Operating theater

Warner Brothers Presents was a benefit to both the movie industry and the television industry. The invention and rise of television of course occurred after the Paramount decision was made, causing the biggest studios in Hollywood to lose their theaters and monopoly on the industry, Because of the advent of television coinciding with Hollywood’s attempt to increase movie attendance,…

I am happy to announce that the Houston Astros have developed three separate ticket plans for the upcoming season. We must consider several things when determining our pricing structure. As an organization, we need to be cognizant that there are many different kinds of fans, therefore, the design of the ticket structure must reach out to these varied types of customers. Some fans will come for day games while others will only attend weekend games. Additional supporters may only attend games once…

“Why would anyone want to make avant-garde/experimental films in a time of virulent anti-intellectualism, widespread political repression and persecution, misguided social and cultural priorities, an increasingly ugly and vulgar popular culture, and, perhaps most questionable of all, an intense apathy to all things beautiful and sublime” (Varela 3)? In the early 1960’s, a group of artists and filmmakers primarily set in New York City began create films that would later define the decade as a…

My director is Spike Lee. I choose Spike Lee because he is a good and well known movie director. His films always have action in them and keep you interested the whole movie. The most recent movies I watched by Spike Lee are “He Got Game” and “Crooklyn.” The movie Crooklyn came out in 1994. It was a good movie about the ups and downs that families have to go through sometimes but at the end the family overcomes the problems. Another Spike Lee movie I really liked was “He Got Game” because its…

threatened they would boycott studios who sold features to television or studios who moved to telefilm. They were forced to take the threats seriously because the exhibitioner’s theaters still consisted as their largest market. That issue would later be resolved due to the antitrust consent decrees that take away the movie theaters that major studios owned. Though because of the promise of wide screen and color television, as well as the increasing popularity as television as a medium: the…

A movie theater in the eyes of many is a great place to spend a night with family, or with a special one. On the other hand, many other people believe that the movie theaters are actually disgusting, chaotic, and irrelevant. These people believe that staying in the comfort of their own home to watch a movie is much better than to travel all the way to a movie theater. I am one of these people who think that watching a movie in my own living room is better, than going all the way to a movie…

dim in the theater and moviegoers are excited to see the premier of a highly anticipated film, when suddenly a gunman walks into the theater, and opens fire on the crowd. This may seem like a scene from a horror movie, but on the night of July 20th, 2012 this scene became all too real. At the Century 16 movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, James Holmes killed 12 people and injured 70 more. This horrifying incident changed the way people go to the movies. Security was increased at theaters across…

As a marketing consultant, I believe Nathan Polanski and Sean Stronghold have a strong potential business opportunity ahead of them in opening a second-run movie theatre in Medicine Hat, Alberta. They have only one other competitor in the second-run movie theatres; with both Nathan and Sean intend on screening ten different films per night, giving consumers many different options to choose from instead of their competitor the Downtown Theatre which only showcases one film per night. All the…

And why is that? It is because of the normalization of companionship, especially in public places such as movie theaters. While observing the people in the lobby of the movie theater, I noticed that the place was full of groups of people. In different areas of the theater, it was the same, with the bare minimum being two people per group. One such group was made up exclusively of teenage boys, six of them, and they went everywhere together…
