Does anybody know where the largest screen in the USA is?
Also, where is the biggest (by that I mean most screens) cineplex at, and how many screens does it have? Just questions cause I'm curious.

I don't know if it's THE largest, but I know Seattle's Cinerama is huge. I think it's 90 feet wide and 30 feet tall. I saw the re-issue of "The Exorcist" there a few years back. It was impressive.

I think the biggest cineplexes must be the various AMC 30's around the country. I don't think there's anything much bigger than 30 screens.

The largest multiplexes are AMC30s, of which there are several, but none have more screens.

The largest screen anywhere is the Boston Science Museum Omni-IMAX3d, which is the last I saw somewhere around 140', but that's hard to figure based on how it works.

The largest indoor direct screens are held in several locations that have newer 87' / 90' screens. many of these are being rolled out in new divided theaters by Legends and Loewes.

Many of the 87' initials are fit for the 90' spread right now and several have used exactly that. Most of these theater designs have a main area and a balcony to accommodate the presentation.
