This was a big loss for people in Québec city who still enjoys their movie in their original soundtrack. Cineplex Odeon does not offer half of what Famous player use to offer. Will they ever open up again???

An odd bit of trivia, but this is the shortest life for any Famous Players Silvercity location in Canada, lasting only seven years (likely didn’t help there was a giant Cineplex Odeon right next door, but I am surprised Cineplex didn’t just update this one as it had more auditoriums). The next location to close in such a short amount of time was Silvercity Mississauga about half a dozen years later.
