Gateway Cineplex gives Cars 3 early viewers a VIP treat
Araneta Center’s Gateway ATMOS Cinema 5 recently held a special advanced screening of Cars 3, more than a week before its regular theater run scheduled this month. Eat, Bulaga dabarkad Ruby Rodriguez, who attended the VIP event with her lovely kids, was among the first local moviegoers to catch the third installment of the popular Disney animation. Niño Muhlach’s son, Alonzo, was also at the event with his family.
The VIP red carpet screening is just one of the many treats Gateway Cineplex has been giving its loyal customers. Last month, it held a kiddie art workshop and meet-and-greet with Gru and Stuart from Despicable Me 3.
Spider-man also paid the cinema a visit in June, said hi to fans in a short event at the Gateway Activity Area and even took a jeepney ride outside the Smart Araneta Coliseum. Movie fans are advised to keep an eye on the next exciting Gateway Cinema activities.
Gateway Cineplex 10 treated Cars fans to a red carpet experience on July 17 with an exhibit of a collectors’ item die cast Lightning McQueen car from Mattel; a Cars 3 play table for kids to race some miniatures; a digital photo booth for the whole family; and loads of Disney premium items raffled off every 30 minutes.
Cars 3 is a fun family movie with a lot of young fans all over the world. Lightning McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson), now a veteran racer, gets booted out of the racing scene because of next-generation cars like Jackson Storm (Armie Ham- mer). He seeks out Cruz Ramirez (Cristela Alonzo) to help him get back in the game and prove that he is still the best race car in the tracks.
“It was a very heart-warming story,” Ruby said after seeing the movie. “We always play this (game) in Bulaga — (name) unexpected movies that will make you tear up. I will say this now; Cars 3 is one of them. It made me cry. Why? You have to watch it!”
Alonzo, meanwhile, had his favorite scene as well, and wasted no time telling everyone, “Everybody please watch Cars
3 in Gateway! I enjoyed it... so have fun.” The child star also added, “It’s the best movie ever!”
Gateway Cineplex is located at the fourth level of Gateway Mall in Araneta Center, Quezon City. For more information, you may call 911-555, visit http://
