The Arizona Republic is reporting that the new UltraStar Scottsdale Pavilion 11 in Scottsdale, Arizona is planning to open to the public on Friday, November 19, 2010:

Imagine while watching the latest Oscar-worthy flick at the movie theater, you get a little hungry. Instead of getting up and waiting in line, just press that little button on your armrest. A waiter appears, and a few minutes later, he hands you a hot panini and glass of red wine.

This is what it's like to watch a movie in one of the 21-and-older-only auditoriums at Scottsdale's new all-digital UltraStar Cinemas. The San Diego-based movie theater opens at Scottsdale Pavilions Saturday and offers upscale amenities that can't be found in most movie theaters.

"We want to cater to every movie-going crowd, whether it's kids on a Saturday morning . . . or those who want to watch a movie in a classy, deluxe experience," said Damon Rubio, executive vice president of operations. "The whole mall we are in is getting renovated and soon all of us together will offer a great alternative experience."
