@WillSloanEsq Meant to check this out a few months ago so glad to see it again. It's a pleasure to get the background of a name one hears from entertainment books but dont know why they are important. A fun listen!

Cinema A to Z: Growing Pains premieres at 9pm ET. Watch now on demand.

[Justin Poirier @jpoir]

@camfess Cinema A to Z is so well done. So glad to hear last week that this was coming back. Treat for movie fans and the Canadian references are bonuses. I watch with a notepad to highlight films I've never heard of.

[Justin Poirier @jpoir]

@JustSayRad Completely agree. What is your guess for ad-free pricing? $35?

[Justin Poirier @jpoir]

@toddbertshannon How is this possible? Pepsi is everywhere. American/Canadian cultural difference perhaps.

[Justin Poirier @jpoir]

@hockeyesque They are fine. You’ll have fun. Sightlines mostly okay, far side can be blocked out.

As someone who constantly reads about (American) film distribution, this was an eye opening look at Cineplex and the Canadian market.

[Barry Hertz @HertzBarry]

Come to hear me talk about Cineplex's market dominance, stay to listen to me work through my childhood trauma of watching Bambi as my first-ever big-screen movie.
