This theatre opened on March 5, 1998 as Huntsville's first theatre with digital sound, stadium seating, and adjustable screen masking in all auditoriums. The first night (a Thursday), the theatre ran a bunch of movies, all $1.00 each, all starting at 8:00. The next night, on Friday, March 6, 1998, the theatre began normal business showing new movies. Click here if you are interested in seeing the movies that ran at this theatre on the first two nights of business. This theatre has Christie projectors and Strong platters. Some previous managers: Clayton Snell (1998), Eric Qualls (1999), Julius Pirie Scott (1999-2000), Debra Caldwell (2000-2001), Rick Walker (2001-2002) [current manager]

When this theatre opened, it was Carmike's first theatre in Huntsville since the University 6 had closed back in May of 1996. Although many older Carmike facilities have not been well-maintained, the Carmike 10 has been well-kept so far. This is the first theatre in Huntsville actually built by Carmike.

The Carmike 10 uses Strong platters and Christie projectors. Four auditoriums, numbers 1, 5, 6, and 10, are THX-certified. Auditoriums 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, and 10 have DTS and auditoriums 4, 5, 6, and 7 have Dolby Digital sound.

Screens have a slight curvature and range from 10 feet in height in smaller auditoriums to 15 feet in height in the larger auditoriums. Adjustable side screen masking is used in all auditoriums.

Seats at the Carmike 10 have high backs and are more comfortable for long movies than seats at most other theatres.

Presentation quality at this theatre has been good overall so far. So far, this theatre has had the best presentation quality in Huntsville, outscored only by the Regal River Oaks Cinema 8 in Decatur, AL.

List of movie presentations attended:

2004/11/22 21:30, Auditorium 5
Polar Express

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 1.0000)
• Image comments: Excellent.
• Audio comments: Dolby Digital/THX. Excellent.

• Problem codes: none

2004/09/21 19:30, Auditorium 3
Without a Paddle

• Grade: -1 (Current grade weight : 0.9576)
• Image comments: Masking was set to scope before movie started. When the projector was started, the previews and movie were in scope format, projected with the correct lens and aperture, but the masking moved in to the flat position, with the image going on the curtains. This was corrected after I went out to notify the staff. (-1)
• Audio comments: DTS.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 30 feet. Screen width: 27 feet (scope mode). Scope film (super35).
• Problem codes: m1

2004/07/30 21:40, Auditorium 10
Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 0.9222)
• Image comments: Excellent.
• Audio comments: DTS/THX.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 24 feet (flat mode). Flat film. One-perf out-of-frame splice in previews, but an operator corrected the framing immediately when it occurred.
• Problem codes: none

2004/05/14 19:00, Auditorium 1
Troy

• Grade: -1 (Current grade weight : 0.8694)
• Image comments: One trailer spliced in one perforation out of frame in previews. (-1) Image quality during movie was excellent.
• Audio comments: DTS/THX. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 31 feet (scope mode), 24 feet (flat mode). Scope film, filmed in Super 35. Only one commercial was shown (a Marines advertisement) before the previews, which was a nice break from the 10 that are often shown before previews these days.
• Problem codes: M1

2004/02/01 19:00, Auditorium 10
Big Fish

• Grade: -1 (Current grade weight : 0.7979)
• Image comments: Uneven aperture shadow on top edge of screen. (-1)
• Audio comments: DTS. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 24 feet (flat mode). Flat film. 4 commercials were shown before the previews.
• Problem codes: A1

