will clash be in 3d at this theater? Should be a fun ride with 3d and dbox.

The Arclight runs a lot of indie titles also.

Great history of this theatre.

Probably the next big film they will get will be Clash of the Titans, with DBOX at the Chinese 6.

Even the Westwood theaters have had better bookings! It’s pathetic, but I guess the logic is that tourists are the main audience for the Chinese anyway, so why do much more than is needed to please them…

So what’s next? BROOKLYN’S FINEST, one would hope. The Chinese usually doesn’t get Overture releases, but it doesn’t seem like securing this one (which skews a lot less indie and therefore less ArcLight) would be too hard.

Well, The Chinese is not getting Cop Out, Arclight has tickets for sale already for it. The Chinese will go through the entire month of February without a major release. Amazing.

Yes, and unless they take in an Academy return engagement or a moveover next week, it’ll still be there. All three films are booked at ArcLight Hollywood.

According to the LA Times ad, “Book Of Eli” is still in Grauman’s this week.

Well, The Wolf Man is not opening at Chinese, Arclight has tickets on sale now. On a ironic note, The Blind Side is moving back from Chinese 6 to Arclight this weekend. Looks like WB is expanding the run of Blind Side because of Oscars.

Looks like another 2012 case where Los Angeles gets the D-Box run later then.

ArcLight is getting “From Paris With Love”.

While the Chinese plays the regular version.

It looks like From Paris With Love will be the next engagement. The Chinese 6 will probably get the D-Box version.

COP OUT sounds right. They do seem to split the WB films between Arclight and Chinese.

Danny Baldwin
Danny Baldwin on February 2, 2010 at 5:24 pm

I’d say COP OUT is very likely given it’s WB. Whether they’ll get WOLFMAN or PERCY JACKSON in the meantime is anyone’s guess. Like HE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU, VALENTINE’S DAY appears to be getting the ArcLight treatment even though it’s WB.

Any idea of what they are getting as a February movie? WOLFMAN perhaps?

Saw “The Book of Eli” with my film club on 1/16 – 7:30 PM show. Crowd was roughly 300-400 folks. Ran on film, not DP.

Danny, yes, Avatar premiered at the Chinese. I don’t know if it was in 3D or not.

About 10 people. But it was the 10:45am show. The show afterwards seemed to be bigger. They have it on 2 of the 6 plex screens also.

Just went to see Sherlock Holmes; great presentation. The sound is amazing. They appear to be getting The Book of Eli next. Hopefully 2010 will be kinder than 2009 was to Grauman’s Chinese.

Didn’t AVATAR have its premiere at the Chinese in 3D?

They would need to install a second digital projector the run Avatar in 3D or at least to run it right because the screen is so big. They installed a two projector set up at the Cinerama Dome. Of course it would be nice to see Avatar at the Chinese.
