Theaters celebrate as Memorial Day movie records are broken with top performances from Lilo & Stitch and summer blockbusters. The box office momentum of “Lilo & Stitch” and other movies this Memorial Day weekend has set sales records. For example, Regal Cinemas set Memorial Day records.
Cinemark Holdings, Inc., broke waves of all-time moviegoing records over the long Memorial Day holiday weekend across box office and concessions, driven by robust consumer enthusiasm around films such as “Lilo & Stitch,” “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning,” “Final Destination Bloodlines,” “The Last Rodeo,” “Sinners,” “Thunderbolts*” and more. Cinemark maximized box office opportunities with the compelling slate and delivered domestic records in multiple categories, including:
