Cinionic Expands into Japan with Toho Cinemas

PRESS RELEASE

Toho Cinemas has selected Cinionic laser cinema projection for its new Tachikawa location, opened in September 2020. The theater is the first laser site powered by Cinionic for Toho Cinemas, one of Japan’s largest exhibitors with over 679 screens across 72 locations. Cinionic, the Barco, CGS, and ALPD cinema joint venture will provide a technology mix that includes Barco Series 4 and Barco Smart Laser units to power the multiplex.

This announcement expands Cinionic’s presence in Japan, the fourth largest film market in the world. Cinionic has more than 90,000 projectors installed globally, including over 20,000 laser projectors in the field.  

“We are honored to be selected by Toho Cinemas to bring Cinionic’s all-laser solutions and future-ready technology to a market as passionate about film and cinema as we are,” said Wim Buyens, CEO, Cinionic. “We look forward to working with our local partners to expand our laser footprint in Japan for a brighter moviegoer experience.”

Harnessing the power of laser-projection from Cinionic, theaters benefit from significant cost-savings and a reduced carbon footprint with up to 70% less power consumption and no more waste from lamps. The laser transition offers millions of moviegoers a greener way to go to the cinema.

Box Office Top 10: One-Word Title Movies

One of the first tentpole films scheduled for release post-shutdown is Tenet , debuting starting August 26 overseas and September 3 domestically. That one-word title runs counter to the increasing 2010s trend of longer titles, from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 . Looking at the highest-grossing film domestically from each year of the 1980s, one had a single-word title: Batman in 1989. Two did in the 1990s: Aladdin  in 1992 and  Titanic in 1997. Two did again in the 2000s: Spider-Man in 2002 and  Avatar in 2009. Yet none did in the 2010s. As the summer movie season (such as it is) rolls on, Boxoffice Pro presents the 10 highest grossing films with one-word titles. Note: this list is ordered by domestic revenue earned during a film’s original theatrical run. It does not take into account admissions, re-releases, or figures adjusted for inflation.  #1:  Avatar James Cameron’s 2009 3-D science-...
