If Im going to drop $20-25 on a movie, it should be an experience I cant get at home.ĭecibel levels are off the charts in this theater. Basically, most peoples home theater setups are better than this. The sound only seemed to come from a center channel. I think it was # 12? Anyway, you could see the seams in the screen panels when the backgrounds were light. Saw Magnificent 7 on the left side of a bank of 4 rooms. That just happened to be when I got there and I planned to wait in the lobby and have some popcorn. The lady taking tickets gave me a hard time because I was there 45 minutes before scheduled show start. Looks like it hasnt been updated since Miami Vice went off the air. Id rather drive the distance, to know that my refreshments are going to be fresh and not tainted with.įeels run down. I hope they clean up their act ASAP or else i will never be back, along with tell all of my friends/family/neighbors to just go to Gulf Coast Town Center. I have never been this disappointed in my life, while paying $12 for my ticket and another $15.50 for my popcorn, candy, and soda pop. During the cinema, there were teens on their cellular devices, talking/texting with the volume all the way up or with their brightness all the way up as well. I saw fruit flies around the soda spouts, i found a dead beetle of some sort in my popcorn bag, and the candy was stale. Oh and the seats were pretty comfortable. Unacceptable! The only thing good about this experience was the movie! Great movie. Another lady in there was kind enough to deliver some from 3 toilets down. I asked the lady in the stall next to me, she didnt have any either. Then I went to the restroom afterwards and my bad, I forgot to make sure there was toilet paper BEFORE I went.there was none. I missed 20 minutes of a great movie! My husband tried to fill me in when I came back in, but obviously not the same. I stood in line with my empty popcorn tub and empty soda for 20 minutes!! Nobody ever offered to give me a quick refill so I could get back to the movie. WRONG! I went out to get a refill about halfway through the movie and the lines were even longer!! Still only 2 workers. I thought that once the movie started, the lines would go down and refills wouldnt be a problem. We bought the way overpriced Large Popcorn and large soda since they have free refills. Only two workers behind the counter!! Thats not even close to enough for 20 theaters, much less the opening time for Jurassic World. Then once inside, the lines were extremely long to buy concessions. The line was extremely long (and slow) to buy tickets. You would think there would be plenty of staff on hand for that.but there wasnt. Shocking still though since it has our area’s only IMAX within two hours, and the only ScreenX nearby unless you drive to South Florida.My husband and I and our 9 year old son went to the very first showing of Jurassic Park yesterday. Ocala has a brand new Epic Theaters and is close-ish to the Villages with its own theaters. (Regal used to actually own the property until 2019-20.) Though I imagine Butler is the lease with the most strings attached and could actually be first to go, since I can’t imagine Royal Park‘s landlords being very harsh. I’ve heard Celebration does some of the best business in the region for Regal and since Butler can sell out auditoriums with only 30 guests due to the recliner retrofit, the extra capacity is a plus - at least for now. Truthfully I think that between COVID and bankruptcy slowing down expansions and remodels, and Gainesville continuing to expand population, and the monopoly Regal has here, there’s at least one reason to keep all 3 theaters here under Regal, at least if you look at them as a whole. We may still have another round of closures to get through though □ As a former RP manager I’m glad to see it isn’t □ but I agree I somewhat expected it.
