Screenvision, the leading innovator in cinema advertising, has forged a deal with Marcus Theatres®, significantly expanding its Network with an addition of 675 screens. This agreement, including newly finalized deals with United Entertainment Corporation and Studio Movie Grill, highlight Screenvision’s 2009 network growth.
