Author Topic: 'In Cinemas Everywhere'. John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 03-17-2000 05:19 AM                     'Now Showing In Cinemas Everywhere'... That's a common tagline in ads here in Australia and, I guess, over in US of A also (seeing as we tend to mimic your ad sells). One fiercely independent independent operator here in Sydney got tired of not being supplied even with arthouse shows as they went to the newer 'independent' (who is actually owned by a major but just uses a different name for the chain) so he started going out and buying his own films and now does quite nicely thank you very much. His tagline in all his ads now read... 'If it's at cinemas everywhere...it's not on here'. I love it.  |  IP: Logged Stefan Scholz Expert Film Handler Posts: 223 From: Schoenberg, Germany Registered: Sep 1999 posted 03-18-2000 07:31 AM                        Great, I like that. When I started out, it was "comming soon at this theatre". Nowadays everything is like you wrote, or from Mar XX at all theatres. My young projectionist always cuts off and removes any crap like this from trailers etc. On advertising we tend to say: "Now comming with picture and sound". Something most chain operation never offer. I like his humour.  |  IP: Logged
