This will mark an end of showing film in Paramus for 45 years. Plus prices are outrageous already (alongside the other AMC theaters in NJ and elsewhere).

Last night the theater had to be evacuated due to the rain and wind. It’s open as of right now.

I think Rockaway might be the largest. BTW, this theater is closed due to the snow. It might reopen tomorrow.

I’m confused, how can Empire’s IMAX be a larger screen than here when someone said this theater’s largest screen is larger than Rockaway 16’s largest screen when Rockaway’s IMAX screen is larger than Empire (NYC)’s IMAX screen??

Which is the largest liemax in NJ? Here, Rockaway or Jersey Gardens?

A friend of mine went to see Avatar in either digital 3-D or Imax 3-D and although he liked the movie, he felt somewhat dizzy after nearly 3 hours of 3-D action.

I think anything over 4 screens shouldn’t even be on cinema treasures.You talking about a business that runs them in and out like cattle.Glad i got out in the early 80’s.

4900 seats? that’s quite a lot for an amc theater even more than the old tenplex or triplex.

have you tried the liemax at rockaway or jersey gardens? I think i’ll skip them and go see the real thing at palisades center, which is easier to get to than sitting in new york traffic coming to the big city (both empire and Lincoln Square). I never been to the Empire theater but I usually see the front of it while driving down Times Square.

looks like the imax is opening just at this location, leaving the rockaway to open in a month with avatar as the next movie.

are the imax showtimes up for this theater and the ROckaway? For Rockaway it’s not up yet…once the conversion is done by November 20 the system will be activated.

sounds good. I wonder if they’ll share the same showtimes. Which auditorium at this theater will have the IMAX? Maybe screen #1…which has the most seats.

they now have 3 3D screens with one Sony 4k….Rockaway and garden state are going live with their IMAX on the same day…. I asked one of the managers and their live date is November 19.

Seems that Xmas Carol 3D will be the first IMAX 3D feature to be shown at this theater (not to mention the two 3D screens showing the film). That might happen; if it doesn’t, then Avatar will be the next movie to debut in the new IMAX theater.

what’s the latest on the imax? Rockaway is getting it first.

Which auditorium will get the digital IMAX treatment and when will it open…I think Avatar will be the next movie. Paranormal Activity is playing at this theater, as is AMC’s sister theaters in Rockaway and Clifton.

Since it has already two digital projectors, will this theater upgrade them to 4k? I saw a 2k presentation at this theater only once. I hope they don’t bring the fake imax to the theater as it will lure IMAX fans to Lincoln Square.