2003/11/25 19:30, Auditorium 4
Looney Tunes: Back in Action

• Grade: -2 (Current grade weight : 0.7521)
• Image comments: Approximately 4 inches of black across bottom of screen not due to aperture shadow, but due to black space at bottom of frame due to slight misframing. (-1)
• Audio comments: Dolby Digital. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 30 feet. Screen width: 24 feet (scope mode), 19 feet (flat mode). Scope film (super35 with animation added). Projector started 16 minutes late. (-1). The likely cause for the lateness is that I verified that of the 7 people in the auditorium, 5 of the stubs (and probably all 7) said 7:15 although we all had asked for the 7:30. The computer showed no buyers for tickets to the 7:30, so it was not started until a customer went to the lobby to inform them that 7 customers were in auditorium 4 for the 7:30. When projector was started, the policy trailer, and one movie trailer was played, then the movie started, a rarity nowadays. (No commercials! That's a good thing! It appears that Carmike has not followed Regal in showing an excessive number of rolling stock commercials before the previews.) Screen scope aspect ratio was no wider than 2.22:1 (a 7.1 percent deviation from the standard 2.39:1, which is within the 10 percent tolerance I allow).
• Problem codes: M1 T1

2003/09/10 19:45, Auditorium 1
Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star

• Grade: -3 (Current grade weight : 0.7000)
• Image comments: Image went beyond left edge of screen past black masking onto drapes and image lacked 1 foot reaching right edge of screen. (-3)
• Audio comments: DTS/THX. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 31 feet (scope mode), 24 feet (flat mode). Scope film, filmed with an anamorphic lens. The credits contain many former child TV stars from long ago singing a song. When projector was started, just one trailer was played, then the movie started, a rarity nowadays.
• Problem codes: A3

2003/08/28 19:15, Auditorium 7
Grind

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 0.6917)
• Image comments: Excellent.
• Audio comments: Dolby Digital. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 30 feet. Screen width: 20 feet (flat mode). Flat film. Much of the credits contain outtakes.
• Problem codes: none

2003/07/24 19:00, Auditorium 10
Johnny English

• Grade: -1 (Current grade weight : 0.6681)
• Image comments: Top edge had slight aperture shadow fading on parts of the edge. (-1)
• Audio comments: THX/DTS. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 24 feet (flat mode). Flat film. There is a short scene in the middle of the credits.
• Problem codes: A1

2003/06/27 19:45, Auditorium 10
Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle

• Grade: -3 (Current grade weight : 0.6493)
• Image comments: Flat Carmike policy trailer shown with scope lens and aperture. (-1) Slight shutter ghosting at bottom of image. (-1)
• Audio comments: THX/DTS. Excellent during movie. When flat to scope transition occurred during previews, audio was totally lost for all of the following two movie previews and half of a third one. (-1)
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 31 feet (scope mode), 24 feet (flat mode). Scope film, filmed in Super35.
• Problem codes: R1 G1 a1

2003/06/25 19:30, Auditorium 6
Dumb and Dumberer

• Grade: -2 (Current grade weight : 0.6479)
• Image comments: 4 flat trailers were played with scope lens and aperture, making everything look twice as wide as it should have been and causing the image to often not fill the screen vertically. The Dolby Digital trailer was a scope one, played with flat lens and aperture, with analog sound. The THX trailer was covered with black dirt specks and dropped out of digital sound at the end. The projector stopped twice during the previews: once seconds after being started initially, and once during the trailer that came attached to reel 1 of the movie. (-2) The movie itself was presented perfectly. Please note that it is my policy to not deduct more than 2 points for problems during previews that do not affect the movie itself.
• Audio comments: Dolby Digital/THX. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 42 feet. Screen width: 27 feet (flat mode). Flat film. This show was supposed to start at 7:30, but the projector was started at 7:14. Conflicting information concerning showtimes was given. The lighted poster signs had 7:10 as the only 7ish showtime, while the LED panel at the box office had 7:00 and 7:30 as the showtimes. I believe the projector operator thought that 7:10 was the time to start the machine instead of 7:30. Nobody arrived late, so nobody missed the beginning of the movie as a result. The movie itself did not start until 7:30.
• Problem codes: R2

