I grew up in Little Rock and also have great memories of the Cinema 150. Saw many great movies there as a kid such as Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Top Gun. I have yet to go to a theater that rivals what the Cinema 150 had. Unfortunately, I read that in May of 2003 United Artists finally shut down the 150 because a new theater opened up with 20 screens not to far away. The last showing at the 150 according to the article I read was X2: X-Men United on May 26, 2003. I will always remember the 150 for the unique design, huge screen, and great sound. They sure don’t build ‘em like the used to.

This is a great theatre that holds lots of memories for me. While it might not be the most beautiful or filled with fanciful artistic appointments. This theatre has always had great movies, first class sound, a beautiful screen and every seat is a winner. What more could a movie goer ask for. When I am in Arkansas I like to stop by for a movie. It isn’t often enough.

F.Y.I.

I’m currently employed with United Artists as the manager of the Cinema 150 and thought you might like to know that seats are a special order high back seat with collapseable arm rests and are covered in scarlet crushed velvet. The theatre currently has a compliment numbering 700. The screen has a pitch of 150 degrees thus it’s namesake. This is important to know because the auditorium as a whole has been molded in a semi circle to better accent the pitch of the screen. The desired effect is that comparable to an amphitheater.
