“Webster’s Cinemark movie theater could get a $16 million makeover for the ages next year - one fixed with a restaurant, bar, arcade, laser tag, bowling and event space, according to plans filed with the state last week.
The project includes upgrades and the addition of a venue Cinemark calls the “Gamescape,” an entertainment center coupled with the movie-going experience. Cinemark’s Gamescape has one location in El Paso, which also had a ropes course and climbing wall, and plans were filed last year to add another in Greenville in north Texas."
