Its giant, multicoloured cube 60 feet above street level pulsates with vibrant light. The ground level lobby soars 45 feet high and the escalator that rises five storeys above street level is one of the longest in Canada. The clear, glass wall provides ascending and descending moviegoers with a dramatic view of Richmond Street.
Another glass wall along the lobby at the top of the escalator and along the licensed lounge, Vivid, offers a panoramic view of downtown Toronto, overlooking John Street. Plasma screens run film trailers as well as music and promotional videos. Closed and dismantled in , the theatre was located on Broadway on the street level of the Paramount Building, a story skyscraper that for 40 years served as worldwide headquarters for Paramount Pictures. One screen features digital projection.
A special attraction is the stylish Club Room that can be rented for various corporate and special events and receptions. I am an old-time employee of Famous Players and I want people to know that I think the Scotiabank formerly Paramount Theatre is really awesome. I have not observed shoddy film presentation on the many many times I have been there. I love the optical illusion that you are falling back on the escalator going up the 5 stories to the main floor.
The sightlines and the seating are comfortable — and the screens are large. I am proud of Famous Players for building this megaplex!!! Not sure when they installed them — new since last TIFF at least. First theatre in the world to install IMAX laser projection. Because Genesis is also the name of secret project Khan steals in the movie. On my recent visit, the Poptopia booth was shuttered in favor of a Starbucks.
There is a Melt ice cream shop and a Starbucks now, in addition to the mini Pizza Pizza. Not sure if Poptopia is still there. Scotiabank Theatre Toronto. Refine Search.
