A MEGA<br />

ANNIVERSARY<br />

20 YEARS LATER,<br />

MEGAPLEX<br />

THEATRES STILL<br />

GIVES BACK<br />

by Rebecca Pahle<br />

“Congrats, Megaplex, on the milestone anniversary!<br />

Megaplex has been a dedicated partner to Atom<br />

and has believed in us from the start. Megaplex was<br />

among the first exhibitors to leverage our platform<br />

to drive more digital ticket sales and turned to us to<br />

launch their first-ever movie subscription service,<br />

MegaPass. From ops to marketing to technology,<br />

their team is easy to work with and the best<br />

in the business. We’re a huge fan of<br />

Megaplex and their forward-thinking<br />

moviegoing experiences.”<br />

—Matthew Bakal,<br />

Co-Founder and Chairman,<br />

Atom Tickets<br />

MEGAPLEX THEATRES’ GENEVA LOCATION IN VINEYARD, UTAH,<br />

BOASTS D-BOX, IMAX, AND DOLBY ATMOS<br />

“I had the privilege<br />

of working with Megaplex<br />

during the theatrical run of my first<br />

feature film, The Other Side of Heaven, clear<br />

back in 2000. They were a young chain then with<br />

only a few houses, and the movie was my directorial<br />

debut. They locked arms with me and my distributor<br />

as if we were true partners and old friends. The movie<br />

thrived in some of their theaters for months. [Its <strong>2019</strong><br />

sequel] The Other Side of Heaven 2 thrived in Megaplex<br />

locations for almost 14 weeks. Their generosity and<br />

professionalism went unmatched anywhere in the<br />

U.S. This time, when they locked arms with<br />

me, it was really true that they were<br />

my old friends.” —Mitch Davis,<br />

Filmmaker<br />
