2009 Showest
2009 CTIA | | Get on our distribution list - click here | | Movie Posters for 2008 Releases | Showest is a Movie Theater ("Exhibitors") and Studio conference. The movie industry feels that they are recession proof because consumers can almost always afford the price of a movie ticket to escape their daily worries. They are feeling particularly good because 2007 was a good year, both domestically and internationally.
Hot topics this year include the continued rollout of Digital Cinema and how 3D will act as a catalyst. Theaters want to bring a better experience to consumers to better compete against home theaters and piracy, and 3D is a key element. Major studios will be introducing dozens of 3D titles in the next few years, including Journey 3D, the first live action 3D movie (previewed at Showest, but released Summer 08).
The following photos are from the many posters that are displayed at Showest to advertise movies that will be released in 2008.
Incidentally, DIGDIA is currently working on a Digital Cinema report.
