cannes seems to be pretty liberal with it's 11 minute ovations dennkenn May 20, 09:54

Cannes always overly-enthusiastic about French filmmakers (see: Titane) Homecourt advantage kind of deal. {nm} notfabio May 20, 10:20

Titane of course actually was critically well received, just it also was far from a commercial kind of film. {nm} notfabio May 20, 10:22

Won the Palme D'Or... didn't even get noninated for an Oscar {nm} TheWeekendWarrior 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} wow platinum May 20, 10:24

Yeah it's kind of empty hype, but can (in a limited sense) give an idea of how a film will be received critically/commercially (sometimes) notfabio May 20, 10:34

TOP GUN: MAVERICK is an example of a huge box office hit that was only lukewarmly received at Cannes on the flip side. {nm} notfabio 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} TheWeekendWarrior May 20, 10:43

Depends. Obviously Studio Premieres are 90% planted folks with direct financial incentive to applaud. Vs Festival that is usually 5-10% {nm} notfabio May 20, 10:49

Obviously some of the smaller festivals are likely skewed too. But Cannes/Venice should not be (at least for US films) {nm} notfabio May 20, 10:50

Dial of Destiny got a standing ovation at Cannes. Is that 'nuff said about the relevance of standing ovations? {nm} terraformingearth May 20, 11:12

Basically even if your film is C+ C- material, you tend to at least get a 4-5 minute ovation (DIAL got 5 minutes) as a courtesy. {nm} notfabio May 20, 11:15

Not to me, because that is not what's typically looked at closely at that Festival. Big commercial releases are icing at Cannes not the cake {nm} goodvibe61 May 20, 11:19

DL: SUPER/MAN is just going to be a two day FATHOM EVENT but one of those days is Saturday so not sure if Antibody will count the gross? notfabio May 20, 09:47

Why wouldn't he? Presumably it would report an estimated on Sunday {nm} TheWeekendWarrior 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. notfabio 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} TheWeekendWarrior May 20, 10:44

DL: Kevin Costner is still trying to get financing for HORIZON PT 3 at Cannes notfabio May 20, 08:25

just start a winery {nm} wow platinum May 20, 08:32

but don't let em read the reviews wow platinum May 20, 08:49

Apparently Costner's character doesn't even show up until 1 hour in. {nm} notfabio May 20, 09:11

lol Read this explains why no one wants too waste more money after the great review and applause keegan25 May 20, 10:00

SITWAP: FALGY hits digital tomorrow (courtesy Collider) TheWeekendWarrior May 20, 06:33

Lol sweet I just watch from my couch {nm} keegan25 May 20, 07:23

they're not gonna make any more of these kinds of summer tentpoles if the only place they can run them is on streamers {nm} wow platinum May 20, 08:18

So far Jordan Peele and Nolan are the only fillmakers UNI has stretched their contractual theatrical minimums fornimums {nm} notfabio May 20, 08:38

(The 50+ minimum 30 days) {nm} notfabio May 20, 08:39

Apparently most people do not want "this type of summer tentpole" being made. {nm} terraformingearth May 20, 08:42

it's been holding perfectly fine, as summer movies generally do, despite the lower opening weekend and losing all its PLFs {nm} wow platinum May 20, 08:45

And it's 20 minutes longer ! God help those of you who didn't go to the theater to see it LOL. goodvibe61 May 20, 08:37

In the Land of Saints and Sinners (remember that movie?) also hits digital tomorrow {nm} TheWeekendWarrior May 20, 10:11

V: Dan Snyder who financed [APRNT] to fight the release with the cease-and-desist letters flying. Antibody May 20, 06:08

#ReleaseTheSnyderCut {nm} wow platinum May 20, 08:18

A positive portrayal? Be a short film. Title, roll credits. 😉 Antibody May 20, 09:32

"with plot details shrouded in mystery." I'm gonna say the plot isn't that mysterious. {nm} terraformingearth May 20, 11:11

Marvel: Tickets on sale now for #DeadpoolAndWolverine Antibody May 20, 06:01

Get Deadpool's Premium Package, which includes 2 tickets, the Official Best Friends Necklaces, Antibody May 20, 06:03

And oddly, the AMC website didn't crash. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior May 20, 06:28

SOP is 30 days with a final trailer launch for MCU. So this is unusually long for them. So that alone could explain it. {nm} notfabio May 20, 09:15

First Look at Skeleton Crew leaked ofrom merchandise Antibody May 19, 19:18

Baby Max Rebo! or Mini Rebo! 😎 {nm} Antibody May 19, 19:20

Summer Pick 7: the web page is done!...thanks, KaiGee!...links to both the page and the original entry thread inside... tealfan May 19, 18:37

WOR: QUEER is 3 hours and will world premiere at the Venice Film Festival Antibody May 19, 17:54

THR writes some BS about how much we care about these standing ovations (but do we really?) TheWeekendWarrior May 19, 17:39

THR timing guidelines are to start the clock the moment people jump to their feet, and stop when most people begin to sit down, Antibody May 19, 17:53

I just don't understand Rishoutfield May 19, 19:14

Has anyone shown any correlation between ovations and, well, anything? Success, maybe? {nm} terraformingearth May 20, 07:31

Cannes: The Substance getting some good OMGBBQ budice May 19, 15:52

DL: 13 minute ovation, but French director in France so... (it is Titane esque) notfabio May 19, 16:33

A different opinion: The Substance is so bad like I cannot express how bad it is Antibody May 19, 17:42

most of the negative reactions to this (supposedly) feminist film are from women, and most of the positive reactions are from men, Antibody May 19, 17:44

If Uni really thought they had even the faintest hint of a playable theatrical title, they would have shuffled it off to Focus Features {nm} notfabio May 19, 19:06

DM: BJON4 setpics - she has 2 kids Antibody May 19, 13:41

SNL: Stop Punching Character Actors in the Face Antibody May 19, 13:06

Nerdist did it seven years ago wow platinum May 19, 15:06

https://twitter.com/benmekler/status/1792239885866373387 {nm} wow platinum May 19, 15:07

DL: HORZN 11-minute, 40-second ovation Antibody May 19, 12:48

V: seven-minute standing ovation. Antibody May 19, 12:49

I guess that may be part of the story behind Ovation Watch differences, some are counting STANDING ovation vs applause in general. {nm} notfabio May 19, 13:03

Also hope that it does snag some IMAX screens, may hold off on seeing it until it has some. {nm} notfabio May 19, 13:04

THR's review is pretty negative, feels like a streaming TV project, film ends with a preview for HORIZON: PT 2 {nm} notfabio May 19, 13:50

bet it gets better press than Megalopolis tho {nm} wow platinum May 19, 15:46

Winehouse fan here & I have both her documentaries...but in the trailer, Abela's performance felt forced to me & I lost interest...also... tealfan May 19, 13:55

Deadline: IMGNF $34m, APES4 $25.7m, STRN3 $11.5m, BTBLK $2.8m nfred659 May 19, 07:15

I don't think these are official studio estimates for the weekend. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior May 19, 07:16

BOR says $2.85m for BTBLK {nm} TheWeekendWarrior May 19, 07:28

IMGNF is $35 million according to TN (which only runs official studio estimates) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior May 19, 07:41
