Warren Theatre coming to Memorial and Rockwell

[okc_bel_air]

Do you have concrete proof the project is dead? My sister lives near that corner and has a friend at the city planning commission. She is trying to sell her house and asked questions to her friend and was told to hurry and sell it because Warren will be building there. The land deal is done and most of the paperwork is done.

Warren is definitely an incredible place to see a movie.

I don't see them building this for at least a year with the current state of economy, even though we're NOT in a recession. With funding tightened, they already scrapped the expansion of the Moore location last year, I don't see this one breaking ground for awhile.

'oh my gawd... I have to walk, actually walk a few steps through a mall! waaaaaaaaaaah!!! waaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!' lol

I'm inventing a crane that just drops people through a skylight into the seat and have tubs of greasy buttered popcorn flavor delivered through an IV. It's obviously too much effort to walk to the seat or even to pick up the popcorn.

And we wonder why our state is always off the charts on obesity statistics.

It's not the walking itself, it's the location. I like walking, but I hate having to deal with all the trappings of the mall just to see a f-ing movie.

well its not rappings if you have will power and avoid the sale signs, also, i wonder why they dont have a special entrance to the theater itself, in deerbrook mall, in humble texas they has the ame theater set up and they have a entrance that goes to the theater part, wonder why quial didnt do this

bout time someone else gave quail amc 24 a big shake-up. seems like they have had a monopoly in that immediate area.

No, there's more to "trappings" than just "I can't go see a movie at AMC without buying a bunch of crap."

Already discussed in post #64.

Back to Warren... do we really need more screens?

Probably not. As a better product enters, it'll put the others out of business. Then we'll have nice big empty buildings with nothing to go into them.

No biggie, let them sit idle a spell, throw up some parking nearby, dig a ditch, toss in some water, an occasional lawn chair and some fish and voila, a new entertainment district is birthed. hey, it's worked before. 8^)

Well my husband and I live right by quail springs mall and we still travel to Warren occasionally. We are huge movie goes!!! And i truly believe they will both do great!!! Nothing wrong with options! People dont like going to the same place everytime anyways. Its good to be able to mix it up like the big cities of the world! We are just getting more options! Be thankful people. Glass half full, not empty We are looking forward to it big time! Go OKC God Bless

[jbrown84]

The giant, purple comic sans doesn't help either.

Its okay, everyone was new to the interwebs at one point. . .

Hell yes, thats just a couple miles from my uncles house and will be a lot more convenient then the moore location when we come visit OKC!

You're about a year late.

The NW OKC location has been scrapped. Moore is all there is going to be for now.

[Matt]

Can we get a "NOT" edited into the thread title? Either traditional or Wayne's World-style placement, doesn't matter to me.

What is going in on the SW corner of Memorial and Rockwell? Large structure being constructed. Got most of the prefab walls up. Obviously not a theatre, but I couldn't tell what it was. Anywon Know.

OK, Thanks for the info. It is quite a large facility.
