Author Topic: Maya Theatre Circuit Robert Golding Film Handler Posts: 65 From: Sutter, CA, USA Registered: Jan 2001 posted 03-02-2003 04:14 AM                     Hi everyone. I'm wondering if anyone has heard of or has any information about Maya Theatre's? Seems they are looking in my area to build a new multiplex.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 03-02-2003 09:14 PM                     Will these plex's all look like ancient pyramids?

Instead of ads & trailers, there'll be 10 minutes of poetry reading before the movie. Mark is probably right though; a human sacrifice on top of the theater is what's going to bring them in.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

They're not a 'chain' but it looks like they have something to do with film. Apparently they are based in Mississauga. If this is who you are talking about Rick Long or Gordon McLeod might know something about them. FWIW, Adam doesn't have it listed under 'Circuits' on Cinematour. You might also try registering on the Cinematour Forums and ask there. There aren't too many people registered yet, but it seems someone new registers and supplies an answer every time someone asks a question.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony.

I'll see what I can find out after I organize the 600 photos I took in Chicago (before I forget what they're photos of). [Later that afternoon ...] Still never heard of them.

Now an aquatics center is al that's left of that project.  |  IP: Logged Scott D.
