Polish term or phrase: Święto Kina
Hej! Tłumaczę artykuł, w którym jest mowa o Święcie Kina, czyli tej akcji organizowanej w jeden weekend w grudniu, gdzie kina sprzedają tańsze bilety. Mam zamiar zostawić polską nazwę i dodać angielską w nawiasie, bo widzę, że taka konwencja była stosowana w poprzednich tłumaczeniach w TMce. Nie mam jednak dobrego pomysłu na tłumaczenie... chciałabym uniknąć słowa "festival", bo festiwal to jednak nie jest. Na stronie Camerimage znalazłam tłumaczenie "cinema feast", ale nie podoba mi się.
Będę wdzięczna za wszelkie sugestie!

agree  Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D.: Cinema Weekend, then. We can binge longer. Let's not forget the popcorn.

  -> Salted or caramel?

agree  magdadh: Yup, weekend ;) I like to have the ''cinema'' in the translation, to avoid confusion with watching films (or even movies, if we must) at home.

Moviegoer Day(s), Moviegoer's Holiday(s)


Explanation:
Weekend tickets cost 8 Euros while weekday tickets (regardless of show time) cost 7.50 Euros – EXCEPT ON MONDAYS. Mondays, just like at Cine Ideal, is “Moviegoer Day” (“Día del Espectador“) and all tickets cost just 5.60 Euros. Add a big-box of popcorn and you’ve got a movie+popcorn for under 10 Euros! - http://madridman.com/blog-madrid/2012/07/original-version-mo...
