No problem.
Thanks for clearing that up, RyanToDaF2044.
“I’m not sure if it’s the same Regal that currently owns the United Artists and Edwards theater chains” It is, actually.
We are proud to announce that the Michigan based Phoenix Theatres opened the new Northtowne Theatre on March 16, 2023 after a six month renovation project that included installing: all new heated reclining seats, digital projection, Dolby ATOMOS in two auditoriums and Dolby 7.1 in the other seven screens, and a new attached lobby with self-serve soda bars.
It is reopening March 9, 2023:

Prior to Regal Cinemas this was operated by National Theatre Corporation.

Shame! I feel sorry for the people who have to travel to Bryan or Wauseon now to see a movie.
The two movies I remember seeing at Northtowne were the original “Batman” and “The Abyss,” both in 1989.
This theater closed in June 2022:

I believe DreamWorks Pictures had the world premiere showing of their film “The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio” in September 2005 at this theater. (Ironically, the film was shot in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and New York City, not Defiance, Ohio itself.)