2003/05/29 19:30, Auditorium 1
Bruce Almighty

• Grade: -4 (Current grade weight : 0.6299)
• Image comments: Focus slightly off in parts of image (noticeably soft in center and left of center). (-1).
• Audio comments: THX/DTS. There were two distracting audio problems, one of which was not the theatre's fault. DTS Sound began cutting out around halfway through the movie. Often, every few seconds, the DTS would kick back in, then drop out again, resulting in very noticeable shifts in the sound field. This was caused by defective reels. Many theatres have experienced problems with DTS on reel 3 of this movie (and many have also had problems with reel 4). Most of the second half of movie played in analog with mild but distracting distortion of the talking under water variety, due to the analog sound not being setup properly. (-3) There was originally an additional -4 deduction for the digital dropout, but I had to remove it due to the problem being with the print received rather than the theatre's equipment.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 24 feet (flat mode). Flat film.
• Problem codes: f1 d3

2003/03/24 19:15, Auditorium 1
Bringing Down the House

• Grade: -8 (Current grade weight : 0.5847)
• Image comments: 1 to 2 feet of black at right side of screen. Image off-center 2 feet to left (center of film image projected 2 feet left of screen center), which was quite distracting. Slight shadow of left edge from tape on port glass to compensate for the off-centeredness. Slight fading on top edge. Approximately 2 feet of the leftmost side of image was lost due to off-centeredness. (-7 for all alignment problems combined). DTS and THX trailers were flat versions shown with the scope lens and aperture. (-1)
• Audio comments: DTS. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 24 feet (flat mode), 31 feet (scope mode). Scope film, filmed in super35.
• Problem codes: A7 R1

2003/03/13 19:45, Auditorium 2
Old School

• Grade: -2 (Current grade weight : 0.5771)
• Image comments: At flat to scope changeover during previews, aperture plate did not move to proper position, stopping halfway between flat and scope position with a vertical blank area on the screen with the two apertures visible on each side (scope on left, flat on right) with the soundtrack projected at the left front corner of the auditorium. (-1) Fading on top right edge. (-1).
• Audio comments: DTS. Exccellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 30 feet. Screen width: 20 feet (flat mode), 24 feet (scope mode). Scope film, filmed in super35 with Clairmont lenses.
• Problem codes: A2

2003/02/15 19:00, Auditorium 6
Daredevil

• Grade: -2 (Current grade weight : 0.5576)
• Image comments: At flat to scope changeover during previews, aperture plate did not move to proper position. Soundtrack and DTS time code were projected on wall to left of screen while the right 4 feet of the screen was black. This was fixed 5 to 10 minutes into the previews. This problem has been occurring on scope films in this auditoriums since August 2001. (-2)
• Audio comments: Dolby Digital. THX. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 42 feet. Screen width: 27 feet (flat mode). 35 feet (scope mode). Scope film (super35).
• Problem codes: A2

2002/12/25 19:20, Auditorium 7

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 0.5188)
• Image comments: Excellent.
• Audio comments: DTS/THX. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width (flat mode): 24 feet. Credits claim Filmed in Panavision, which is false. The movie was in flat format. There is an outtake in the credits of Billy Crystal trying to get one of the scenes right.
• Problem codes: none

2002/09/19 21:10, Auditorium 5
Stealing Harvard

• Grade: -1 (Current grade weight : 0.4563)
• Image comments: Fading on right edge. (-1)

• Problem codes: none

2002/01/02 19:45, Auditorium 6
Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

• Grade: -4 (Current grade weight : 0.2778)
• Image comments: At scope changeover, aperture plate was out of alignment, showing the soundtrack area of the film on the left side of the image and blocking the right portion of the image (one foot to a foot and a half). This was fixed before the movie started, but the top and right edges had several inches of fading. (-4).
• Audio comments: Dolby Digital/THX. Excellent
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 42 feet. Screen width: 27 1/2 feet (flat mode), 35 feet (scope mode). Scope film, filmed in super35.

Monsters, Inc.

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 0.2604)
• Image comments: Excellent.
• Audio comments: THX/DTS. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 24 feet (flat mode). Flat film, animated, hard matted print. This was the first night that this movie was shown with Pixar's outtakes in the credits. I had intended to see Novocaine, but that movie did not show in Huntsville. It got pulled because it was too mature for Huntsville. Another note: If you were in a theatre and the floor shook at 7:08, it was likely not the bass from the sound system, but an earthquake (3.9 magnitude) 20 miles east of Huntsville. I felt it when it happened.
• Problem codes: none

2001/11/15 20:00, Auditorium 6
Monsters, Inc.

