I quite enjoyed the marine/Cambie theatre. Marine gateway? I think. Always enjoyed their AVX movies, incredible sound. Usually fairly quiet too so that’s nice

Probably Richmond or Langley IMAX at this point.
I'm catching Top Gun 2 at Brentwood as its close to me and I like the VIP seats but I'm also going to make the hike to Victoria if the Royal BC Museum shows Top Gun 2 on their IMAX (it's the largest in Canada and true IMAX screen).

VIP cinema's are so bad. They're not comfortable at all.
All my friends say Landmark is the most comfortable as their seats completely recline. I've never been because their locations aren't convenient for me.
For audio and video, IMAX is probably the one to go see.

I love Landmark I won’t go anywhere else…
Don’t care if it’s not the best sound or screen tech wise… just great to watch there

Landmark Cinemas (Surrey/New West) for the comfort, fully reclinable seats
Cineplex at Brentwood for overall video/audio and comfort, reclinable seats too
I think Metrotown is the worse.

But for years we'd drive out of our way to go to marine gateway, load up on snacks at the t&t downstairs and into the vip
The seats at other vip theatres I've been to suck, but Langley Imax for top gun
Shame we don't have 4D theatres here, saw Crimes of Grindelwald in 4D in Australia and it was awesome

Booked IMAX Riverport for Top Gun Maverick. Going to be the first time back in an IMAX theatre in maybe a decade.

I've only been to the New West Landmark which is leaps and bounds better than Cineplex.
What makes the Surrey Landmark better?
edit: Nevermind, googled Surrey Landmark Theatre. Seems like it's everything else outside of the theatre room that's nicer

new west has more sight-line issues for some seats. theatres were fit into a space that wasn't originally designed for theatres.

I only go to Landmark now (New West). Short drive from Richmond and tickets are usually cheaper too. Having to go back to those shitty ass uncomfortable seats at Cineplex is just torture now. I'd rather pay for a friend's ticket than have to go through with being so uncomfortable for hours. Maybe I'll check out the Landmark in Surrey since y'all praising it so much lol.

I always go to Landmark new west. Havn't been to cineplex in a long time.
My friend once told me he doesn't like landmark because you can see the red illuminated EXIT signs on the bottom left and right corners. Apparently it bothers him and cineplex doesn't have that lol.
The screen is smaller compared to AVX screens though.

Dunbar theater for me.
Tickets are the right price and the seats are simply the best out there.
Their popcorn is also great and you can add flavouring like sour cream and onion/cheddar/pickle to it (free).
