AMC has Northeast Philly pretty much covered (Neshaminy, Woodhaven, Franklin Mills, and the Orleans…I guess), but that doesn’t stop Regal Cinemas from operating this generally unimpressive nine-screen multiplex at the junction of Welsh Road and Grant Avenue (between Bustleton and Krewstown). It opened on June 16, 1995.

Screens are small-ish, sound is average, seating is meh. On the other hand, if you’re hoping to see a new blockbuster, this theater might offer less of a crowd to contend with…

Yeah, I do get a bit too deeply into this stuff sometimes. At least it keeps me out of trouble…..

Regal recliners do seem a bit more comfy than the AMC version, based upon my experience at Regal New Roc City.

Never been to an AMC with recliners. The only AMC theaters with recliners in the Philly area that I am aware of is AMC Woodhaven and the Marleton 8 and Deptford 8 over in South Jersey. Soemthing is going on at the AMC Neshaminy 24 as the IMAX and theater #24 have been shut down for the next 12 weeks….but that’s a mystery at this time.

I think the mysterious thing may be a laser imax upgrade

At Neshaminy, it was the conversion of Theatre #24 to Dolby Cinema, and the addition of recliners and new decor in the IMAX Theatre

Maybe this complex was closed by Regal and management wasn’t informed? Attended a movie last evening (6/30/23) and was appalled at the condition. There are signs for each auditorium, but no sign of what movie was playing there. The recliners have seen better days. The “seating area” worn down in some cases, recliner leg rest torn up. If I had known, even given the temperature, I wouldn’t have worn shorts. On the positive side, the sparse staff was friendly and did a good job. Even though the seats were worn, auditorium was clean as were the bathrooms. Projection and sound clear. Some of the guests balked at the bag inspection policy, which was noted via signage.

m00se1111 My local Regal here is the same. The recliners are wearing out. Two weeks ago in the RPX I had pieces of the recliners all over my shirt. They have general signs that show Auditorium 1-6 and Auditorium 7-15 RP. Each individual auditorium has what’s playing.
