Empire Sodeco<\/a>‘s new Premium Cinema is literally a gigantic slumber party. (I totally cracked jokes with the row behind me, that’s,<\/i> how comfortable I was).<\/p>\n Each seat is a recliner\/bed, and comes with a matching gold pillow and blanket, a side table, a lamp, and a friggin’ butler. At only $20 a pop, the “premium” experience is an affordable option for anyone above 18 who wants the extra luxury.<\/p>\n
So what makes this different than other VIP cinema experiences? “We distinguish ourselves from ABC and City Mall because here you’re entering a venue where it’s all premium service,” explained Laura Khoury, Cinema City’s Marketing Manager, “There’s not just one premium theater, the entire area is premium.” <\/p>\n
And if you really want the max level of privacy, feel free to rent out an entire theater for $500 bucks for the perfect movie screening. Hassle free, child-free (because how many movies are interrupted by crying?), and totally comfortable, the only thing you need to worry about at Empire Sodeco is not falling asleep. <\/p>\n
And I’ve already failed at that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
