rivest266 commented about AMC Interchange 30 on Mar 23, 2012 at 11:31 pm

AMC also has some booking trouble with the cinemas in Montreal at the Forum, but they still invested with an IMAX and ETX screen. All 22 of its screens are being used.

In 1998 Cinemas Guzzo opened an 10-plex in DDO near Montreal, they got one one blockbuster in 5 of its screens and the rest second-run. Guzzo sued and within weeks they got everything they want. Maybe AMC should sue Cineplex.

That came from Montreal’s La Presse in 1973. The US drive-in increased its ads in the Montreal market when drive-ins were finally allowed in Quebec.

I am willing to bet that this was an “UltraVision” theatre.