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 0.2451)

Max Keeble's Big Move

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 0.2174)
• Image comments: Excellent.
• Audio comments: THX/Dolby Digital. Excellent. One reel arrived at the theatre with defective Dolby Digital. A replacement reel had been requested. (no deduction, since this was not the theatre's fault.)
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 42 feet. Screen width: 27 feet (flat mode). Flat film.
• Problem codes: none

2001/08/24 19:20, Auditorium 6
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

• Grade: -2 (Current grade weight : 0.1889)
• Image comments: After scope changeover, aperture plate was out alignment, showing the soundtrack area of the film on the left side of the image and blocking part of the right portion of the image. This was fixed before the movie started, but the alignment was still off for most of the movie, showing 6 inches of black on the left side of screen. It was later adjusted near the end of the movie, showing a slight bit of black on the right side of the screen. (-2)
• Audio comments: Dolby Digital/THX. Two of the reels of the movie did not play in digital and played in analog. These two reels had no Dolby Digital soundtrack, so it was not the theatre's fault, so therefore, I cannot deduct for this problem, although it was distracting.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 42 feet. Screen width: 27 feet (flat mode), 34 feet (scope mode). Scope film, filmed in super35.
• Problem codes: A2

2001/07/06 21:45, Auditorium 10

Moulin Rouge

• Grade: -2 (Current grade weight : 0.1361)

• Audio comments: Digital. Excellent. DTS trailer was played, but sign outside auditorium indicated Dolby.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 32 feet. Screen width: 20 feet (flat mode), 26 feet (scope mode). Scope film. Filmed in Panavision. This auditorium had an unpleasant odor which seemed to be from carpet getting wet and not being cleaned (mold/mildew).
• Problem codes: A2

2001/04/14 19:15, Auditorium 5

Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Stole Christmas

• Grade: -1 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)

Road Trip

• Grade: -6 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)
• Image comments: Slight fading on left edge. (-1).
• Audio comments: THX/DTS. Sound defaulted to optical repeatedly during a 5-10 minute portion of the movie (in and before the car jump scene). The optical level was much lower, making the change very noticeable and distracting. Several trailers played at a very low volume due to lack of digital sound, and the THX trailer had no audio at all. (-5)
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width (flat mode): 24 feet. Flat film.

2000/03/18 19:30, Auditorium 1
American Beauty

• Grade: -12 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)
• Image comments: Slight fading on top and left edges. (-2) Serious fading/dimming on bottom 20 percent of image on left side of screen, due to broken douser. This was quite distracting. (-7) During the previews, when the changeover to scope was first made, this problem affected the entire bottom 20 percent of the image with one third of the left side dimmed. I went out and told someone and the problem was fixed, but came back (with less severity) within a couple of minutes.
• Audio comments: DTS/THX. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium width: 40 feet. Screen width: 24 feet in flat mode, 31 feet in scope mode. Super35/scope film. Scene where Ricky shows Jane the Nazi plates of Colonel Frank Fitts was missing from the movie. (-3)

Hanging Up

• Grade: -3 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)

• Image comments: Excellent.
• Audio comments: THX/DTS. Excellent.
• Other comments: Auditorium: 40 feet. Screen: 24 feet in flat mode, 31 feet in scope mode. Scope film, appeared to have been filmed with an anamorphic lens. First 15 minutes or so of movie was 1.85:1 with black on the sides. Afterwards, the image was 2.39:1. This was the first time I'd seen the DTS trailer that had the inside of a piano.
• Problem codes: none

1999/11/24 12:00, Auditorium 1
Toy Story 2

• Grade: -5 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)
• Image comments: Left edge not clean. Aperture plate/projector aim problem. (-1) All previews were shown out of frame (about 1.5 feet on the screen too low. (-1)
• Audio comments: THX. One of the digital formats. There was no output from the surround speakers. (-3)
• Other comments: Auditorium: 40 feet wide, 66 feet deep. Screen width: 24 feet (flat mode). This movie was in the flat format. 60 to 70 percent of the people in this showing were small children, so I expected a lot of noise, crying, and other distractions. I was impressed, and truly amazed at the good behavior of this audience. I don't think I heard any stray talking or babies crying a single time during the movie. The stray noise and distraction level was as good as any showing I've attended with a nearly full auditorium. If this showing did not sell out, it came really close. It was sad to see that two different reels of this print had damage, and this was the first showing of this film at this theatre.

