The Mann Exchange 8 was opened in the early-1990’s, after Mann Theatres had dropped the Alex Theatre. In 1996, two more screened were added.

Taken over by Vintage Cinemas in 2011, two of the screens were closed. The remaining screens closed on February 29, 2012.

Twin = more rent. Two screens just means you have more time to play your worst two movies. Cut your losses.

As of recently since Vintage took over, The “Mann” signage has been removed on both the front and the back, which only left it as “10 Theatres”.

As written above, Vintage is new the operator of the original 8 screens, with the twin closed. Showtimes are available on MovieFone the soonest of all the sites.

I’m speculating, but it appears as though it may have closed again tonight. The final showtime set was at 5:45 and there are no times listed for tomorrow and beyond.

It would make sense for Vintage to call it quits, especially with the Marketplace now re-opened.

Can now officially be marked as closed. I just found my pictures of the twin on the final day of their operation (which was final day of Mann operation, June of 2011).

Well, it’s closed during construction/renovation, which has already started in earnest. They’ve already removed the old marquee and dome. This is what it’s going to look like: Former Mann Theater complex in Glendale slated for major overhaul

An update on the transformation of the former Mann 10 to an upscale art theater called the Five Star; it does not indicate the number of screens but the seat count will be reduced from 2,500 to 508. View article
