What year was the movie theatre and level 3 food court added to Tysons Corner Center?

The food court is nice I guess, but the movie theatre was too late in my opinion.

They should have added that shit back in the 1980s or the 1990s back when movies were actually worth going to see.

Not now.

Most movies being released right now are garbage.

There *was* a movie theatre there in the 80s, early 90s as well. I went there with my brother to see Fletch when it came out. Too bad I was 6 years old and didn't particularly appreciate it at the time. :)

Now they have an IMAX theater there also.

I saw 'Walk the Line' there soon after the new theaters opened.

I liked it.

Yeah, I remember that joint down off of Rte. 7. Just like the theater in Dranesville, it used to be the place to be.

There was a movie theatre inside the mall?

Either I was too involved in trying to get the phone numbers of South Lakes cheerleaders or too damn high back then to notice.

Interesting.

Yeah but where does it rank in your favorite movies all time?

More than likely not even close.

Funny. Seems like most malls that had theaters back in the 80s and 90s don't have them anymore because they can't compete with the newer theaters. Personally, I think the timing was perfect.

The timing may have been perfect but you cannot deny that most movies being released today suck.

THE A-TEAM, NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, THE KARATE KID, SEX AND THE CITY 2, TOY STORY 3...

This is going to be a memorable summer at the movies alright.

2010 THE SUMMER OF SHIT

I can't argue there. Even Toy Story 3 looks awful. "Nice Ascot."

Disney fucks up everything.
