After three-and-a-half months (73 days) of renovations, the upgraded Laser IMAX auditorium with AMC Signature Plush Rocker seating opened here on Thursday October 3rd, just in time for Joker.

Laser IMAX is confirmed to be in the works from this theater’s official website: https://www.amctheatres.com/movie-theatres/philadelphia/amc-cherry-hill-24

With regard to NJ, New Brunswick 18 has also been confirmed to receive IMAX with Laser and Garden State 16’s IMAX is undergoing renovations (Laser is not confirmed as of yet but it’s likely).

I’m skeptical that they’ll add recliners, however, since that would halve the number of available seats. For these kinds of upgrades, the new seating that they usually put in are called “AMC Signature Plush Rockers”

The official websites for New Brunswick 18 and Cherry Hill 24 have confirmed that their IMAX theaters are being upgraded to Laser. Evidence is mounting that Garden State 16 will receive the same treatment!

The IMAX theater at this location closed today for renovations and will re-open in a couple of months. They are presumably upgrading to laser projection and new seating. I guess the plan is to be up and running by October 4th (Joker’s release date) at the latest, if it will be shown in 70mm here.
