Danbarry Cinemas Management, Cincinnati

Despite what the big studios would have you believe, a blockbuster doesn't become any less thrilling, dramatic, or delightfully terrifying as its release date passes. That's the philosophy behind Danbarry Dollar Saver Cinemas, which rewards moviegoers willing to wait a few weeks with cheaper ticket prices and plenty of elbow room. And don't think you'll be forgoing quality by waiting, either. Second-run movies don't mean second-rate presentation: Dollar Saver theaters are all equipped digital projection, and some even boast 3D showings.
