This location is now tagged with Laser at AMC on the website so appears to be one of the early locations to get this upgrade that was announced in April

ridethectrain the nearby theatres feature of Cinema Treasures is problematic. You can’t rely on it and the whole program logic would have to be changed to make the updates you want.

From Newday.comBy Tory N. Parrish @ToryParrish1 Updated November 1, 2019 11:38 AM PRINT SHARE Movie theater owner Jay Levinson is getting ready for a new arrival.

He will repaint the walls, upgrade the marquee and replace the carpet at his 1960s-era, four-screen theater, Elwood Quad, in East Northport in a few months. He also plans to lower ticket prices.

The new arrival he’s preparing for isn’t a blockbuster movie.

“We are concerned,“ said Levinson, who also owns the Bellmore Playhouse, a seven-screen movie theater that is about 20 years old. “When AMC opens, it’s going to be at least a 15% drop. It could be more,” he said.

The number of independent and small-chain movie theaters has been shrinking for years as they lose customers to large chains with more theater amenities, subscription-based online streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu, and other entertainment options.

Long Island’s independent operators also cite the costs of the rising minimum wage and high taxes, utilities, rent and movie studio fees.

“I believe that the independent theaters will always be there. But there’s not many of us left,” Levinson said.

Long Island had a total of 40 movie theaters in 2018, down 21.6 percent from 51 in 2001, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Nationwide during the same period, the number declined 9.9 percent to 4,370 movie theaters, according to the bureau.

Most of the movie theaters in the United States are mom-and-pop operations, but four large chains — AMC Entertainment Inc., Cineworld Group PLC (owner of Regal), Cinemark Holdings Inc. and The Marcus Corp. — account for about 55 percent of revenue, according to Patrick Corcoran, spokesman for the National Association of Theatre Owners, a Washington, D.C.-based trade group.

AMC, the largest operator in the United States, has seven theaters on Long Island, including a 17-screen, 21-year-old venue in Stony Brook that it plans to renovate next year.

The company’s new East Northport theater “will be a state-of-the-art, brand-new movie theater where people can expect the best that AMC has to offer,” said Ryan Noonan, a spokesman for Leawood, Kansas-based AMC.

In June 2018, Regal opened its ninth Long Island theater — a $30 million, 13-screen venue in Lynbrook on the site of its closed six-screen theater that opened in 1922 and was demolished in 2016.

The new theater features reclining seats with electronic controls, stadium seating and kiosks for self-service ticketing. Knoxville, Tennessee-based Regal Cinemas is the second-largest theater operator.

New theaters have an average of eight to 12 screens, Corcoran said.

It’s tough for small theaters to match reclining It’s tough for small theaters to match reclining seats such as these at Regal Cinemas 13 in Lynbrook, because they take up twice the space of regular seats, theater owners say. Credit: Ed Betz

They’ve modified the name in the ads to AMC Dine-In Huntington Square 12. Was confusing since the actual village of Huntington, location of the AMC Shore is some distance away.

Wonder if the small, neighborhood Elwood will be able to survive this.
