Epix does indeed hold the rights to Iron Man and Indiana Jones. In fact, those were two of the three movies that aired at launch point (the other one was Cloverfield).
A list of 2010 wide release titles that will appear on Epix:
Daybreakers
The Spy Next Door
From Paris With Love
Shutter Island
She’s Out Of My League
Hot Tub Time Machine
Why Did I Get Married Too
Kick-Ass
Iron Man 2
Killers
The Last Airbender
Middle Men
The Expendables
The Last Exorcism
Warrior
Buried
Alpha and Omega
Jackass 3-D
Paranormal Activity 2
Saw VII
Morning Glory
The Next Three Days
Red Dawn
True Grit
I can’t think of any Southern-based chains that would even think of serving Pepsi. Many hardcore Southerners shun Pepsi as “being a product of the Yankee North” (despite the fact that Pepsi was invented in North Carolina, a Southern state).
The theatre opened on October 18th, 1985 with Sweet Dreams, Better Off Dead, Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins, The Gods Must Be Crazy, Volunteers, Compromising Positions, Teen Wolf, The Backwoods Massacre, Weird Science, Silver Bullet, Marie and St. Elmo’s Fire as the opening engagements.
The latest news: Roger Ebert may make a return to television despite the loss of his voice (he has had a personalized voice synthiziser made for him though which duplicates the sound of his old voice, thanks to archived audio of Ebert before he was diagnosed with throat cancer).
I was watching Police Squad this week and noticed the the title screen has footage of Broadway (probably 1960’s stock footage). The Rivoli and a few other theatres appear.
Disney is shortening the window on Alice in Wonderland because they want to debut its new video-on-demand service with it. That’s understandable but why get it on VOD when a monthly Netflix subscription is cheaper?
The Crazies will be the next D-Box release. However, it looks to be playing as a moveover on the format as Arclight is selling tickets for it at midnight.
A few years back, France tried to protest shorter windows by having theatres not run Night At The Museum. This didn’t work mainly because Night At The Museum was a big moneymaker and the theatres wanted the additional coin.

I would hate to see the Glenwood Arts close.

Beverly Hills Cop with Eddie Murphy in attendance sounds good.
Needs some Tron.
I see that the promoter liked Bowfinger.

3-D cropping can be distracting in a way. Most 3-D prints of Avatar were matted and some effects were reduced as a result.
I was watching Police Squad this week and noticed the the title screen has footage of Broadway (probably 1960’s stock footage). The Rivoli and a few other theatres appear.
I can’t see this working due to the silver screen installation. Also, it seems like a step back in terms of technological advances.
It might work for second runs and reissues of older movies but otherwise, it will probably fail.
The theatre’s marquee made a brief appearance through a recreation in last year’s Watchmen (which is set in 1985).
Some of you guys are taking this way too seriously. The people who did this were just having fun and it is a good model after all.

Nothing says ultimate experience like the smell of trees.
The Arclight runs a lot of indie titles also.

That’s not really news, Fencsak. They also listed the UA East 85th Street in the same ad.
Opening engagements:
Air Force One (on three screens)
Good Burger
Ulee’s Gold
Nothing To Lose (moveover from the West Park 4)
Contact (moveover from the West Park 4)
Out To Sea
Hercules (moveover from the West Park 4)
My Best Friend’s Wedding (moveover from the West Park 4)

Looks like another 2012 case where Los Angeles gets the D-Box run later then.
Maybe it’s a special double bill for Oscar season (The Blind Side is up for Best Picture and Best Actress, Invictus is up for Best Actor).
Also, the posters for Clash Of The Titans and Hot Tub Time Machine are probably just for titles coming to the Chinese.
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.
