The recent spate of movies has put many new directors in the spotlight. Imtiaz Ali, Anurag Kashyap, Sriram Raghavan, Neeraj Pandey…the list goes on. There are directors who specialize in a particular genre and then there are some for whom genre doesn’t matter, the movie works anyways. Whatever the case, director name-dropping is very much ‘in’ to promote films.
There are many reasons for not catching a particular movie at the talkies. The movie slipped by without a notice, there wasn’t enough time, didn’t like romantic/action flicks before, wasn’t born then and so on. While there may be scores of DVDs available, the experience of watching your favorite movie on the big screen is simply something.
From super-priced colas to supersized popcorn tubs, we’ve had our trysts with snacks at movie theatres. While multiplexes have a rather structured staple, single screen theatres seem more innovative in their snack approach. Along with the traditional popcorn (which has undergone a makeover in the plexes), you can now expect burgers, pizza, assorted beverages, ice-cream, donuts, nachos, and so much more.
It’s showtime again! Ever since the producers and distributors resolved their differences, multiplexes are back in business with new releases, exciting food combos, offers, merchandise and more services to entice you back to the cinema. Take a moment to rate your favorite movie hangout and also tell us why. Interesting cinema stories are also welcome.
