Helix Neutral Newbie December 23, 2006 Share December 23, 2006 The shows at 2330h at the Cathay (not cineleisure). How's the jam like over the last night? I'm planning to skip the main stretch of Orchard Road by using Clemenceau Avenue and then turn towards Plaza Singapura. Are there any alternative routes? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueray Hypersonic November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 (edited) Cathay sells cinema chain for $230m The founding family that has run the historic home-grown Cathay movie theatre chain for more than 80 years is selling its local cinema operations for $230 million. Cathay Organisation's Cathay Cineplexes unit will become part of the expanding operations of entertainment company mm2 Asia, the backer of local films such as director Jack Neo's Ah Boys To Men. Under the terms of the deal announced yesterday, Cathay cineplex staff will stay on after the sale, which is expected to close by Nov 24. http://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/cathay-sells-cinema-chain-for-230m No wonder Cathay's movie selection very limited of late ...

Blueray Hypersonic November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 (edited) The cathay will be closing down end of this month? Until the new owner decides how to re-position and re-launch I suppose. Cathay name will remain I suppose. Edited November 3, 2017 by Blueray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see what this new operator does. Years back when The Cathay re-opened it was suppose to be the place for movie buffs, Picturehouse, shops selling movie posters and DVDs etc. Today The Cathay inside very quiet, and I guess if not for SOTA the place will be ghost town.
