Opened December 17, 1993. Carmike’s Millertown Pike 10 is something of a standard issue multi-plex with plenty of parking, near the interstate and a shopping mall. The lobby is spacious with candy counters at each side. The ten auditoria are arranged on either side of a transverse center corridor. The hall is distinctive only for it’s having been hurriedly remodeled within a couple of years of its original opening.
When Regal’s competing first run theatre was expanded from four to nine screens, all with stadium seating, Carmike quickly closed half of the Millertown Pike 10, rebuilt those auditoria with stadium seats, reopened those, then closed the other half and built stadium seats there.
The Millertown Pike 10 had six halls equipped with digital projection. Picture quality and sound were quite good in all halls. It was closed on June 25, 2023.

Good question as to what constitutes a classic and as with all other forms of art, the standards are subjective. This is not to give credence to the architectural design of the Millertown or to disparage the works of Rapp & Rapp. Evidence by your excellent report on the Millertown, such a venue might be worthy of being defined as an odd treasure.
Thanks for bringing this topic to the forum.
Does anyone happen to know when this theater opened by chance?

News reports that this theater will close after business on SUN 6/25/2023.
Another Carmike location closed by AMC they totally suck.
OK, so Auditorium 5 had the complete package, that is, Dolby, DTS, and THX. Which were the respective auditoria where Dolby, DTS, and THX were initially installed by themselves?
