  • <p>Taken on July 3rd, 2022. I had snuck in (sorry, Regal) and got a good look at the auditorium, as at the time I took the picture, there wasn’t any pictures of the auditorium. No, those aren’t recliners, but rather plush rockers, in the style of recliners. They’re pretty comfy, although the leather covers are beginning to wear out.</p> <p>Prior to the installation of these plush rockers, this auditorium had Regal’s WAY older plush rockers (you know, the ones with the gray fabric) and because of its compact design, could fit in way more people. As you can tell with the old auditorium design from the Act III days, this was a retrofit - the IMAX was installed in 2008, opening on December 19th of said year, presumably in time for screening Scott Derrickson’s “The Day The Earth Stood Still”.</p> <p>At the time I took this picture, this IMAX only had xenon projection and a 6 track sound system, but now, it has been upgraded to single laser AND 12 track projection not too long ago. Now, Regal’s IMAX locations here in the valley all have laser, according to IMAX’s website, so a big win for locals who want that premium format goodness.</p>
  • <p>Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 from August 22, 1986 playing at the Coronet.</p>
  • <p>Taken on June 29th, 2025. It looks like Sunset got the memo, and unfortunately replaced their electronic marquee with the now standard TV screens. As with Regal’s locations now, the box office sits abandoned, instead asking patrons to order their tickets at the concession stand.</p> <p>The films showing are: F1 (IMAX too), 28 Years Later, Ballerina, Elio, Final Destination Bloodlines, How to Train Your Dragon (2025…), The Life of Chuck, Lilo & Stitch (2025…), M3GAN 2.0, Materialists, and Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning.</p> <p>Fun fact: Prior to Regal retrofitting its locations in the valley in the mid-2000s for stadium seating, this location got a makeover. It looks like the original Act III design (which can be seen over at CinemaTour) either got dated REAL quick or it didn’t sit well with locals. So Regal gutted both the box office and concession stand in favor for a more… simplistic design. Remnants of the Act III era still remain, in the auditoriums, the walls, the corridors… and well, the bathrooms.</p>

  • <p>During its run of “Full Metal Jacket” and “Robocop” on August 7, 1987, the World Premiere of Madonna’s “Who’s That Girl” was held at the RKO National Twin. And look who’s there that evening, the material girl herself.</p>
