Don't Forget About Regal Cinema's Summer Movie Express!

noreply@blogger.com (Hart Traylor) — Tue, 12 Jul 2011 15:30:00 +0000

This summer, several of the Regal Cinema Movie Theaters here in Columbia and Lexington will be showing family friendly movies for ONLY $1!!! The Summer Movie Express will be kicking off next Tuesday, June 7, and will last for 9 weeks. Each week two movies will be shown on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings. Both movies start 10 a.m. Tickets and seating are first-come, first-served and are limited to theater capacity. The Summer Movie Express is safe, lots of fun and a great way for kids to spend a weekday morning in the summer. Tickets are exclusively available at the theaters’ box office on the day of the show.

You can visit Regal's website for more information, as well as search for participating Regal theaters in other cities and states.

(Please Note: Summer Movie Express will also take place on Thursdays at the Columbia and Lexington theaters!!!)

(A portion of proceeds from the Summer Movie Express will be donated to the Will Rogers Institute. Will Rogers uses the money to fund the institute’s mission in the areas of medical research and health education. The Regal Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) charity established by Regal Entertainment Group, also provides monetary grants to local Boys and Girls Clubs to bring club members to the Summer Movie Express.)

The following is a list of the 4 Regal theaters taking part in the Summer Movie Express, and each theater's schedule:

(Please Note: The theaters on Forest Drive, Bower Parkway and North Lake Drive have the same schedule. However the theater on Town Center Place has a different schedule.)

Remember, the movies begin at 10am each morning.

noreply@blogger.com (Hart Traylor) — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 19:12:00 +0000

Tonight we will be showing...

"Ice Age 2: The Meltdown"

Plot Summary

Manny the woolly mammoth, Sid the sloth, Diego the saber-toothed tiger, and the hapless prehistoric squirrel/rat known as Scrat are still together and enjoying the perks of their now melting world. Manny may be ready to start a family, but nobody has seen another mammoth for a long time; Manny thinks he may be the last one. That is, until he miraculously finds Ellie, the only female mammoth left in the world. Their only problems: They can't stand each other--and Ellie somehow thinks she's a possum! Ellie comes with some excess baggage in the form of her two possum "brothers"-- Crash and Eddie, a couple of daredevil pranksters and cocky, loud-mouthed troublemakers. Manny, Sid and Diego quickly learn that the warming climate has one major drawback: A huge glacial dam holding off oceans of water is about to break, threatening the entire valley. The only chance of survival lies at the other end of the valley. So our three heroes, along with Ellie, Crash and Eddie, form the most unlikely family--in any "Age"-- as they embark on a mission across an ever-changing, increasingly dangerous landscape towards their salvation.
