Regal Entertainment Group Presents Bolt in Disney Digital 3D at 140 Locations

Posted on: Tuesday, 28 October 2008, 18:00 CDT

Regal Entertainment Group (NYSE: RGC), a leading motion picture exhibitor owning and operating the largest theatre circuit in the United States, announced today that tickets will go on sale Friday for Walt Disney Pictures' Bolt in Disney Digital 3D. Regal Entertainment Group will offer this digital 3D presentation at 140 locations across the country utilizing the RealD cinema system. The movie opens Friday, November 21.

"As we look forward to an exciting Holiday movie season, we are pleased to offer premium entertainment options such as Bolt in Disney Digital 3D. Regal Entertainment Group is certain that the 3D presentation will be popular with our audiences all across the country," stated Dick Westerling, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Advertising for Regal Entertainment Group.

In Disney's Bolt, every day is filled with adventure, danger and intrigue for super-dog Bolt, at least until the cameras stop rolling. When the star of a hit TV show is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood soundstage to New York City, he begins his biggest adventure yet, a cross-country journey through the real world to get back to his owner and co-star, Penny. Armed only with the delusions that all his amazing feats and powers are real, and the help of two unlikely traveling companions - a jaded, abandoned housecat named Mittens and a TV-obsessed hamster named Rhino - Bolt discovers he doesn't need superpowers to be a hero. Bolt has been rated PG for some mild action and peril.

For the Digital 3D presentation of Bolt, audience members will utilize comfortable, lightweight glasses to view the film's 3D effects. These glasses can be taken home as souvenirs of the movie. Selected locations will begin showing Bolt with a special midnight show Thursday night November 20. To locate Bolt in Disney Digital 3D at a theatre near you and to purchase tickets, simply log onto Regal Entertainment Group's website beginning Friday at: www.REGmovies.com/digital3d
