital 3d.
Up here in Canada, AMC is the much nicer, more civilized chain. Much less noisy and flashy than those former Famous Players SilverCity and Coliseums and the one in downtown Toronto, the Yonge-Dundas 24, is waaay classier than the loud Scotiabank (formerly Paramount)
are they showing any olympic events on the big screen there? Maybe AMC should do something like that for the next olympics, which will begin by the time the entire AMC chain of existing theaters will have 4k projection (and when NBC is wholly owned by Comcast, whose Universal movie studio will still show movies). Also, 2012 is when Paramount turns 100, so hopefully a new logo will come out for that studio. I remember when Loews changed their name to Sony, they had Sony Playstations at the lobby and Sony tvs showing stuff. Most of Sony’s movies played there, and they had the short lived SDDS sound system.
Still sitting there peacefully but empty, not even a sign announcing space available
Here’s the policy trailer that was shown before every movie at this theater…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcXO-iKaJ_Y
if no one buys it, then it will be demolished for parking space lol. What movie held the longest run at this theater?
What’s the latest on the building? Next year will mark the 30th anniversary of the opening of this theater, which turned around Loews' fortunes and became one of the leaders in building big multiplexes with fewer screens that were big in size and were surrounded by many speakers. The lobby was very spacious for its time.
I was there this past week—the Meadow 6 has almost been completely demolished. Only part of the shell of theater #1 was still standing. The facade is covered with a banner announcing a new Marriott hotel. By the end of this month, the Meadow 6 will be no more.
