I know first runs vary in length, but about how long does it take a movie to from first-run theaters to dollar theaters?
it depends on how ticket sales are during the first-run.
So I wanna make a poll and I am wondering what people think is the best movie to be released into theaters so far this year. It can be from January to now.
Fast Five

I’ve seen scream 4 already, what are some other good ones? That are worth paying a fortune to go to the theater? I don’t want to see a movie if its people think it wasn’t worth seeing in theaters.

As long as you go when there are not a bunch of teenagers in the theater.
It’s an awesome, creepy movie. I highly recommend it.
Well, I’m a a pretty big movie poster collector. But they are SO damn expensive! Like 12 dollars! So I was just wondering what movie theaters do with posters when the movie is lo longer in theaters?
Do you think I could just ask if I could have it
This also applies to standees (cardboard stand ups) 
Thanks!
Becomes trash. Usually they’ll cut it up so people won’t sell them on ebay to make a profit. You could try befriending the manager or ask to purchase a poster.
What is the name of the movie in the sprint commercial shown in the movie theaters with a guy in white and a guy in black who are brothers? The slogan is movies don’t interrupt you, don’t interrupt them. The voice over has a lady saying something about a tennis match.
Also, the guys are in armor (white/black), and the guy in black turns into black dust and disappears.
the 2010 version of Clash of the Titans, the two characters are Zeus in white (Liam Neeson) and Hades in black (Ralph Fiennes).
For example, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows opened in 4125 theaters. What determines that number? Does each theater decide if they wanna show a movie or do the distributors decide to which and how many theaters they want a movie to be shown in? Obviously it has something to do with popularity, but the highest-grossing movies haven’t necessarily opened in the most number of theaters.
It’s sort of a combination, at least at the theater I work at. We negotiate with the distributers and the other movie theater in town and sort of alternate big name movies. Also, if a distributer wants us to open a movie on two of our screens instead of one and we say no, they can decide to give it to our competition. Theaters can also request smaller movies that don’t get big openings or delcine movies they don’t want. I’m at a locally owned theater though, I’m not sure how it’s decided for chains.
I’ve never acted in theater before and am trying to get more experience in acting by starting with theater , are there any theaters around that’ll except that . Especially for the spring .

What did Greek Theaters look like in classical Greece? How did this change in the Hellenistic period?
The Greek theaters in classical Greece had these main parts;
Orchestra: a flat, semi-circular space, where the performance of the chorus took place
Skené ((from which the word "scene" derives)): a building behind the orchestra which served as dressing room. The front side looked likea Palace or a temple and there they used to put large painted panels in order to change the background of the orchestra.
Koilon: the auditorium; there the spectators sat. It was called koilon because of its shape. Its shape was semi-circular and conical, built around the orchestra.
The whole building was called Theatron which comes from Latin theātrum, which derives from Greek theatron=place for viewing ( theasthai= to look at)
It was dedicated to the god Dionysus, and thus every ancient Greek theater had an altar dedicated to him, named "thymele"; it was positioned in the middle of the Orchestra.
In the early years of drama the orchestra was the acting place of the actors, too.
Gradually, the action moved from the orchestra to the Proscenio (the space in front of the Scene)
So after the 5th century BC the orchestra was for the chorus and the proscenio (pro means ”in front”) for the acting.
Between the scene and the right and left endings of the Koilon, there were two entrances for the spectators, called Parodoi.
During the play, the Parodoi used as entrances of the actors and the chorus.
During the Hellenistic Period drama is in decline, so the older tragedies are played now.
New comedy is in its peak though, with Menander being its most prominent representative.
What’s more, there is a new change to the space where the actors perform: they rise from the ground floor of the proscenio to the first floor, one level higher than the chorus that remains at the orchestra.
Note that the ancient Greeks had developed the acoustics to an extent that reaches or even exceeds contemporary knowledge of the matter. That is why the acoustics of the ancient theatres are so excellent. To be spesific, there are theaters, like Epidauru’s theatre in mainland Greece that have perfect acoustics.
And this is explained by the large development of mathematics in ancient Greece. Lets not forget that In the meantime the Greeks had pushed architecture, constructive skills and understanding of sound and music to their very limits.
I’ve been having a lot of dreams that take place in random movie theaters. The dreams themselves don’t even focus that much on them though, they’re more like backgrounds. What do you think these dreams mean? Is it bad or good?
Movies as a dream symbol are glimpses of real life. So a theater would probably mean that you are ready and willing to look at some aspects of your life on a subconscious level.
