In gearing up for summer activities, we are continuing to find available options for when our plans change, or we need a new adventure.
With Regal Cinemas’ Summer Movie Express showing select movies for $1 per person, we can schedule an activity and meet up with friends.
Regal Cinemas’ Summer Movie Express is available for 9 weeks this summer at participating Regal Cinemas, United Artists Theatres, and Edwards Theatres locations.
Showing select movies rated G and PG, attendees pay $1 per person at the box office.
A portion of the Summer Movie Express proceeds is donated to the Will Rogers Institute. This non-profit organization supports research in asthma, tuberculosis, and pulmonary disease.
Beginning as early as May 21, the weekly movies will play at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. At our theatre, both movies run on each day. However, some theatres run one movie on Tuesday and another on Wednesday.
Summer Movie Express runs for 9 weeks with each location choosing the starting and ending dates. Check the Summer Movie Express page of Regal Cinemas’ website for available theatres near you.
The following is a listing of the chosen $1 movies this summer organized by the weekly schedule:
| Week | Title | Rating | Start Time |

With these movies only showing at 10:00 a.m., we had to choose which movie to see. However, we could attend on both Tuesday and Wednesday to see both movies for that week.
Though my older children would sit through a full movie, Miss 4 is still a wiggle worm. She is getting better, and we might venture out to the movie theater again this summer.
If you plan to attend Regal Cinema’s Summer Movie Express, consider becoming a Facebook fan, Twitter follower, newsletter recipient, etc. of your local theater. Loyal customers receive coupons and freebies periodically.
With $1 movies hard to beat, we just need to choose which activities to do while using time wisely. Happy summer planning!
