Theaters like Cinemark, RegalAMC Theaters, Alamo Drafthouse, Harkins Theaters, NCG Cinema, Celebration Cinema and Marcus Theaters are participating offering $3 or $4 tickets for any movie, in any format, all day long!

There are a ton of great movies to choose from including the new Blue Beetle from DC Comics, Strays with Jamie Fox & Will Ferrell, Barbie, Oppenheimer, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Grand Turismo!

We also noticed a few theaters are showing older movies like Jurassic Park (30th Anniversary) and American Graffiti (50th Anniversary)! Plus, The Little Mermaid, Spider-Man Across the Spiderverse, Super Mario Brothers, Haunted Mansion, and Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny are still playing in select locations!
