Pretty much everything. The Melville Theatre converted from a film theatre to a digital cinema in April of 2011 and installed a new digital projector, a new surround sound system and a new screen.

No. The 35mm film projector and associated equipment were removed when we installed the digital cinema equipment. Everything that we play is digital.

Yes, you have to wear Real D 3D glasses. They look like sunglasses, and if you already wear glasses they are made to fit over your regular glasses easily. You will receive a new pair of Real D 3D glasses every time you attend a 3D movie at the Melville Theatre.

To bring you the newest movies as quickly as we can, it is not possible to book them sufficiently far in advance to print a flyer.

Not all movies are made in 3D. Therefore, the Melville Theatre plays both regular and 3D movies. If a movie is available in 3D, that's the version that we will play.

A perfect picture and sound reproduction, every time. Movies on film can become worn, degrade and get scratched and dusty over time. This doesn't happen with digital cinema.

Yes, there is a $4.00 surcharge on all tickets for 3D movies. This is not a charge for the 3D glasses — you still pay the surcharge even if you bring your own glasses. The surcharge is simply because 3D movies are more expensive to bring to the Melville Theatre. The surcharge applies only to 3D movies.
