aaaaaaaaaand Action! (or any other movie pun)

The piece containing "ERFRONT" is on the way

Zach reporting:  It's hard to believe that only 6 months ago Penn Cinema Riverfront broke ground in Wilmington, DE.  It's been a whirlwind effort, but the new 14 screen + IMAX is just about ready for its ribbon-cutting and grand opening on 12/13.  Just about all of the auditoriums will be open for business, with only a few loose ends to tie up.  The last pieces of signage were being hoisted into place on Tuesday and cleaning crews have been busy tidying up the building inside and out.  My apologies to you, faithful reader (and our blogmaster, Mike), for not blogging this building's weekly leaps and bounds.  I'm compiling some photos to show the progress and I'll be sure to post them as soon as I can.  Until then, Wilmington receives its first multiplex and Philadelphians now have another IMAX offering.

Today the finishing touches are being put on  the fully renovated and expanded movie theatre in downtown Newark, New Jersey.  One of the many highlights of the project is the "SHAQ Extreme" auditorium.  Shaquille O'Neal is a Newark native and part of the original development team so it seemed fitting that the VIP auditorium with over the top extreme sound and projection  (SHAQ sized) carry his name.

NATO 2011

On a sunny Tuesday in a rented caddy, Bob road tripped down I-95 with Paul and Glenn to exhibit at the National Association of Theater Owners (NATO) Trade Show in Springfield, VA. Tony Soprano and your grandma would have envied this beaut. The day was a good opp for the guys to fraternize with the VIP theater folks. After the trade show adventure, happy hour and a chicken dinner, Bob zipped the exhausted JKR Team home in his silver chariot.
