| Jun 13, 2014 at 19:19 | comment | added | SeligkeitIstInGott | @Gabe Great info. I love historical details about stuff like this. BTW, for a tangential question: Is there a SE question about ticket discounting sites or opt-in memberships to things that give you discounts and how that works with the theater system? I've always wondered how companies strike deals with the theaters/distributers like that. If not would it be on topic for the Movies & TV section here to ask a new question about that? | |
| Jun 13, 2014 at 19:05 | comment | added | Gabe | To see why United Artists has the same name as a theater chain, learn about the Studio System: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_system. Originally a studio had all of its directors, actors, and such under contract to produce so many films per year, which were shown in their own theaters. If you wanted to see Mickey Rooney, you probably had to go to a Loew's theater. UA was a reaction to that, as a means for independent artists to be able to make movies and get them shown. | |
