Staten Islander’s won’t have to travel to New Jersey for their dine in experience anymore! The new AMC Imax experience will be opening within the next month according to SIlive. Mark Welton, president of IMAX theaters stated, “Our mission is to deliver audiences a truly differentiated cinematic experience that you just can’t get at home or in any other setting. It’s the difference between watching a movie and feeling like you are a part of one.”
The difference between IMAX and a regular movie is its sound, larger screens, and enhanced audio. “For 50 years, IMAX has changed the way people experience movies. What really sets us apart is our commitment to innovation and quality, and that we take a holistic approach and look at every step along the way to deliver audiences the best and most immersive film experience,” Welton said.
Curious about pricing? All theaters vary based on the market, but in comparison to New Jersey prices for adults are $16.20, seniors are $14.60 and children are $13.00. They have also announced they will be having a $10 Tuesday special which includes a movie ticket, popcorn, and a drink. Talk about a great deal!
