One, if not the, largest theater in Brooklyn. United Artists The Movies Sheepshead Bay was opened May 20, 1987 as a 9-screen ‘plex with 3,540 seats. On June 7, 2002 it was expanded to 14 screens. It later underwent renovation and the seating capacity was been reduced to 3,329. IMAX was added on November 7, 2008 and around 2010 RPX was added. Mostly mainstream fare, but has so many screens, it can afford the occasional indie/Woody Allen film every so often. Has a nice variety of films; usually something for everyone. Only game in town with recent neighborhood closings of popular theaters.

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/cineworld-group-and-imax-expand-partnership-with-agreement-for-15-new-imax-with-laser-systems-in-regal-theatres-300890229.html This press release says the imax here is being upgraded to laser. I personally think this one doesn’t really need a laser, but that’s just me.
This theatre opened on May 20, 1987 as a nine plex. It wasn’t 10 screens when it opened, please correct. When the theatre opened, it had 4 screens Dolby Stereo and 1 70MM. In the 1980, United Artists was very cheap in putting Dolby Stereo in their theatres. Half would be MONO. In 1999, theatres 5 and 6 got Ultra Stereo. The location finally got all digital sound in 2002. Sometime in late 2000, United Artists expanded the complex to 14 screens with stadium seating in 12 of the 14 screens. UA closed off sections of theatres 1 to 9 between 2000 and 2002. Each screen lost about 100 seats. Theatres 10 to 14 was added to the complex, with theatres 13 and 14 on the 2nd floor. UA did not make theatres 8 and 9 stadium seating due to the theatres very narrow. The work was completed in the summer of 2002 with a new parking garage next to the theatre. Also the address is 3907 Shore Parkway, that were the original entrance was. Once the work was completed to 14 screens, the entrance is now on Harkness Avenue side.
Please update the history of the theatre. IMAX was added in 2008 and sometime in 2010 or 2011 RPX.
Just uploaded a photo of the way the Movie opened in 1987.
Please update the 5 screen expansion to 14 screens was completed on June 7, 2002
I haven’t heard of ushers or security guards telling people to leave during the end credits before(very rude).
This location will receive an IMAX Laser upgrade, being one of the busiest for Regal in the nation.
“The upgraded theatres announced today will include IMAX’s groundbreaking laser technology and 12-channel immersive sound system, as well as enhancements including luxury plush rocker seating, redesigned entryways and in-theatre branding. The theatres span some of Regal and IMAX’s most longstanding and high-performing locations across New York, California, Texas, and Georgia, including the Regal Edwards Irvine Spectrum in Irvine, CA; Regal UA Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn, NY; and the Regal Edwards Houston Marq*E.” https://www.imax.com/content/cineworld-group-and-imax-expand-partnership-agreement-15-new-imax-laser-systems-regal
Please update, IMAX Auditorium #12 open on November 7, 2008 with Madagascar: Escape to Africa
2024 Update: Theater doesn’t hit the cleaning lights anymore while people are watching credits, since post covid. Also post covid, theater no longer masks the screens. All theaters have it set in one position. Theaters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11, 13 and 14 are all set to scope. Flat movies will show with bars on the sides. Theaters 8 and 9 are set to flat. So scope movies will show black bars on top and bottom. Theater 10 is RPX and has a fixed flat floating screen. Scope shows with black bars on top and bottom. Theater 12 is IMAX and has a fixed flat floating screen. Scope movies will show black bars on top and bottom too. Theater 6 is supposed to be a flat screen (since they aren’t enabling the masking feature) but they still have the masking on the sides wide open, which makes the flat movies show bars on sides and scope movies show with bars on sides AND on top and bottom!
I think one of the screens on the second floor does have properly functioning masking as I’ve seen it go off sometimes but a lot of the screens definitely do not use the masking.
The only ones with masking is Theatre 13 and 14
