"The next episode of " Star Wars" will be premiered in the movietheaters around you" ( correct or incorrect?)

OR


" The movietheater, I live close to, will premiere the next episode of "Star Wars" on August 6th''(correct or incorrect)

Change movie theater/s to two words and remove the commas, and they are correct.

Is it possible to say:

Instead of premiere " The next episode of "Star Wars" is coming soon to the movie theaters around you" Or perhaps it's better to say '" The next episode will soon come the movie theaters around you"

A common expression used in the trailers (the ads that are supposed to get you excited about a movie by showing you clips from it) is "Coming soon to a theater near you."

Coming soon to a theater near you: The next episode of the epic Star Wars saga

So it would sound weird/incorrect, if I said the two sentences given above?

Certainly - either will do.

'Premiere' refers specifically to the first screening of the film.

Than you for your profound remarks!:up:

It may not sound weird -- it just depends on your context.

Note that "a theater near you" is so commonly heard that other combinations (like "the theaters around you") do sound unusual, but not incorrect.

However, since not all theaters show all the same films, "a theater" is more likely factually accurate than "the theaters" since it may not be playing in one of the ones near me.

Could you give me an example of the context in which it will sound OK?

Peter, I'm so excited. I just saw the new episode of the Star Wars movie, and it was great! It was a sneak preview for contest winners -- technically, it hasn't officially opened yet. You're going to love it! But don't worry, you'll get to see it soon. It will be coming soon in the theater around you -- probably all of them, because it's going to be such a blockbuster! I can't wait to hear what you thought of it.

In the States you have premieres faster than we do in Ukraine. Usually a three day delay. Suppose I just came from the USA and I saw it there. So I say to a friend of mine" It was great. But don't worry. You'll get a chance to see it. It will be coming soon in theaters around you." Is it better to say "around you" or "near you"?

 

[Barb_D]

Either one is okay. I'd say "coming to" instead of "coming in" though.

[Barb_D]

I would say "near you" but I don't find the other wrong.
