Maasdam Moviesa

Does Maasdam have a movie theater? If not, do they show movies elsewhere on the ship?

The Wajang Theater is the place for movies. It is also the Cukinary Arts Center.

They usually show reasonably new movies.

The Wajang "Theater" has 2 really small screens, one on each side. Not much like watching in a theater, more like watching on a big screen tv.

[Krazy Kruizers]

I was always under the impression that when it is time for a movie to be shown, a BIG screne is lowered in front of the curtains which hide the "kitchen". This is in addition to the 2 small TV's.

 

The small TV's are also used for the cooking demonstrations.

This is correct. The TV's are not used during the movie only the big screen.

Thank you - I didn't think things had changed.

I was on the Maasdam in December 2007,went to the theater twice and both times the movie was shown on the 2 little screens, no big screen appeared

For every movie we've seen on the Veendam, Statendam, and Amsterdam, both the large screen AND the two small screens were used simultaneously. The small screens are beneficial for the people off to the sides of the room. SueCruz, they must have been having some kind of a problem with the large screen on your cruise, because it is not the norm to use just the TVs.

[Krazy Kruizers]

I agree that something must have been wrong with the big screen. All the ships have the same arrangement - 1 big screen in the middle and 2 smaller TV's - one on each side.

Has anyone been on the Maasdam since December? Did they use the larger theater screen?

 

We're going again in November and it would be nice to see a movie on the large screen instead of the "tv screens"

[Bobed1927]

Thank you all for your replies to my inquiry. I'm assuming that they still offer popcorn at the theater. After all, what would a movie be without popcorn?

[kzocruiser]

We were on the Maasdam in March 2008, and all 3 screens were used. And, yes, there was freshly popped popcorn, too.
