“Kino”, from the Greek “kine”(to move), is Internet slang for a motion picture. In particular, it is used to denote works with special artistic merit. The word is also used to describe events and art bearing a cinematic quality either in concept or execution.

Is that what 4channers mean when they call anything else kino? I shouldn't have asked this in a thread about a fake movie theater

Yeah, it basically means “thing that is novel/bold/stylish enough to not look out of place in an art film”.
