Moviefone today announced at CinemaCon the addition of several theater circuits to its affiliate content, media and ticketing network, Variety has exclusively learned.
Cmx Cinemas, Santikos Entertainment, Ipic Theaters, National Amusements’ Showcase Cinemas and Cinema Labs will be added to ensure a seamless transition from the Moviefone Media platform to showtimes and ticketing at theaters across the U.S.
“The addition of these terrific, geographically diverse circuits enhances the ability of our multi-media network to refer our viewer, browser, fan or follower to purchase on the exhibitors’ platform,” said Cleveland O’Neal III, CEO of Moviefone Media. “Exhibitors are tremendous marketers for their brand, location, loyalty programs and more. We drive traffic to them and help in the acquisition of customers. We do not do the ticketing, they do. This completely simplifies the process and exemplifies the evolution of our legacy brand to a new win-win partnership with exhibitors.”

The corpse of MoviePass — the cinema subscription service that flamed out last year after running out of cash — could be yours for as low as $250,000.
The court overseeing the sale of MoviePass’s assets has set June 18 as the deadline for interested bidders. The proceeding comes after MoviePass parent Helios and Matheson Analytics filed for Chapter 7 liquidation in January, after sustaining massive financial losses. In its bankruptcy filing, Helios and Matheson listed the estimated value of assets at between $1 million-$10 million.

The investment firm advising the Helios and Matheson’s bankruptcy trustee has set bids for MoviePass at a minimum of $250,000. In March, as part of the Chapter 7 proceeding, the assets of Moviefone were won for...
