How our celebrity events work
Our very popular series of celebrity events includes a table in our lobby where you can briefly meet the stars of some of your favorite films for autographs and or posed photographs with them for a fee.
These events are heavily attended and we always suggest that you arrive early. Celebrities are generally scheduled to arrive one hour prior to the first showing of their film unless otherwise stated – please see schedule above. They may or may not be available to the public after a screening so we always suggest that you purchase a souvenir and meet them prior to entering the auditorium. Your early arrival also helps ensure that you can enjoy the widest selection of seats when you watch the film. You must have purchased an admission ticket or a Hollywood Cinema gift card (minimum of $15) to get in the line to meet our special guests.
Depending on the length of the line and scheduling, our guest may entertain questions from the audience and introduce the film from the stage but this is entirely discretionary and varies from event to event. Some of our guests make an extraordinary effort to ensure a great experience, and this may back up the seating for later show times.
In most instances, there is a charge per autograph – that signature can come on an 8×10 photograph provided by Hollywood Cinemas OR something of your own that you bring to the event.
We will have a professional photographer set up to take posed pictures with our guest. Tinseltown photo charges a fee for a glossy, instant print – pricing and sizing will be available closer to the event. This is the only way guests can take photos with our celebrity host. We do not allow pictures of our special guest with your own camera after a certain point in line.
We do take credit cards and there is also an ATM on premise.

Author Joe Hill signs at Anderson’s Bookshop on Friday, May 10, 2013 at 7:00 p.m.
Description
NOS4A2 is a spine-tingling novel of supernatural suspense from master of horror Joe Hill, the New York Times bestselling author of Heart-Shaped Box and Horns.
Victoria McQueen has a secret gift for finding things: a misplaced bracelet, a missing photograph, answers to unanswerable questions. On her Raleigh Tuff Burner bike, she makes her way to a rickety covered bridge that, within moments, takes her wherever she needs to go, whether it’s across Massachusetts or across the country.
Charles Talent Manx has a way with children. He likes to take them for rides in his 1938 Rolls-Royce Wraith with the NOS4A2 vanity plate. With his old car, he can slip right out of the everyday world, and onto the hidden roads that transport them to an astonishing – and terrifying – playground of amusements he calls “Christmasland.”
Then, one day, Vic goes looking for trouble—and finds Manx. That was a lifetime ago. Now Vic, the only kid to ever escape Manx’s unmitigated evil, is all grown up and desperate to forget. But Charlie Manx never stopped thinking about Victoria McQueen. He’s on the road again and he’s picked up a new passenger: Vic’s own son.
About the Author
Joe Hill is the New York Times bestselling author of the novels Horns and Heart-Shaped Box and the prizewinning story collection 20th Century Ghosts. He is also the Eisner award–winning writer of an ongoing comic book series, Locke & Key. His new novel, NOS4A2, will be published in May 2013. You can follow Joe on Twitter, where he goes by the inspired handle of @joe_hill.
