Help name the new cinema complex! (UPDATE)
UPDATE
We have had a huge response to the callout for a new name. But there’s still time to put in your suggestion – you’ve got until tomorrow (Friday 21st June) to put yours in – either in the comments here or via email to [email protected].
Berrima Develop, the developers of the new cinema complex in Wynnum Central have a dilemma – what should the new complex be called? So they have turned to readers and subscribers of WynnumCentral to give them a hand… by taking part in the naming process.
Here’s how it’ll work…
• We’ll give you a week to put your thinking cap on and come up with a suggested name (ie until Fri 21st June)
• Name suggestions can be made via email (to [email protected]) or via the comments at the bottom of this article or via the Facebook post
• All the suggested names will be listed in an online survey and we’ll ask everyone to vote on their favourites (voting will run until Sunday 30th June)
• The most popular name will be revealed on Sunday 7th July
Just to make things a little more interesting, the developers are offering a few prizes, to be awarded at random to anyone who takes part in the naming process. The following four prizes are on offer…
1st prize
A Wynnum Entertainment Pack (worth $200) to spend at a range of Wynnum Central retailers along with 12 cinema tickets valid for 12 months from the opening date of the new cinema (worth $100)
PLUS
3 prizes of a pack of 12 cinema tickets valid for 12 months from the opening date of the new cinema (worth $100 each)
So… let the name game begin!
The Small Print
• To be entered in the draw, you must suggest a name and provide an email address where we can contact you if you win a prize
• Prizes will be re-drawn if we do not hear back from winners within 10 days of us sending the notification email
• If you are not already on the WynnumCentral ENEWS list, we will add you (you can unsubscribe at any time)
• The developers are free to name the complex any name they choose and are not obliged to use the most popular name or any of the suggested names
• Some name suggestions may be omitted from the final list at the discretion of the organisers
• The organisers of the naming process and the draw are Berrima Develop Pty Ltd and their decisions relating to the process and the draw are final
My first choice would be to keep it simple ..Berrima St Movies or Bay Movies…
Wynnum Central cinemas
My choice would be The Southern Star Cinema
If they sell hot chips, I’d call it, “Bayside Flicks & Chips” or “Bayside Chips & Flicks”
If not… then something simple like “Bayside Cinemas”
It would be fitting to history to call it Imperial Picture Theatre or Flea Pit
Wynnum Cinemas
I think Central Cinemas would work great
Movies by the bay
Love this one!
Hmm…A wynnum cinema 🤔🤔 I think the only possible name would be the WYNNUMA!! #wynnuma 👏👏👏👏👏
Okay no need to continue competition, that’s gotta be the winner!
Bayside Cinemas or Bayside Movies
W.E.C. … Wynnum Entertainment Centre
Short and snappy.. ‘I’ll meet you at WEC!’
My husband is a born and bred Wynnumite and he suggests “Imperial Star” as a memory of the two previous Wynnum theatres which he remembers.
Love it.
“No Talking No Dogs”
The Imperial Star Theatre
I like the sound of this one too. The Imperial Star Theatre!
“Flea Pit 2”
my Idea would be honouring the ancestral land we live on and name it after the traditional tribe owners on Wynnum and call it “Quandamooka bay Theatre”. OR Naming it “ Broadwalk theatre” something that flows.
This is a great idea. Maybe even consult with local elders in naming.
Bayside Cinemas

Wynnum needs a facelift and movie theatres are the answer. The name I think would suit these Theatres is The Old Wynnum Town Theatres

The name should be “Wynnum Sun Screen”

Wynnum is English speak for Pandanus so it could be a fitting name. “Pandanus Pictures”.
