4 New Ways Movie Theaters Are Filling Seats and Upselling Patrons

 

The next time you go to a movie theater, you may be coaxed into spending a little extra money—perhaps for a beer, a toy your kid is begging for, or the right to watch the film you just saw over and over.

Even with the blizzard of ticket sales for Frozen starting the year, 2014 has been less than stellar at the box office, with a summer of few blockbusters and overall sales that are down 4% compared to last year. In previous years, theaters and movie studios have resorted to raising admission prices (often using IMAX or 3D screenings as a justification) as a way to offset declining ticket sales.

Is 'Mockingjay - Part 1' really a movie?

This is not a rant about anything. I need to clarify that up front, because 2014 has been a horrible year for ranting. But it’s also been great year for very good things that straddle the line between how we used to define television and how we used to define movies.

Is True Detective a miniseries or an 8-hour movie? Should The Knick rank in Steven Soderbergh’s filmography? Fargo and Hannibal transformed well-trod source material into a new kind of remake—half greatest hits compilation, half concept album. Not for nothing, 2014 was also the year that Shonda Rhimes claimed Thursday for old-fashioned weekly TV, with three flavors of throwback procedural (doctor show, politics show, lawyer show) infused with soap operatics.

Is Kiwi comedy really that sexist?

Michele A'Court's been hounded about what it's like to be a funny woman once too often. She turns down an interview, pointing to her final thoughts on the subject in The Guardian, where she wrote earlier this year: "It forces me to think of myself as 'a woman who does comedy' rather than as a 'comedian'."

Despite the question haunting her decade-long career of wisecracking, it's 2014, and 24-year-old Louise Beuvink still gets introduced as "the one with tits and a vagina".

Rose Matafeo, 22, is horrified that at her gig last week in Hamilton, a man congratulated all the male comedians by their names, then merely said to her: "Well done Mrs Skirt" ("I wasn't even wearing a skirt!").

The Giver: conservative parable or a Hollywood film like any other?

In June 1992, the screenwriter Jonathan R Reynolds published a letter in the New York Times complaining of Hollywood’s liberal bias. “I defy you to name a movie, primetime network television series, or made-for-television movie that espouses any sort of intelligent conservative position,” it read. He exhorted the paper to send a journalist to meet with studio executives to pitch a film which held conservative values at its core. He ended the letter, ominously, saying that “historically, the pendulum will swing back sooner or later.”

If you’ve been reading conservative blogs this week, you would be excused for thinking that this moment had come. In The Giver, released on Friday, the rightwing commentariat has found a Hollywood film which they can wholeheartedly embrace.

Edinburgh comedy awards 2014 shortlist: why Liam Williams should win

I loved Williams’s subterranean hour of nihilistic Gen-Y standup – and I’d have welcomed an appearance on the shortlist for his group Sheeps

So the Foster’s Edinburgh comedy award shortlist is out – and it contains few surprises. James Acaster is there for the third year running for his show Recognise – and repeat nominees (Russell Kane, Al Murray) have often come good in the end. Wig-wearing oddball John Kearns gets a nod – a rare example of a best newcomer following up immediately with a best show nomination. And on this year’s newcomer’s list, south Londoner Dane Baptiste becomes one of very few (the first?) black British comedians to appear on either list.

Robin Williams: One of the Great Comedy Recording Artists

 

In the days since Robin Williams’ passing, there has been a lot said about his incredible acting career, with many headlines beginning with the words “Oscar winner…”. This is of course for good reason, as Williams was easily one of the most versatile actors of our time, bouncing effortlessly from dramatic to comedic roles, succeeding in anything he took on. He is as beloved for his Academy Award-winning performance in Good Will Hunting (to say nothing of his other nominations) as for his turn as the Genie in Aladdin, if not more so.
