What did you do this time? :) {nm} May 20, 19:00
I posted on Life ;) {nm} May 20, 17:38
Well, they do use HER in their tech demo. :) {nm} May 20, 17:41
Couldn't they just find someone who sounds a lot like her and pay that woman to be their voice? May 20, 18:42
not if the intent is to deceive consumers into thinking it's Scarlett (misappropriation) {nm} May 20, 19:11
I think that's essentially what they are claiming {nm} May 21, 08:56
V: Trump campaign’s chief spokesperson Steven Cheung threatens lawsuit over APRNT May 20, 17:36
Trailer for AM I OK? premieres June 6 on Max. May 20, 17:16
X: Furiosa OMGBBQ posts floating out there on X from Empire's screening... May 20, 16:32
Embargo already lifted: 85% RT with 91 reviews May 20, 17:23
can you help me temper my expectations on this? May 20, 21:51
RTs "most anticipated" movies for May were Fall Guy & Back to Black... {nm} May 21, 08:36
Indian Painbrush founder Steven Rales has bought Criterion/Janus (doesn't envision changing their mission statements) May 20, 16:29
Anyone know the AMC secret movie tonight? {nm} May 20, 16:11
Regal's was EZRA. Decent chance that will be AMC's. {nm} May 20, 16:19
Per the AMC reddit, it's also EZRA for theirs May 20, 16:20
Thank you {nm} May 20, 16:36
Do you think AMC will continue them even if Regal stops? May 20, 20:11

I'd like to see BKING and DBAUT facing off in a scene. :D May 20, 18:49
Official trailer for Longlegs [LNLEG] May 20, 16:05
EmpireCity: Trust me bro. Comfortable after first few hours DEAD3 180+ could be 200+ OW May 20, 15:20
there's been exactly one $200m o.w. since the pandemic, and only three over $150m {nm} May 20, 15:23
The “Trust me bro” bit only really applies to “scoops”. lol May 20, 15:27
Remains to be seen if he actually has access to direct sales data anymore, because he has been less accurate {nm} May 20, 15:33
Same for EC, I'd put money down he's got nothing outside of that forum May 20, 15:52
His timing of posting about seeing WB titles aligns with film buyer screenings as well. {nm} May 20, 17:00
So if he doesn't actually have direct access, a friend of his is providing him the info at least. {nm} May 20, 17:04
I meant as far as presales/predicting OWs goes. But yeah, he works in the industry and has some level of comscore access {nm} May 20, 18:39
He does this every time and has yet to be right. {nm} May 20, 15:55
GFR: Sacha Baron Cohen is SKELETOR in the MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE reboot. Cue BORAT memes. May 20, 14:32
ERC: For the curious the Spider-Mondays re-releases of the AGARF films fell off a cliff after SPID3. May 20, 13:22
Tonight is Homecoming... decided to skip it to watch Ezra at MMM since I have to watch it anyway for review May 20, 13:24
I'm leaning towards them doing worse than the AGARF, but maybe Homecoming gets boosted by Downey Jr. {nm} May 20, 13:38
Typically for reissues the older films have more demand than the more recent titles. SPID8 got reissued to death almost. {nm} May 20, 13:39
First/Second act needs to be worked on the reboot, but third act is cracked. {nm} May 20, 13:07
Billy Wilder rolling in his grave (that's not how the acts work!) {nm} May 20, 13:27
I just noticed that IF is now 33 opening weekend pretty sure it was saying 35 just a min ago May 20, 12:48
35M (exactly) did look a lot like an estimate. . . {nm} May 20, 12:50
Probably over-estimated. Actuals will certainly be rolling in by now. {nm} May 20, 12:50
33 is a lot more reasonable than 35. But I guess we will know soon. {nm} May 20, 12:51
BOR confirms... May 20, 12:53
Having a strong easy-to-parse movie title can sometimes help... {nm} May 20, 12:00
Civil War was marketed as a big budget high concept tent pole with a hot premise. Ministry {nm} May 20, 12:01
Ministry = terrible title, period action film, UK geared vs US. Much harder sell premise. {nm} May 20, 12:40
I am surprised that Ministry was so lopsided to the US, but imagine Lionsgate sold off almost all INTL {nm} May 20, 12:52
Apes4: B+. Better than i anticipated. That franchise is very solid. {nm} May 20, 12:04
cannes seems to be pretty liberal with it's 11 minute ovations May 20, 09:54
Cannes always overly-enthusiastic about French filmmakers (see: Titane) Homecourt advantage kind of deal. {nm} May 20, 10:20
Titane of course actually was critically well received, just it also was far from a commercial kind of film. {nm} May 20, 10:22
Won the Palme D'Or... didn't even get noninated for an Oscar {nm} May 20, 11:45
Ovation Watch is just the trades way of having their own version of horse-race political polls to create "news" {nm} May 20, 10:24
TOP GUN: MAVERICK is an example of a huge box office hit that was only lukewarmly received at Cannes on the flip side. {nm} May 20, 10:35
Do people realize that most of the audiences at those premieres are involved with making the movies they're applauding? {nm} May 20, 10:43
Obviously some of the smaller festivals are likely skewed too. But Cannes/Venice should not be (at least for US films) {nm} May 20, 10:50
Dial of Destiny got a standing ovation at Cannes. Is that 'nuff said about the relevance of standing ovations? {nm} May 20, 11:12
Why wouldn't he? Presumably it would report an estimated on Sunday {nm} May 20, 09:53
I'm not positive if the rule is it has to play Friday - Sunday at least. It has been awhile since it has come up. May 20, 10:18
I think if it reports weekend box office, it's safe.. not sure what will happen with the replay $$$ from Sept 25 though. {nm} May 20, 10:44
DL: Kevin Costner is still trying to get financing for HORIZON PT 3 at Cannes May 20, 08:25
just start a winery {nm} May 20, 08:32
but don't let em read the reviews May 20, 08:49
Apparently Costner's character doesn't even show up until 1 hour in. {nm} May 20, 09:11
lol Read this explains why no one wants too waste more money after the great review and applause May 20, 10:00
