‘National Cinema Day’ To Offer $3 Movies At Participating Theaters

Abby De La Rosa has shared details about her “polyamorous relationship” with Nick Cannon in a new interview. While appearing on Tuesday’s episode of the Lovers and Friends with Shan Boodram podcast, Abby opened up expecting another baby with the TV personality, due in October, while Brittany Bell is also pregnant with his child. Abby and Nick already share Zion and Zillion, 15 months, while he has son Golden, five, and daughter Powerful Queen, 20 months, with Brittany.

Imax just cut a deal for six new big-screen installations in China this year — “a very positive development,” according to CEO Rich Gelfond. The company is a big player in the Chinese market, which is still strained by Covid lockdowns and in limbo for Western theatrical releases.

On the heels of National Cinema Day, a smaller event that debuted last year, called National Cinema Week, has set Oct. 7-13 for its second annual push to celebrate moviegoing in the U.S., Canada and the Caribbean.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Brandi Carlile livestreamed some intimate performances to fans’ computer screens during the heart of the pandemic, but now that everyone is out and about again, she’s taking the livestream experience very big, with plans to simulcast a live concert, “Brandi Carlile: In the Canyon Haze — Live from Laurel Canyon,” to more than 100 IMAX screens on Sept. 28. The IMAX presentation will include a full performance of her “In the Canyon Daze” album, set to come out that same day. The forthcoming release is a full-on remake of her “In These Silent Days” album, which came out last October, this time arranged with more of an acoustic bent and the vintage Laurel Canyon sound in mind.

In his role as one of this year’s ambassadors for UK National Album Day, Sam Ryder has announced a special launch show at London’s Lafayette later this month.I’m not sure that’s really in the spirit of a day that celebrates the art of the album. Everyone should be at home listening to albums, right? Though I guess the gig is not actually happening on the big day itself, so maybe it’s alright.And there is an album connection with the show, so that’s probably enough to swing it.

This was yet another soft weekend at the international box office with no major fresh titles and as summer fully closes out in Europe and beyond.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter A record number of people went to the movies on Saturday in honor of National Cinema Day. Thanks to heavily discounted tickets, an estimated 8.1 million moviegoers attended their local multiplex to purchase tickets for just $3, making Sept. 3 the highest-attended day of the year for theaters, according to the National Association of Theater Owners. In an effort to populate multiplexes during the dog days of summer, more than 3,000 theaters across the country, including major chains like AMC and Regal, were charging just $3 for admission to any movie in any format — far less expensive than the country’s average ticket price.

National Cinema Day is underway with 3,000+ participating theaters (30,00 screens) offering $3 tickets, discounted concessions and a four and a half-minute preshow sizzle reel with peeks of upcoming titles from A24, Amazon Studios, Disney, Focus Features, Lionsgate, Neon, Paramount, Sony and Sony Pictures Classics, United Artists Releasing, Universal and Warner Bros.

SATURDAY AM UPDATE: “Estimates aren’t worth a whole lot this morning thanks to the brilliant idea of National Cinema Day” cried one industry source to us this morning about the challenges for studio box office analysts to peg exactly what’s going to be No. 1 over the 4-day holiday weekend. Despite all good intentions by the Cinema Foundation to drive business over a slow weekend, taking a page out of the book from what’s been down in Spain to spike admissions, it’s not creating a windfall of cash for the marketplace, but several movies are projected to show a 150%-200% gain in their Saturday box office over Friday thanks to $3 tickets on National Cinema Day today.

cannon never gets tired of blasting off.On the red carpet at the 2022 VMAs Sunday, “Wild ‘N Out” siren Justina Valentine spoke candidly about the show’s fertile frontman Nick Cannon, who announced the impending birth of his tenth child last week.“One thing about Nick, he doesn’t vacation and neither does his junk,” Valentine, 35, told The Post after jokingly being asked if Cannon, 41, planned to launch a “Wild ‘N Out” day-care center for his brood.On Thursday, Cannon and former beauty pageant queen Brittany Bell, 34, revealed on Instagram that they are expecting their third child, which will be his tenth, together.The pair already have a 5-year-old son, Golden, and a 1-year-old daughter, Powerful Queen.“He’s a hard-working man, across the board,” Valentine added with a chuckle. And she isn’t the only lady in Cannon’s life to poke fun at his rampant fruitfulness.  Abby De La Rosa — who gave birth to his most recent set of twins, Zion and Zillion Cannon, in June 2021 and is currently pregnant with their third child — joked that the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” star is siring an entire generation. “Move over Kardashians, ‘Gen C’ is taking over baby,” penned De La Rosa, 32, as the in-text caption of an Instagram Story following Cannon and Bell’s virtual pregnancy announcement. She re-posted a clip from comedian Brian Moller, who wisecracked that Cannon’s 10 (and counting) kids might eventually “take on the Kardashians for world supremacy.”“And they said millennials aren’t having kids,” quipped Moller. “They’re not, Nick’s having them all!”Cannon’s incessant seed-spilling notwithstanding, he seems to be making an effort to spend quality time with his growing gaggle of little ones.

reports Variety.“After this summer’s record-breaking return to cinemas, we wanted to do something to celebrate moviegoing,” said Cinema Foundation President Jackie Brenneman. “We’re doing it by offering a ‘thank you’ to the moviegoers that made this summer happen and by offering an extra enticement for those who haven’t made it back yet.”The foundation said the event is scheduled for September 3rd and will include nearly 3,000 theaters across the country.

A glum weekend box office overall (one of the worst of the year) wasn’t so awful for specialty, relatively speaking, with Breaking passing $1M on 900 screens and Spanish-language The Good Boss at $27K on 15. Both are a far cry from pre-pandemic numbers but did hit the new normal for limited releases – reaching at least $1 million on 500 to 1,000 screens, and keeping the per theater average above three digits.
