Satellite Cinemas

Seats are a little tall in a couple of the theaters, making movie watching kind of a strain for short people.
Also, you can at times hear sounds from the adjacent theaters which can be distracting and take away from the viewing experience.
But beside those complaints, I enjoy this establishment. It’s never freezing cold or uncomfortably crowded. Also, they accept Dealflicks, so that definitely steers me away from driving to Merritt Island (because they don’t).

I have lived in Titusville for 25 years and I used to be a regular at Sears town movie theater but I stopped going because it had really been neglected and run down. For years I’ve been told that Sears town theater had been remodeled. I always hesitated to go back because I remembered how run down it was and could not believe that they were asking people to pay to sit through the smell and filth. I took my son to watch the avengers «in Real 3-​D» today. We did not enjoy our selves at all. The glasses they gave us were pulled from under a cabinet they were not individually packed «unsanitary» the pair I got were all scratched up and my sons were bent you couldn’t see through one eye. The theater room we went into had a horrible sour smell the seats were very uncomfortable the floor was concrete painted gray very tacky when we walked on it. The picture was in very poor quality. I also noticed throughout the picture part of the film was missing around the frame. There were subtitles of locations to identify where you were that you couldn’t read because part of the word was not in frame. You can hear the sounds coming through the walls from the other theaters making it very hard to hear what the characters were saying. We could also hear noises coming from above and behind us where the picture was coming from it was very distracting. I noticed other reviews complementing the new remodel these reviewer’s must have low expectations or have personal relationship with the theater. The remodel was embarrassing and cheaply done, the stars hanging up all over the place looks like outdoor garden decorations and all the different colors everywhere made it look like a day care center. Satellite cinemas you really miss the ball on this one I will never go there again and I will tell my friends and family not to go there either. I really wasted my time and my money visiting you today that will never happen again. It’s worth the drive to go to Orlando or Merritt Island instead, they have a much better quality picture, sound and facilities. I will find every social media outlet to warn everyone. Your behavior towards your patrons are the reason we keep losing business in this town you should be embarrassed. I’m only one review but if I made the time to write a review you know there are a lot more of me that didn’t have the time or don’t know how.

Finally decided to forego the drive to Merritt Island for our local theater. I hadn’t been there since they remodeled and Satellite took over. Was a tad disappointed. It’s nice that it was remodeled, and it seems cleaner. The seats are new and now have the cup holder armrests that lift up. The problem is the seats are so tall you can’t see over them! The backs of them were taller than me. I had to sit clear up in my seat or lean over into the aisle to see the movie. It’s obvious that whoever ordered the new seats didn’t take into account that the slope of the floor wasn’t deep enough for the tall backed seats they ordered.
Oh and my other complaint is the price of the snacks! Come on, $ 7.00 for a slurpee! For just me, a medium popcorn, small slurpee ($ 6.00) and admission was $ 20! Way too steep!
Sorry, although I like to support my local business, I’ll drive the extra miles to Merritt Island for the better seats that I can at least see over. Good luck!

An excellent independent theater
Part of the joy I get in traveling for business is that I get to dine and experience local establishments that are independent. Rarely do I find a movie house that is open for regular business and independent. The Satellite Cinema in Titusville, is an excellent example of an independent theater. Pricing is on par with the chains so don’t expect a break here. I caught an early matinée and paid seven dollars for the movie and five dollars for the medium Coke.
It’s obvious that this place recently underwent a renovation as the carpet, walls and overall feel seems fresh and new, a stark contrast from the mall that it is located within. The traditional movie posters have been replaced with very cool computer monitors turned on their side showcasing not only a trailer of the movie but the poster as well. This is ingenious and technologically on par with where we should be in movie theaters. There is no obvious ticket stand you actually walk up the ramp and to the concession stand to purchase your movie tickets and snacks at the same time. I’m certain during busy hours this may be a bit tedious but I was literally the only person when I arrived.
The rest of the lobby has some video games against one of the walls, along with a claw machine. None of the games looked all to modern and to be honest it probably would’ve been better for them to be gone rather than to be there as they sort of detracted from the «modern» feel of the rest of the place.
I was in theater number four which was a small theater and which had a center aisle that was quite large. In fact it was so large I think it probably took up about three seats in width. I bring this up because I typically sit in the center of the movie theater and I try to also be in the center of the screen I could do neither in this particular theater which was a little unnerving for me initially. I also found that the slope of this particular theater was slightly less than it needed to be based on the new comfy seats that they now had. These seats have high backs and my 6 foot one frame fit quite nicely. I’m certain that they didn’t have much to work with but this might have been a case where they could have redesigned the room to have left and right aisles and push the seats together in order to be able to have center screen seats. The lighting located in the theater was quite pleasing. The theater features backlit stars on the wall which act as sconces. The overhead lighting was so pleasing I don’t even remember looking up to figure out what kind of light it was. This is a stark contrast to many theater chains which utilize large halide lights the kind you find in stadiums, which are obnoxious. When they dim the lights for the movies start, I found that the dimmed lights were perfect and non-​interfering. The sound in this particular theater was clear and crisp. I was seeing an action movie and at no point did I ever have to strain to hear dialogue or wince when large explosions occurred. The picture was also bright and clear it seemed like it was digital. I’m not sure if this particular theater supports digital but if they don’t the film quality was excellent.
Worthy of noting my medium Coke didn’t have that bad watered-​down Coke taste that you might find in some of the chains as well. I don’t ever expected to be as good as McDonald’s Coke but it was decent nonetheless.
Overall I’d have to say that this is an excellent theater worthy of any first-​run movie watch as many of the popular movies will be in theaters one and two that do not have the weird center aisle problem that I experienced, at least as far as I could tell peeking my head in to the theater. In addition, because it’s not the chain it might not always be jampacked either, which would be great for some of the first runs. If you’re in town when you’re looking for some entertainment this is a good place to start.

I love the new look of the movie theater
the sound system is awesome
and it is perfect for people who uses wheelchairs
The downside is the snacks are way too expensive

Was a little nervous venturing here because the mall that it is in is quite sad, but the whole theater was newly remodeled, and everything is clean and comfortable. We were running a little late for the movie, but my fiancé wanted a pretzel instead, the employee offered to bring it to him inside the theater when it was done so we wouldn’t miss anything. We will be back!
