Movie Theaters in San Antonio...

[Jimcs50]

Many of you may not know this but 7 new movie theaters are either under construction or planned for in San Antonio and all should be up and running by late 2005/early 2006. The except is the Santikos’ theater being built next to The Shops at La Cantera, which should be done in the fall.

5 on the North side, 1 on the far west side, and 1 on the South side. However, the eastside has yet to have one nor are there any planned. Neither in the inner Eastside nor the far east side in the Kirby or Converse area. I don't know many of you have been to the far east side of the city, but I have many friends on that side of town (Foster Road area) and I still don't understand why there is no movie theater in the east side. The nearest one is in Live Oak (Regal Live Oak) but that's at I-35 and 1604. Have any of you seen the growth in the East Central/China Grove area of town?

Why has the far east side not been built a theater? I can understand the inner east side a bit with the AMC Rivercenter but past 410, no theater... weird.

Because of test marketing research....

Obviously they do not think they can make money in that area, or believe me, there would be new theaters there...simple as that.

negative, they should stop all development in that hole that is converse.

Well I live in that hole that you call Converse and love it. I don't usually go to the movies so movie theatres are not a major concern to me anyways.
But I do like the Forum and the Live Oak Theatre, the HEB and Wal-Mart so we've got everything we need.

Jim is right...its all about the green. Sad but true.

[JoeChalupa]

There is plenty of green on the North East.
Then again I'm one of those cheap guys who won't drop $8 to see a movie or $4.00 for popcorn.
Netflix for me.

[Clandestino]

I Hope the movie theaters fall on their faces. Do we realy need that many ANYWHERE?

why do you hate businesses?

[JoeChalupa]

I'm surprised Wal-Mart hasn't put a theatre in their Super Wal-Mart.

[Jimcs50]

Going to movies is so much better than watching at home. I just expect to spend $30 for us to go out to see a movie, I think I get my money's worth.....unlike the 300 bucks I wasted at the Cotton Bowl.

[JoeChalupa]

I disagree. I think watching movies at home is so much better.
I can pause it when I have to go, can control the volume and I always get the best seat in the house.
I don't have to pay $5 for popcorn or $5 for a beverage and if the urge arises, I can let one rip without even thinking about it.

I can let one rip without even thinking about it.

And how does your family feel about that one?

He said he has the best seat in the house, so that obviously means he watches movies in the bathroom.

I don't know if you're the only one.......I usually go to matinees and sneak candy or drinks in my purse.

I have one purse that will hold a whole 12 pack of beer....or a 6 pack in a big ziploc bag with ice.
