On Saturday, movie tickets will be just $3 in the vast majority of American theaters as part of a newly launched "National Cinema Day" to lure moviegoers during a quiet spell at the box office.For one day, movie tickets will be just $3 in the vast majority of American theaters as part of a newly launched "National Cinema Day" to lure moviegoers during a quiet spell at the box office.
Labor Day weekend is traditionally one of the slowest weekends in theaters. This year, the August lull has been especially acute for exhibitors. Cineworld, which owns Regal Cinemas, cited the scant supply of major new releases in its recent plans to fill for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. "After this summer's record-breaking return to cinemas, we wanted to do something to celebrate moviegoing," said Jackie Brenneman, Cinema Foundation president, in a statement. "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."

NEWS_MAKER I would be much more interested in this if this wasn’t the 1st Saturday of CollegeFootball
I prefer to watch from home, on my sofa, in my comfy clothes, eating my snacks, and being able to pause for a bathroom break. No noisy strangers or sticky surroundings.
Why would I want to go to a freezing cold hall and sit packed with a hundred strangers scarfing noisy popcorn and talking over the movie?

Noticed our small town theater is doing it too and it's a private not a big national company.
