Pizza Delivery Giant Domino’s Strikes VOD Deal With Lionsgate U.K.
Lionsgate U.K. has made a new video-on-demand deal with Domino’s, the pizza delivery company. This deal means Domino’s pizza becomes the first pizza delivery company to bring movies and pizza into British homes.
Domino’s said customers ordering pizza from its website will also be able to watch Lionsgate titles streamed direct through a PC/MAC, mobile and tablet on a rental basis.
Customers will order, receive a code, and be able to stream recent titles such as The Hunger Games and What to Expect When You’re Expecting, and library fare such as Scream and Dirty Dancing while eating the pizza of their choice.
The Domino’s Pizza Box Office service rivals streaming rental services such as iTunes and Blinkbox, the VOD service owned by supermarket giant Tesco.
Domino’s sales and marketing director Simon Wallis said: “We pride ourselves on offering a vast choice when it comes to pizza and the same is true of Domino’s Pizza Box Office — whether you’re into action, horror or romcoms, there’s something for every pizza-eating occasion.”
Lionsgate UK COO Guy Avshalom said: “We are delighted to be working with Domino’s on this innovative new service and look forward to bringing our new releases and cult classics to pizza eaters in their homes across the country.”
That is quite awesome. I wonder if they will be doing that in America sometime soon?

That’s pretty boss!

They really need to bring that over to America soon. Very soon! I would be great to get Domino’s awesome pizza and get to watch my favorite movie of all time- The Hunger Games, obviously
I’m sure they will do this in the U.S., once the legal ducks are all in a row. However, the price of that Pizza just went up…exponentially.
finally something in the UK, not the US!
Hmmm. I can think of 1000 things U.K. has that U.S. doesn’t. #1, we have no Queen, #2 nor King, or 3) Princes of royal descent. 4) We have no Princess. 5) We have no one with lineage titles such a Lord.
Sounds like you have ‘grass is greener’ syndrome. Better to count up all the good things.
so basically 1) we have an aristocracy… and thats it lol xD what a weird list
‘k Let’s talk music. UK has had some of the most original, longest lasting names in the music industry: 1) Beatles, 2) WHO, 3) Rolling Stones and more recently, U2, Adele, One Direction, the list is too long. Then there are movie icons: 1) Bond, James, 2) Harry Potter — want to talk about incredibly original.
If you consider the size of the US is approximately 39 times larger than the UK, then yes, there is more quantity. But is there more quality?
U.K. ~95,000 Sq Miles (244,800km2)
U.S. ~3,794,000 Sq Miles (9,827,000km2)
