Trivia / Front Row Joe

Go To

  • Executive Meddling: Why the 1995-era trailer didn't have Joe singing; Cinemark execs thought the audience needed a break. They also asked for the rather garish 90s-era color scheme, to go along with their then-new "Tinseltown" megaplexes, which carried the same colors.
  • Official Fan-Submitted Content: According to a commenter on YouTube, Popcorn Penny didn't originally have a name, and got it from a contest held by Cinemark in the early 90s.
  • The Other Darrin: In "Let's Party, Let's Rock!" the voice of the main theater usher was changed due to the original not being considered "peppy" enough. Amusingly, his new voice would wind up being the voice of Front Row Joe in the subsequent trailers.
  • You Look Familiar: Front Row Joe started having dialogue in his trailers staring with "We're Gonna Party." Once he did, his voice was done by the same person who did the voice of the theater usher in "Let's Party, Let's Rock!"
