Today Is The Second Annual National Cinema Day

national cinema day

Today is the second annual National Cinema Day and that means that in participating theaters, you can see every movie that they are currently showing for $4. Yes I wrote four dollars and how awesome is that when you consider the usual median price is upwards of $15 depending on where you see your films.

Last year I watched “Bullet Train” for my cinema day offering and while I debated trying to catch something else that day I was just a little beat and decided to head home instead. My plan is to hit one of the earlier matinees to avoid an overwhelming crowd. This year the offerings are pretty interesting and feature the blockbusters like “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” along with the fun-filled action films like “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem”, “Blue Beetle” and “Meg 2”. Each theater offers up some unique spin in some neighborhoods but these are currently the staple releases playing just about everywhere. At the time of this posting I am on the fence about seeing “Barbie” or “Meg 2”. “Oppenheimer” is a long film so I might wait for streaming on that one and I just saw “Blue Beetle” and can say that it deserves a better reception than its been getting. While I do love the Turtles I will also wait for streaming when it comes to that one.

What will you be seeing for the second ever National Cinema Day? Chime in down below and enjoy yourself.

Today: The Toy Insider’s “Sweet Suite” 2023 @ Chelsea Piers

Hey there my Legions, so I am taking a moment out of the always hectic publishing regimen to let you know that the Creative High Command of Ken Pierce Media will be hitting the annual Toy Insider “Sweet Suite” event today. It’s going to be happening over at the Chelsea Piers where its been done for the last few years and I am excited to be taking part in what I believe to be my eighth such event. The event is a whole lot of fun but also a whole lot of work and my rationale for sharing the announcement here on KPM as opposed to one of the other outlets is based on the cross-coverage that will be done for this one.