• Image comments: Excellent.

The auditorium lights were not completely turned down until 25 minutes after the starting of the projector, but they were not bright enough to hurt the presentation, or to be a distraction.

This showing sold out, as did the other 3 Star Wars showings at the same time. Audience was surprisingly quiet and unresponsive, laughing and clapping very little, except for the 3 guys to my immediate right, who had to talk and giggle about every single thing all through the movie every few seconds. I arrived at the theatre around 10:15 with TV news crews present and a long line outside the building, and 5 minutes later, we were let into the auditoriums. Ticket stubs were checked on entry to the auditorium, and on every reentry (from restroom, concession area, etc.). Theatre had a lot of staff there, and I saw one guy from the Decatur Carmike there.

• Grade: -2 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)
• Image comments: Film misframed slightly causing image not to touch top edge. Occasionally, a very tiny sliver of the adjacent frame could be seen at the top during a few scenes. It was barely noticeable and was not enough to be distracting. (-2) This print had some white specks along its right edge that were about one foot from the right edge of the screen, and they ran all the way through the movie. This was a print problem and was not the fault of the theatre.

• Image comments: Masking not pulled in far enough, making left and right edges look bad, fading out roughly 6 inches from the screen edge in places. (-4) Framing: misframed one foot too high, very obvious on some previews, and not as obvious in the movie itself, but I noticed centering problems in many scenes because of it. (-2) Automation: When credits started, the film sound stopped and the intermission music started. The credits continued to roll on the screen, but the image on screen was significantly dimmed. (-1)

• Other comments: Flat film: screen width 18 feet, auditorium width 30 feet. This film looked very grainy. The graininess was so bad in some scenes that it called attention to itself, but, of course, this is not the theatre's fault. Film was very tightly cropped, but it did not appear to be due to improper framing on the theatre's part. On the internet, I got some comments from another projectionist who noticed that horrendous framing and it was due to the poor cinematography, and the super-16 to 35mm blowup, and it was not the fault of the theatre.

• Grade: -4 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)
• Image comments: Image focus and stability were perfect. Masking was a few inches from the left and right edges due to a broken chain. The left and right edges looked fuzzy and slightly curved as a result. (-4)
• Audio comments: Could not tell if audio was optical or digital. The audio was terrific.
• Other comments: While talking to the manager before the movie, he mentioned the broken masking chain which caused the masking in that auditorium to be unable to move to its proper position, and said that a technical person would have to come in and fix it.

• Audio comments: Was advertised as THX. However, when the THX trailer was played, there was no noticeable output from the surround speakers, and the same was true for all the previews and the entire movie. (-3) The sound was very good, though, and the lack of surround did not detract much from this movie. I cannot be sure if the sound actually heard was digital or optical.

Primary Colors

• Grade: -12 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)
• Image comments: During all previews and first 10 minutes of movie, film was misframed. During hard-matted flat trailers, the top of the image was 1.5 feet from top of screen. When they switched to scope, the frame division was about 1 foot from the top of the screen, causing a strip from the bottom of the image to be at the top, which was distracting.

Air Force One

• Grade: 0 (Current grade weight : 0.0000)
• Image comments: Focus seemed off by a slight bit. I have read several sources stating that the soft, somewhat unfocused effect was intentional in this movie. Also, this was a super-35-filmed movie, and super-35 movies are grainier and not as sharp as Panavision and Cinemascope movies, anyway. This is not the theatre's fault.
• Audio comments: Digital (either DTS or Dolby Digital THX); Flawless.
