RIP Legend. His villain in "Quick and the Dead" remains one of my all time fav's VictorY Mar 07, 14:28

I've adored his work my whole life. My favorite roles: Harry Caul, Little Bill, and Royal Tenenbaum. What an artist! {nm} goodvibe61 Mar 07, 15:23

Yes 100% agree. Was sad he retired but understood why. Best Lex Luthor ever - I still marvel at his balance of humor and menace. {nm} MAlbi Mar 07, 15:47

This is such a sad state of affairs, but I'm glad it wasn't something more nefarious as some suspected. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 08, 05:40

Sony beat out WB and Netflix for Zach Cregger’s ‘Resident Evil’ Antibody Mar 07, 12:07

BOR has the release date as September 18, 2026... any predictions on the HSX IPO price? :) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 07, 12:15

Wonder how much bigger of a budget they are giving him, since they pointed out this is for their Columbia brand and not Screen Gems. {nm} notfabio Mar 07, 13:11

Though don't have huge expectations since they dated it for the usual Resident Evil franchise Sept release date. {nm} notfabio Mar 07, 13:17

these films are something like 80% international (not looking it up and doing the math so that number is a guess) {nm} Moviesnob Mar 07, 13:23

THR: Adam Aron is trying to re-negotiate theatrical windows back up to 45 days for AMC, studios so far are mostly blowing him off. notfabio Mar 07, 09:40

Allegedly they were the one exhibitor who was open to Netflix on NARN4 so not sure if that's still the case or not. {nm} notfabio Mar 07, 09:41

Good! {nm} Moviesnob Mar 07, 09:44

About the window not getting blown off {nm} Moviesnob Mar 07, 09:44

The Uni and WB deals should be up for re-negotiation soon, the 17 day windows being the most problematic. Even an upping to 30 days =help {nm} notfabio Mar 07, 09:48

Jinx! (20 minutes later) :) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 07, 10:08

They should compromise and go with 30 days. Few movies stay in theaters that long anyway. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 07, 10:07

45 days provides a buffer between theatrical and transactional otherwise it's still too easy to wait {nm} Moviesnob Mar 07, 10:25

I've never understood why the window needs to be so inflexible. Keep the movie in theaters a long as it's still making money {nm} nfred659 Mar 07, 14:07

Moana 2 got 105 days because even leaving a crummy DTV-level sequel in theaters over xmas is just printing money uncle michelle Mar 07, 13:00
