I'm familiar with this theater and only wish I still lived in the area to see that new Barco projector. A buddy of mine saw ROTS there opening week and raved about it in ways I wish he would describe here in this forum. The theatre in question is the newly-reopened Camelot in Greenville SC. This place boasts the largest screen on the east coast. I have seen it in person when it was first built a decade ago (as the Carmike) and it blew me away then. THX-certified sound, and the most ginormous screen I've ever beheld. I wanted to see Ben Hur play on this screen in the worst way.

Apparently a series of bad investments had this awesome facility change hands for a while, then be used as a church for a while, then sit unused for a while. Now it's back to being a badass theatre again, and I only wish I still lived in that part of the country to behold it.

Edit:
here are two links about the theatre

official site

Cinema Treasures forum (seems to take a while to load the posts, so be very patient)

The latter contains some of my friend's rave reviews.
