Denver’s Best Movie Theaters (Now That The Esquire Is Closing)
from City Cast Denver · host City Cast
After a water main break, the rise of streaming, and a global pandemic put the Esquire Theatre on the brink, it looks like the 96-year-old arthouse won’t make it to 100. BusinessDen reported this week that after failing to find a buyer, the owners now intend to redevelop the property at 590 Downing St. into a mix of restaurant, retail, and office space. So producer Paul Karolyi is chatting with fellow film lover Adrian González, formerly of Denver Film and now a newsletter editor with City Cast, to talk about the Esquire closing and share their picks for the best movie theaters in town — from the best popcorn and drinks to the best arthouse and cineplex. What’s your favorite movie theater in town? And which one’s the worst? Are you loving the new AMC at 9+CO? Or maybe you’ve seen behind the screen at The Mayan? We want to know what you think about Denver’s movie theaters.
