Wow! What a night for CineMoms. Along with our partner Bean Head Toys, 200 of us were treated to a free showing of TOY STORY 3 at the brand new Studio Movie Grill (2880 Holcomb Bridge Road). Studio Movie Grill combines tempting made-to-order food from an extensive menu featuring premium spirits, margaritas, wine and beer with first run movies, 100 percent digital projection enhanced by Dolby Surround Sound and Dolby 3D. Studio Movie Grill delivers its unique experience with ticket prices competitive with traditional theaters. Offering the convenience of online ticketing (www.studiomoviegrill.com), as well as reserved seating, patrons can purchase tickets and reserve seats ahead of time to avoid lines at the box office.
The food was outstanding and the moms all agreed that the prices were very affordable. Once seated, patrons just ring a bell located at their table to summon their waiter/waitress. The menu is extensive and you can still purchase regular movie concession items and have it brought to you. Very easy for moms! When you walk in the theatre you immediately notice the chic look and modern décor in the lobby. There is a bar for patrons to hang out at while they wait to be seated for their movie. The picture quality is tremendous and we loved the 3D! Everyone had such a good time and many commented that they couldn’t wait to come back. Visit www.studiomoviegrill.com for more info about the theatre.

CineMoms had a blast at the Twilight Night Lunar Bash on Saturday, June 26 at Atlantic Station. There was every kind of Twilight fan you can imagine including teens, tweens, families, 20 & 30- somethings and many, many more. Fans arrived hours in advance to get their free gift bag and stake out (ha, ha) their space to watch New Moon on the big screen at Atlantic Station’s Central Park. Surrounding Central Park was a Twilight festival which included free tattoos, mind readers, psychics, mini vampire makeovers and facepainting at the CineMoms booth.
