BTW, does anyon know if this is getting any sort of release after the 4 nights of Fathom Events? The Weekend Warrior Sep 08, 08:30

Glass Onion teaser trailer only says Coming Soon (also a way better trailer than usual for Netflix?) notfabio Sep 08, 06:23

Maybe Lionsgate cut it... I'll be happy when I see this in theaters. Otherwise, I'll keep crying. {nm} The Weekend Warrior Sep 08, 06:29

Its more likely Rian has approval over marketing materials {nm} Moviesnob Sep 08, 08:38

Poster also just uses the same Coming Soon messaging notfabio Sep 08, 06:29

Glass Onion: A "try to tear the heart out of theatrical" mystery. A Net Trix specialty. {nm} goodvibe61 Sep 08, 08:50

That's the Netflix date, but theatrical was TBD which is probably still being hammered out will be announced after it screens at TIFF. {nm} notfabio Sep 08, 09:07

Okay, though I would have thought being a Netflix film, they'd advertise the Netflix date. {nm} Jay_Beezy Sep 08, 12:27

Harry Styles maybe or maybe not jokingly told his audience tonight at MSG he went to Venice to spit on Chris Pine (he does laugh afterwards) notfabio Sep 07, 19:28

I guess we'll know how much of a joke it was if they do any press together after this besides Pine not doing the IMAX Live event with him. notfabio Sep 07, 19:34

Actually, Harry Styles has a couple more MSG shows and then he has a few days off to go to TIFF {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 19:48

Styles: Another example showing how much "talent" someone has to have in order to be at least a mediocre film actor. goodvibe61 Sep 08, 00:14

We should leave CPRAT out of this. {nm} The Weekend Warrior Sep 08, 05:08

Variety: Luke Evans says the Beauty & The Beast prequel Disney+ project is still alive, just on hold to "get it right." notfabio Sep 07, 18:43

It's basically at about 80%, so unless he has some top secret intel like when he suddenly stepped down as COVID ramped up.... notfabio Sep 07, 18:59

You will not be shocked but Rich Greenfield was the one that asked the pro streaming anti linear and theatrical question {nm} notfabio Sep 07, 20:53

80% is unsustainable tho {nm} Moviesnob Sep 08, 00:10

and box office is more like just under 70% {nm} Moviesnob Sep 08, 00:19
