Screenland Armour Theatre in North Kansas City Harry Potter at the Screenland Armour Theatre in North Kansas City was brilliant! If you're a Harry Potter fan, you will enjoy the latest movie Harry Potter And The Deathly Hollows.

I was very impressed with the Screenland Theatre. The Art Deco design is fabulous! The atmosphere is very relaxed and welcoming. The service is prompt and friendly. What a great addition to the North Kansas City business strip!

The lobby consists of a full-service bar and six tables. It doesn't feel like a movie theatre lobbly at all.  You can have dinner and a drink in a relaxed atmosphere while waiting for your movie to start.

Screenland Armour was built in 1928 and served as a movie venue until the 1980's when it became a country & western bar for about 15 years. The current owner spent around $1.5 million in renovations; he had the good taste to retain much of the original architectural details. Art Deco Door Pull at Screenland in NKC

An artist from Hawaii was commissioned to do the frieze around the screen. The face at the top is modeled after her mother. The robot, to the side of the screen, was done by a local artist who operates by our downtown Grinders in the Crossroads Art District.

robot Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was awesome! I don't remember Dumbledore having a brother in the books, but he fit into the plot quite well. Hagrid, Professor McGonagall and all the favorite characters were there. Snapes turns out to be a noble hero. Voldemort remains evil to the end. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny live happily ever after.

Maria, I'm a big Harry Potter fan. I started reading Harry Potter with my grandson when he was 8. Now he's 18. I can't wait to see this movie.

Donna, you'll love it! The only bad part of this Harry Potter movie is that it's the last one. I wish JK Rowling could find just one more Harry story to write another book. ^_^

The older Art Deco designed movie theaters are the best.  When I was growing up, we had a movie theater that looked very much like the one you have pictured just around the corner.  It was wonderful.  They showed 2 movies on Saturday, and then would change the venue overnight, so you could go back on Sunday for 2 more.  Admission was just 14 cents for a kid.  I was saturated with 4 movies each weekend.  It was my home away from home!

I have heard this Potter movie is one of the best in the series.  I don't recall Dumbledore having a brother either.  He is one of my favorite characters.

My daughter was disappointed with the opening date of this as this was the day she left for Girl Scout camp and now she has to wait.

Oh, Todd, I know she was disappointed but she'll have fun at Girl Scout Camp and then see Harry when she comes home.

That is what really sucks for her, the day she gets back, she has to wash her clothes, pack them again and then back out the next morning to church camp.
