"This year's line-up is made up of timeless films that are sure to evoke the same excitement the audience felt the first time they saw them in theatres," said Brad LaDouceur, Vice President of Event Cinema, Cineplex. "The 'Flashback Film Fest' is a part of our ever- growing Event Cinema programming that offers guests a chance to get up close and personal with acclaimed stage productions, iconic works of art, highly-anticipated sporting and concert events by heading to their local Cineplex theatre."

"We are living at a time when there is an amazing appetite for 80s and 90s pop culture and we had that in mind when selecting the films for this year's 'Flashback Film Fest'," said author, film critic and host of Pop Life, Richard Crouse. "Many of today's successful films and TV shows are either influenced by or pay homage to films included in the festival's line-up. I'm really looking forward to celebrating the 20th anniversary of The Big Lebowski because if there's ever an opportunity to see 'The Dude' back on the big screen, fans should abide."
