The screening will take place at the Olathe Studio 30, and is also a sneak preview of that theater’s new theater/dining/drinking format called Fork & Screen.

The screening is set for Wed. Oct. 22 at the Olathe Studio 30 (119th & Strang Line) at 7:30pm and the first 50 people to sign up get free tickets! After you sign up, you will receive an email (in a day or two) with instructions on how to print off two ‘admit-one’ passes online.

Edward Norton, Colin Farrell, Jon Voight and Noah Emmerich star in “Pride and Glory,” a gritty and emotional portrait of a multi-generational police family who find themselves on opposite sides of an incendiary corruption scandal in the New York City Police Department. Four New York City cops are dead, killed in an ambush that has the entire police department on alert and on edge. With a cop killer on the loose and so much riding on the case, Chief of Manhattan Detectives Francis Tierney, Sr. (Jon Voight) asks his son, Detective Ray Tierney (Edward Norton), to lead the investigation. Reluctantly Ray takes over the case knowing the cops who were lost had served under his brother, Francis Tierney, Jr. (Noah Emmerich), and alongside his brother-in-law, Jimmy Egan (Colin Farrell). On the surface, it looked like a routine drug bust gone terribly, tragically wrong. But as Ray delves deeper into the case, he realizes someone had to have tipped off the drug dealers that the cops were coming. Someone on the inside. Worse, the evidence starts to point in an unthinkable direction: to his own brother and brother-in-law. As the questions mount, the case forces the family to choose between their loyalties to one another and their loyalties to the department.

Please bring the pass to the screening, and remember to get there early. These screenings are overbooked to ensure a full house, and this one will be big, no doubt. Good luck!

If you live in the Kansas City area, here’s your chance to hit another FREE ADVANCE SCREENING courtesy of your pals at Scene-Stealers. Check out the trailer for the new horror flick “The Ruins” below.

The screening will take place on Thursday, April 3rd at 10pm.

This very well could be your standard run-of-the-mill horror teen outing, but a couple of things intrigue me.

1. It’s based on the best-seller by Scott Smith, the novelist who wrote “A Simple Plan.” That movie was amazing, and, although I haven’t read the book, Sam Raimi’s film seemed to have a level of character development that many horror movies don’t have. Smith also wrote the screenplay for this, so it could be good…

2. Produced by Ben Stiller? Huh?

Here’s the synopsis:

Based on the terrifying best-seller by Scott Smith, “The Ruins” follows a group of friends who become entangled in a brutal struggle for survival after visiting a remote archaeological dig in the Mexican jungle – where they discover something deadly living among the ruins. “The Ruins” stars Jonathan Tucker (“The Black Donnellys”), Jena Malone (“Pride and Prejudice”), Shawn Ashmore (“X-Men: The Last Stand”), Laura Ramsey (“She’s the Man”) and Joe Anderson (“Across the Universe”). The film is directed by Carter Smith from a screenplay by Scott B. Smith.

Your favorite movie site (that’s us!) is giving away free passes to see this event before the movie opens in theaters. The free screening will be on Thursday, April 3. and will be on the at the Olathe Studio 30 (119th & I-35) at 10pm. The screening is SOLD OUT- stay tuned for more giveaways! Just fill out the stuff below, and get a pass for two in the mail. It’s just that simple! Don’t forget to get there early, as some screenings are overbooked!

If you live in the Kansas City area, here’s your chance to hit another FREE ADVANCE SCREENING courtesy of your pals at Scene-Stealers. Check out the trailer for the Martin Scorsese-directed IMAX film “Shine A Light,” starring the Rolling Stones, below:

You may remember that Scorsese is the man behind what is widely regarded as the best concert film of all time, 1978’s “The Last Waltz,” starring The Band, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, and Van Morrison. This time, the master set his sights on the Stones during a rare 2-day small-venue stop on a tour filled almost exclusively with stadium gigs. The movie was filmed at the more intimate setting of the Beacon Theater in the Fall of 2006, and also features rarely seen archival footage and current behind-the-scenes footage and interviews shot using additional Hi Def, DV Cam, 16mm, and 8mm cameras. Even though the Maysles brothers’ “Gimme Shelter” from 1970 is probably the definitive Stones movie, I’m more than a little curious to see what Scorsese and a crack team of cinematographers such as Robert Elswit (who just won an Oscar for “There Will Be Blood”),  Emmanuel Lubezki (”Children of Men”), and Ellen Kuras (”Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”) have come up with in the loud, large IMAX format.

Your favorite rock ‘n roll movie site (that’s us!) is giving away free passes to see this event before the movie opens intheaters. The free screening will be on Tuesday, April 1 (Yes, I know what day it is, but we promise this is no joke. You won’t get there and find “Hannah Montana.” You’ll just have to trust us.) and will be on the IMAX screen at AMC Olathe Studio 30 (119th & I-35) at 8:30 pm. Just fill out the stuff below, and get a pass for two in the mail. It’s just that simple! Don’t forget to get there early, as some screenings are overbooked!
