…actually it’s $7.5 million in the url. It’s no New Moon, but should do well this weekend to dominate the box office at this theater this weekend. I’ve seen the trailer for babies and it will do well for moms day on sunday. That movie has gotten a lot better reviews than Iron Man 2, and will have legs and good word of mouth.

The midnight showing of Iron Man 2 in liemax is sold out, even though I won’t go see it in that format.

Looks like one screen will be used for Dragon 3D and Clash 3d and the other will be for Iron Man 2 in digital. Any word on more digital installations Slimshady soon, or is it held back? I was hoping that more digital screens would be added in the weeks to come.

Hahahaha…..MGM used to be a big studio back when studios were king. Now’s it’s a former shell of itself. If it doesn’t find a hit soon, then the lion will die and go up to hollywood heaven much like Miramax, Orion, RKO, and a few others. Viacom (Paramount’s owner) used to own Showtime until it broke up into Viacom and its former sub, CBS, which now owns Showtime and its own film unit, which isn’t doing too well as of late. FYI, both Viacom and CBS are controlled by Sumner Redstone’s National Amusements chain.

Guess what’s coming up in 3d? Yankees-Mariners in 3D!!! Here’s the link…http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2010/05/yankees-mariners-directv-3d.html
maybe AMC should show that series in 3D as customers don’t want to fork out extra cash for a 3D tv and glasses.

I know. That theater is in times square, not rockaway. Thankfully the AMC’s Empire won’t show it in liemax as they’re showing How to Train Your Dragon 3D in that format (Loews Kips Bay and 34th street will show it in liemax). The only real place to go there is the AMC Lincoln Square in IMAX as well as Palisades Center IMAX.

Checking showtimes for this coming friday, Iron Man 2 will be playing on two digital screens while Clash 3D and Dragon 3d will share one screen. What theater will get the digital install on friday? I’m ready to see Iron Man 2 digitally rather than a blurry 35mm print or a fake IMAX theater.

I think Epix has the rights to show Indy 4 and Iron Man and its sequels…here’s the link to the channel’s wiki page…http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epix_%28TV_network%29

BTW, I’m avoiding seeing Iron Man 2 in Fake Imax and seeing it in digital and or/ 35mm film, even though Iron Man 2 wasn’t shot in 4k.

When AMC opened this theater in 2000, it had all the major sound formats in that theater, not to mention 35mm film. Now all of the screens will have just one digital sound format and 4k screens.

digital is the rage nowadays with 3D movies being the culprit. Ever since Avatar came out, every big movie that’s coming out this year (with a few exceptions) is coming out in digital 3D. Was this theater evacuated yesterday due to the bomb scare?

Yesterday, there was a bomb scare in Times Square. Did this theater and the Regal across the street get evacuated due to the threat? Good job to the NYPD for preventing it from happening. BTW, I checked showtimes for this theater, looks like a bunch of movies are digital already. Good thing Iron Man 2 isn’t playing in Liemax here!!!

Went to this theater for “Nightmare”…it was a nightmare trying to get in after I bought my ticket because the ushers were asking everyone to show their ticket and the i.d. since it was an R-Rated movie. At least the movie was decent…it was in theater #12 and had so-so picture quality and great surround sound and deep bass. They brought back the AMC jungle trailer this time.

BTW, here’s a link to the current AMC trailer…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cnnbwXd6FY; wonder if they’ll make a new silence is golden trailer to accompany the old one that was used since 2003.

Iron Man 2 will be on the IMAX screen next weekend and will stay there for three weekends until Shrek 4 comes out. It marks the first time that the Rockaway IMAX will show a 2D film.

BTW, How to Train Your Dragon is having its last legs in digital 3D before leaving the theaters this weekend. Avatar is having its last weekend in IMAX 3D (same for Dragon). Alice is the only reald film to be shown and Clash will be in 2d form. Nightmare returns to Rockaway (the last nightmare movie, Wes Craven’s New NIghtmare, was at the old AMC in Rockaway) in form of a remake, and Furry Vengeance marks Brendan Frasier’s return to Rockaway since the third Mummy movie, which did ok in America but made lots of moolah outside the world. Sucks that Iron Man 2 isn’t playing here but in England on Friday. Can’t wait to hear what the box office is like.

So now both times square theaters will be digital by may…how exciting.

I think so. Star Wars in the 70’s, E.T. in the 80’s, and Titanic in the 90’s. Between 2000 and 2007 it was Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Spider-Man that did really well.
