Sala Montjuc
Where that? Barcelona, Spain

Nokia Ultra Screen
Where that? Bangkok, Thailand
Why We Want to Go There: Well, does YOUR local cinema offer a free foot massage during the film? Would you even want one from that spotty teenage usher?
Cinematheque Francais
Where that? Paris, France

Uplink X
Where that? Tokyo, Japan

Avoca Beach Picture Cinema
Where that? New South Wales, Australia
Why We Want to Go There: It serves tasty cocktails in what is basically a refurbished surf shack just a couple of hundred feet from the sea. Plus, y'know, it’s a cinema on the beach... what else is there to say?
Colosseum Kino
Where that? Oslo, Norway
Why We Want to Go There: A giant domed roof serves a double purpose of enhancing the sound design within while also looking awesome on the outside.
The former helps to make for an incredible movie-viewing experience in what is the world’s largest THX cinema, while the latter makes the venue stand out in an already stunning Oslo skyline.
Raj Mandir Theatre
Where that? Jaipur, India
Why We Want to Go There: With more than 1200 seats that regularly sell out, the Raj Mandir Theatre is a beautiful venue that acts as a celebration of all things Bollywood.
