Harry Potter Film Festival Coming To This Michigan Theater

If you’re a young Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin in Michigan looking for one last hoorah before heading back to the local Hogwarts, hang on to your broomsticks — every Harry Potter film is returning to theaters nationwide for one week only. You read that right. You can watch all nine films at Cinemark XD theaters nationwide for $25 total. Or, if you can’t make it to all the showings, you can pay $5 per movie.

Cinemark is celebrating “Wizarding World XD Week” from Aug. 31 to Sept. 6. The $25 festival pass includes a free collectible keychain, a specially designed cup that you can refill for $3.50 through Nov. 30 and a commemorative festival badge. You can reserve your seats beginning Aug. 25. Seating is limited though, so passes will be doled out on a first-come, first-serve basis. And, obviously, you can only buy one pass per person.

To see it in Michigan, head to the Cinemark Southland Center in Taylor.

If witches, wizards and Quidditch aren’t really your speed, remember that kids nationwide are invited to watch Bo Burnham’s R-rated movie “Eighth Grade” on Wednesday night. No ratings will be enforced.

The Potter festival also comes as the struggling movie subscription service Movie Pass implements a novel — pun intended — strategy to remain in business: by reducing the number of movies subscribers can watch. Instead of a movie a day, members are now limited to three a month.
