Author Topic: Early DTS Presentations / "Jurassic Park" Michael Coate Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1904 From: Los Angeles, California Registered: Feb 2001 posted 07-11-2013 01:21 PM                     Experiment time.... Who remembers the summer of 1993 and, in particular, the release of Jurassic Park and introduction of DTS digital sound? I'm in the process of putting together a retrospective article on that movie, as this year is its 20th anniversary, and one of the things I wish to include is a list of the movie's DTS presentations. I've been fortunate to have been supplied a copy of the 1993 install records of DTS (Datasat) to help in my research. Unfortunately, the passage of time and ownership changes have created some challenging interpretations of the data, and I'd like to enlist your help. I’ve found DTS’s records to be both incomplete and too long. Some DTS installations are clearly missing while other entries don’t belong because it would appear an installation took place later in 1993 for other movies. I suppose some of the entries may actually represent an install made for Jurassic Park mid-run. (Anyone involved with or recall a mid-run upgrade?) And since the company’s records were continually updated, there are some chain names and screen counts that may be different from when Jurassic Park played in 1993 as a result of an ownership change or renovation. I’ve corrected some of them, like the Edwards and United Artists theaters listed as Regal in the records, but I’m sure there are others. The list as supplied to me is said to represent the DTS installations from the year 1993, which means any installs not made specifically for Jurassic Park need to be weeded out. As well, I think I've spotted some theaters I don’t think had been built as of 1993, so I'm not sure what would explain that. I’m also unsure what would explain any missing installations. (The only thing I can think of is the missing installs were of the Lt-Rt “DTS-S” version and didn’t get replaced with a six-track “DTS-6” unit until 1994 or later.) DTS's Terry Beard stated in interviews in '93 that the majority of the initial DTS installs were of the Lt-Rt version, so it might also be interesting to try to identify which were the six-track and which were the Lt-Rt versions (though this is a secondary goal of mine). I’ve already added in a handful of missing DTS engagements, but I suspect there are a lot more still unaccounted for. At this time I'm presenting the list to you as raw as possible, except for transferring the data into a layout and stylization format that I like and making a few geographical corrections (and one intentional misspelling to outsmart the Film-Tech touchy-subject filter). I’ve excluded international installations for the time being preferring to focus on the United States and Canada. I'm grateful for the assistance I've received thus far from friends and colleagues including Film-Tech members Steve Guttag, Bobby Henderson, Mark Lensenmayer, and especially Daniel Schultz of Datasat. And I'll be grateful for any additional help I may receive. A couple of caveats: I realize long-term memory is often unreliable, but please don't let that discourage you from commenting if you think you have any information relevant to the topic. I'm in the process of obtaining copies of the original newspaper promotion for as many markets as possible to compare and cross-check with the install records, but doing so is a long, slow process, and in the meantime I thought we could have a discussion in an attempt to start sorting out this mess. If you do provide information, please clarify whether your experience with DTS and Jurassic Park was as a moviegoer or as an industry professional (projectionist, installer, etc). Also keep in mind one of the problems associated with recalling early DTS presentations is that some non-digital theaters included the DTS presentation snipe in their presentation, misleading moviegoers into thinking they were a part of “The Digital Experience.” I also ask at this time that you please not share or post this list elsewhere as it is still very much a work-in-progress.

That site is now the AMC Showplace 11.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan."

Jurassic Park rolled out DTS Digital Sound to the public, but it also unveiled the THX "Grand" trailer. It was pretty thrilling watching that snipe (as well as the original "Digital Experience" clip for DTS) at GCC Northpark #1 in Dallas.  |  IP: Logged Chris Mosel Film Handler Posts: 74 From: New Braunfels, TX, USA Registered: Sep 2002 posted 07-11-2013 03:38 PM                     Texas New Braunfels- Walnut 6 San Marcos - Cinema 5 both Lone Star Theatres both no longer open (Cinema 5 now a Dollar General, Walnut 6 was bulldozed) I was a manager of Lone Star Theatre's discount theatre in New Braunfels at the time.  |  IP: Logged Tom Mundell Expert Film Handler Posts: 120 From: Silver Spring, MD, USA Registered: Nov 2007 posted 07-11-2013 04:08 PM                        I saw this in DTS at the Loews Freehold Metroplex in New Jersey; I don't remember which auditorium (I think it was one of the (at the time) THX auditoriums) and I don't know if that was the only one with DTS or if other auditoriums had it as well, but at least one did.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 07-11-2013 04:12 PM                     I don't know of any cinema in Niles, MI by that name. The only one that I remember at the time was the Ready, which was sliced up from a single to a quad. It's being restored to a single as we speak. The Ready I didn't see it here, but at the University Park East GCC. Pretty sure that was analog, based on the ad in the paper (which I can't seem to find). If I get time, I'll see if the times for the Ready or this mystery cinema were in the South Bend Tribune. AJG  |  IP: Logged Claude S. Ayakawa Film God Posts: 2738 From: Waipahu, Hawaii, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 07-11-2013 04:30 PM                        Honolulu did not get DTS when JURASSIC PARK was released but got it almost a year later. I did however get to see the movie in DTS about a week after it had opened at the Kabuki 8 in San Francisco on my way home from a national photographers convention. I saw the movie again here in Honolulu in Dolby Surround at the Kahala #1 a few weeks later with the DTS intro trailer. Strange, they should show the trailer when the movie was not in DTS. -Claude  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 07-11-2013 07:37 PM                     My memory is absolutely positive on these, as I was running both locations. quote: Michael Coate Dallas – General Cinema NORTHPARK 1-2* DTS-6 on screen #1 THX w/Dolby CP200 DTS-6 on screen #2 w/Dolby CP200 quote: Michael Coate Plano – United Artists BERKELEY SQUARE 8* DTS-S on screen #4 THX w/Dolby CP55 DTS-6 on screen #5 THX w/Dolby CP200  |  IP: Logged Ron Lacheur Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 650 From: British Columbia, Canada Registered: Feb 2002 posted 07-11-2013 10:19 PM                     Correction on British Columbia, Cineplex Odeon Strawberry Hill didn't exist in 1993, it would have been Scott 72.  |  IP: Logged
