Cinema 6

Cinema 6 in Tomball is undergoing renovations and is expected to reopen late November.

With progress being made on renovations throughout the Four Corners Shopping Center in Tomball, residents now have something else to look forward to. Premiere Cinemas, the company that owns Cinema 6 in the center, plans to reopen the theater late November with a variety of new features.

Among the new attributes will be: a wide-screen, high-definition auditorium capable of screening movies in 3-D, a new concession stand, restrooms, arcade room and renovated lobby. All auditoriums will be converted to stadium seating and Premiere will be installing high-backed rocking chairs, which it has already implemented at other locations.

“This new theater is going to be a nice amenity for the City of Tomball,” said Joel Davis, a representative of Premiere Cinema Corp. “It's nice to see that this whole center is being brought to a higher level.”

Other updates include a new fire protection system and the conversion of the front canopy of the shopping center into an interior space.

The theater is expected to reopen around Thanksgiving, Davis said. Ticket prices have not been determined yet, but Davis said they will remain competitive with likely a slight increase to compensate for the renovations.

“We still plan to offer the best prices in the Houston metro area,” he said.

Workers recently moved into the framing phase and have begun working on the expansion of the physical building, Davis said. Over the next few weeks, plumbing will be installed, followed by new seating and the projector for the new theater.

Meanwhile, developers continue to work on exterior renovations throughout Four Corners in an effort to bring in new tenants.

  • Late open

    I'm guessing the late opening is due to Tomball permitting. Their business unfriendly environment has held up several friends businesses, over a year in one case. Hopefully Tomball won't cost them too much money with missing big openings like the hobbit.

    Please hurry and re-open! Please do not go to popcorn and nachos like other places do now! I loved the old theater and I hate to see it change because of so many memories there with my kids and now my grandkids. Don't raise prices too much!

  • prices

    With what you are doing to the theatre, I can see that you would have to raise admission price. What I would like is there to be child prices like the other theatres. Can't wait for the reopening. S

One year after Texas students began taking end-of-course exams to graduate from high school, two pieces of legislation—Senate Bill 3 and House Bill 5—aim to reduce the number of state standardized tests students are required to take and overhaul the state’s graduation plan. We want to know how you think students in Texas should be tested to prepare for life after high school.
