ABOUT US

ONE STOP ACCESS TO OVER 100 CINEMA WEBSITES

The Film Cooperative is a network of over 100 independent cinema websites. It offers distributors the opportunity to promote their films in most prominent positions, using sales-driving ads that link directly to booking.

Film and lifestyle orientated brands use the network to cost-effectively reach a highly engaged online film audience.

The ads and trailers on this page are for recent campaigns that we have run or will be running shortly.  In addition to running the advertising we can also act as a single point of access to these cinemas for distributing trailers, social media assets and leveraging added-value coverage for films and brands.

200% Wolf

Everyone’s favourite were-poodle is back in a roar-some cosmic adventure. Freddy Lupin thinks he has everything it takes to lead his werewolf pack, but earning the respect of his packmates proves to be a challenge. If only he were more… wolfish.

200% Wolf only in cinemas 20th September!

JOKER: FOLIE À DEUX

The new film stars Joaquin Phoenix once again in his Oscar-winning dual role as Arthur Fleck/Joker, opposite Oscar winner Lady Gaga (“A Star Is Born”).

“Joker: Folie À Deux” finds Arthur Fleck institutionalised at Arkham awaiting trial for his crimes as Joker.  While struggling with his dual identity, Arthur not only stumbles upon true love, but also finds the music that’s always been inside him.

The Critic

THE CRITIC is a deliciously dark and sharp-witted thriller, written by Patrick Marber and featuring an all-star British cast including Ian McKellen, Gemma Arterton, Mark Strong, Ben Barnes, Alfred Enoch, Romola Garai and Lesley Manville.

In cinemas from 13th September.

DISTRIBUTOR CAMPAIGNS – MEDIA PLUS ADDED VALUE

We fully understand the difficulties in reaching the fragmented independent exhibition sector.

We work closely with Onscreen magazine, the leading film magazine for independent cinema.  Onscreen covers many of the same cinemas so you can get your ads into print as well as online.

SUPPORTING CINEMA WEBSITES

The Film Cooperative was set up over 10 years ago to provide cinema websites with an additional online revenue stream to complement their onscreen and in-foyer ad revenue.  It provides quality brand ads from market leading suppliers and also higher value campaigns from distributors and film or lifestyle orientated brands who are happy to pay a premium for reaching a known cinema-going audience in a high quality environment.

Unlike most ad serving solutions we are not a faceless algorithm. We have humans to help you implement our service or to talk to in the unlikely event that you have a query.  We are very easy to deal with and offer prompt and regular payment.

NEW CINEMA WEBSITES ARE WELCOME

We’re always looking for new cinema exhibitors to join the network – the bigger we are the better we can be!
