History
Hollywood.com was launched in the 1990s and was bought and operated by Times Mirror Company in 1996.[1] Times Mirror used the site as the entertainment section of its Los Angeles Times website and newspaper.[2]
An affiliate of Rubenstein and Silvers purchased the website in May 1999. In partnership with the National Association of Theatre Owners and most movie theater chains, Hollywood.com became the first website to display online listings for movie showtimes nationally.[3]
On August 28, 2009, Hollywood Media Corp. sold Hollywood.com and Hollywood.com Television to R&S Investments, LLC, owned by Mitchell Rubenstein and Laurie S. Silvers.
