Grand Cinemas and Ace Cinemas are a Western Australian chain of cinema multiplexes. The chain is operated by The Movie Masters cinema group. ==History== The Movie Masters Cinema Group was formed in the 1990s as a co-operative initiative between the locally owned and operated WA cinema companies, Ace and Grand Cinemas. The organisation is based solely in Western Australia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= DAVID AND GOLIATH: THE GRAND THEATRE COMPANY AND THE NATIONAL EXHIBITION CHAINS )〕 Ace Cinemas, a Western Australian owned company, was founded as one of Australia’s first drive-in operators in the 1950s. Grand Cinemas (formerly the Grand Theatre Company) was originally formed as a family business in 1928, with a group of cinemas in the city. During the drive-in era, the company relocated to the suburbs, as people no longer wanted to drive in to the city just to see a movie. Grand Cinemas was responsible for the construction of the Cinema City opposite the Perth Town Hall (later operated by Hoyts before its demolition). In 1994, Grand Cinemas further developed the cinema scene with the launch of their megaplex at Warwick in Western Australia, offering the fist suburban cinema complex in Perth's Northern Suburbs (prior to that patrons had to travel to the Innaloo Greater Union complex.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Grand About Us )〕 The Movie Masters brand was initially formed to allow Ace Cinemas and Grand Cinemas to effectively compete against the multi-national exhibition chains, such as Greater Union and Hoyts.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= History of Grand Cinemas )〕 The group currently operates 10 locations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Movie Masters Cinema Group」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
