Two photographs I took of the Village Southland in February 2010:

According to the Warner Cinemas 100 list it opened on 6 September 1990. Seating given as 3228 with 16 screens.
The original cinemas, opened during a 1990 expansion, were at the Karen St (northern) end of the shopping centre, linked to the level 3 food court. When the centre was expanded across Nepean Highway at the end of the 90’s, the cinemas were rebuilt along the Nepean Highway (east) side of the centre, in place of the original front car park - the development was known as The Street. The original location is roughly above where the bus interchange is now.
