Theater Near Me

We are building some tools to help you locate a theater near you. Until we have that complete, will be adding listings and information for ways you can find movie theaters in your area.

movies.aol.com has a “Movies, Showtimes & Ticket Search” tool where you can enter your ZIP code and go from there.

There is also an advanced search feature that allows you to search by movie title, by actors name, by genre, and by MPAA rating.

You can also do an advanced search for finding theaters. The tool allows you to search for theaters by distance, by theater amenities, or by theater chain.

Theater amenities that you can select include: online ticketing, handicap access, hearing-impaired services, enhanced sound, and enhanced seating.

There are dozens of theater chains, among the list is: Landmark Theatres, AMC Theatres, Cinemark Theatres, Mann Theatres, and United Artists Theatres.

movies.yahoo.com also has location based listings for movie theaters near you.

You can use the Yahoo Showtimes and Tickets tool to find a local theater. Enter your city and state or ZIP code to get local showtimes.

I often find most of these tools work better when using a ZIP code, since they are better targeted and there are no duplicates like there are with cities.

So for example if I do a search using the ZIP code 90291 (Venice, California) I’ll get a listing of theaters in my area which includes: AMC Loews Marina 6, UA Marina Del Rey, AMC Santa Monica 7, Laemmle’s Monica Fourplex, AMC Loews Broadway 4, and the Mann Criterion, among other theaters listed.

Below the listing of theaters is a database of movies playing in the area. I like this since I’m more interested in finding a movie I want to see and then finding out if the theater is near me.

There are dozens of such tools on different movie theater web sites. We’ll put together a list and post them here and will eventually get around to posting our own tool so that you’ll have one more way to find movies near you.
