PRESS RELEASE

Cinionic partner Muvi celebrates the inauguration of its 103rd screen in Saudi Arabia this month with the opening of its new theater in the Mall of Dhahran. The site is the tenth for Muvi in 14 months since debuting their first location, having entered the market in 2019 as the country’s first homegrown theater chain. Equipped with 4K laser projection by Cinionic in every theater, Muvi has quickly grown to be one of the largest circuits in the region.

Muvi chose 4K projectors, including Barco Series 4, for the new theater. The Muvi multiplex at the Mall of Dhahran is home to 18 screens with 2,368 seats, making it one of the biggest theaters in the country. The luxury location features upscale interior design and multiple premium auditoriums.  

“Muvi Cinemas in its latest offering aims to fully immerse movie patrons in the magic of cinema through best-in-class theatrical technologies and seamless digital experience” said Adon Quinn, COO, Muvi Cinemas. “Cinionic was definitely a main pillar in our growth and will be for our expansion plan, as with their professionalism and dedication they have been able to accommodate our requirements and fulfill them.” 

“Cinema is growing rapidly in the Saudi market,” said Wim Buyens, CEO, Cinionic. “Audiences there have demonstrated a clear passion for the theatrical experience. With Cinionic’s industry-leading and state-of-the-art laser solution portfolio, Muvi continues to deliver the exceptional entertainment opportunities moviegoers are looking for today and tomorrow.”

Showcase Cinemas Brings Early Christmas Magic to the U.K.

Showcase Cinemas kicked off the Christmas season early, Home Alone -style—bringing the Christmas classic to their locations for a special event on Sunday, October 25.  Visitors to the 18 Showcase U.K. locations where Home Alone was screening—the only Showcase location to miss out was their Cardiff theater, as cinemas in Wales were closed—got a free gift of chocolate along with their screening. Attendees at Showcase’s Bluewater location, the chain’s highest-attended in the U.K., got a more interactive ‘Snowcase’ experience, complete with snow machines, Santa’s sleigh, and other Christmas-themed decorations. (Absent were Kevin McCallister-inspired booby traps; probably for the best.) Billed as the U.K.’s first Christmas screening of 2020, the Home Alone event was designed to inject a bit of joy into the lives of patrons in a time when every little bit is much needed. Says Showcase’s Sales and Marketing Director Jon Dixon, “People need that escapism,” which cinema is able to deliver...

Cinemark Q3 Earnings Reports: CEO Mark Zoradi Speaks on “Dynamic Theatrical Windows,” the Success of Private Rentals

Many of the questions asked of Cinemark CEO Mark Zoradi during this morning’s quarterly earnings call were about streaming and theatrical exclusivity—leading the CEO to offer some updates on their evolving windows policy as well as clarify other points about the chain’s status moving into the fourth quarter of 2020. At AMC’s Q3 earnings call, held earlier this week, CEO Adam Aron touted the chain’s deal with Universal, which can see the theatrical exclusivity window for that studio’s titles shrink from the traditional 72 days to as little as 17 at AMC theaters. Cinemark, Zoradi announced, will join AMC in playing upcoming Universal and Focus releases The Croods: A New Age , Freaky , and Let Him Go when they open in theaters this month. Cineworld, owner of Regal, the country’s second largest chain, has made no announcements about reopening the bulk of their theaters in the coming weeks, though none of the handful of Regal theaters open in NY and CA list showtimes for Focus Features’ ...
