EVERYBODY!!! CHECK IT: the
new comedy from Oscar winner Jessica Yu - PING PONG PLAYA opens
September 5th in SAN FRANCISCO, SAN JOSE, BERKELEY, LOS ANGELES,
GLENDALE, ALHAMBRA, IRVINE and NEW YORK. On September 12, the film opens in SEATTLE and HOUSTON! Please spread the word and send email blasts!
It's
an exciting time--but here's where we need you. We'll let the movie
speak for itself (if the reactions of people who have seen the movie is
any indication, we firmly believe you won't be disappointed), but we need your help to spread the word about the release of the movie.
Independent
movies don't have the marketing budget to compete against the mammoth
studio movies, but what we do have is intense, strong word-of-mouth (just
check out any of a number of our reviews--from outlets large and small,
from critics, bloggers, and chat room posters alike).
We
are encouraging groups of people to buy out blocks of seats on our
first opening weekend in each of these cities. Bring your friends,
your family and your neighbors. The film is for all ages. In
San Francisco - on Saturday, September 6 - we have some groups of
people buying out seats and in Los Angeles there will be groups coming
to the Mann Chinese 6 and Alhambra. We could use more people buying out seats on all of the other cities and every theater. Our website:
www.pingpongplaya.com
And
if you know of any friends w/ websites or blogs that want to support
the film by putting up our banner ads, please download here:
Please
help us continue to spread the word and come check out the movie
opening weekend (Sept 5--LA/SF/NY; Sept 12--Seattle/Houston).
