The Palladio Mall construction has not ended. Currently most of the work is being done on the interiors of the buildings and the theater is supposed to open in 2010. Not sure when in 2010 though.

I guess the good thing about the mall is the road going thru it is a great shortcut from Broadstone Pkwy to Iron Point. I think most people have no idea it actually goes thru.

Yes, it is open. We have been cutting through there for awhile now.

Can't wait until we get the new theater opened.

I've talked to the owner (Cinema West) and they are shooting to open on December 11th, 2009... we'll see, it's going to be tight. I'm selling products to them and have been on the jobsite often and think that the theater will be a success. All rooms will have stadium seating and digital projectors versus analog which should give it a picture and sound quality advantage over El Dorado Hills. Barnes & Noble and Whole Foods are slated to open next year.

Whole Foods did not pull out, but I believe they renegotiated both the later opening date as mentioned, as well as a scaled down store. It was a corporate goal around a year ago (right before the Roseville store opened) to scale down any proposed stores that still had the ability to be scaled down.

And ANOTHER movie theatre!?!?!? 3 in the Folsom area is waaaaay too many...they're gonna be spread too thin...and then once the one at Bradshaw opens (16 more screens)....talk about oversupply.

I only know of one movie theater in Folsom and that is across from the Folsom outlets. When the one in Palladio opens that is two. Where is the third?

So these places think they're going to be open for Christmas but they're missing the post-Thanksgiving rush? That's gonna be a slow start for them...

I think he/she was referring to EDH.

I honestly think the Palladio theatre will be the death of Century.

I can only dream that someone will turn it into an Alamo Drafthouse:

Mylo, I agree, Century will be gone. It has been a mess for quite some time now. We quit going there after the one in EDH opened.

Wouldn't it be better for Folsom to get the revenue from a theater here, than to lose it to the one in El Dorado Hills?

My husband and I haven't gone to the Folsom Century in years, because of the filthy way they keep it. It has been so sad to see this perfectly good theater go to waste here in Folsom. The only alternative has been to go to the theater in El Dorado Hills.

I will be glad when there are other theaters like the one at Bradshaw, so those in that community will have their own. There is never enough competition in business, in my opinion. When competition isn't there, consumers lose.

I hope the theatres in Palladio Mall have great popcorn like the popcorn at the theatres near the outlets......The EDH theatres' popcorn isn't as good. I won't go to EDH if Folsom is playing the same movie for that reason. Does anyone else notice that the Century buttered popcorn is addicting?????? yummmm; it's not just me either, my kids noticed it too!

Funny, my wife always wants to go to Century just because of their popcorn, but I think it's because they have a Kettle Corn or equivalent. Half the time I can't convince her that stadium seating and better video and sound outweighs the popcorn. It would be nice if Palladio had both smile.gif Although, I'd still go to Alamo Drafthouse over either any day!

I hope the scaled down store still has a fresh seafood counter - I recently went to a seafood cooking class at the Kitchen Academy, and the chef there recommended Whole Foods as a place to buy fresh seafood.
I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
