DL: SAG, not having anything better to do, sends out rules for its members on what Halloween costumes they shouldn't wear this year notfabio Oct 19, 13:12

Who would pay dues to an organization that tells you what costumes you may wear in your private life? {nm} terraformingearth Oct 19, 13:24

Deadline used the word "rule" not SAG {nm} Moviesnob Oct 19, 13:27

err, sorry, SAG did say they could break strike rules {nm} Moviesnob Oct 19, 13:33

Feels like CYA guidelines on the part of SAG to discourage someone hosting an Instagrammed $250,000 BARBENHEIMER Halloween Party. notfabio Oct 19, 13:59

yeah, for the influencer-level members {nm} co-bro Oct 19, 16:16

Ryan Reynolds "I look forward to screaming “scab” at my 8 year old all night. She’s not in the union but she needs to learn" notfabio Oct 19, 15:34

Picturing Daniel Radcliffe quickly trying to get a refund on a Wolverine costume {nm} ballpark_frank Oct 19, 16:44

Personally, I think that is silly...so what if someone goes to a party as Batman...get a life SAG, sheesh. {nm} Flash Oct 20, 09:01

DL: Trust us bro, our sources say DEAD3 isn't making May 2024, CAPTAIN AMERICA is likely moving back to May. notfabio Oct 19, 11:20

After Disney already left it off their schedule and aftrr SLEVY just said it won't make the date. {nm} Antibody Oct 19, 11:26

As money grubbing as it would be, If I were Disney if the 50% that is done is at all coherent, I'd release DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE Pt 1 & 2. {nm} notfabio Oct 19, 11:39

Make it into a Hall H type event in theatres, and pad out to 90 minutes with first look at CAPT4/AGATHA/IRONHEART. {nm} notfabio Oct 19, 11:42

But of course the simple solution vs anything bonkers is likely what they'll do, MCU burnout or not. notfabio Oct 19, 11:50

THR: SAG A-Listers (Emma Stone/George Clooney) has proposed to remove their dues cap and give lower paid members residuals first. notfabio Oct 19, 10:56

The goal of which to make the bridge in negotiations easier to cross (Clooney is wildly wealthy off his non-acting ventures at this point) {nm} notfabio Oct 19, 10:58

and why this proposal has nothing to do with actual residual pools co-bro Oct 19, 10:59

Not ruling out that SAG didn't really dot their i's and cross their t's, but seems in part a flashy PR stunt to indicate wiggle willingness {nm} notfabio Oct 19, 11:18

Writer Twitter is in Al Powell watching the FBI swoop in to take over negotiations mode "They're shooting at the lights . . . " {nm} co-bro Oct 19, 11:23

THR: Tracking is not great for The Marvels either 70 to 80 million notfabio Oct 19, 09:54

DL goes with 75-80 notfabio Oct 19, 10:09

[CMAR2] tracking with $75M-$80M. {nm} Antibody Oct 19, 10:41

Will be quite a thing if Five Nights somehow outopens The Marvels (pretty good shot now that at least Taylor Swift will) {nm} notfabio Oct 19, 10:38

THR updated to $75-80M as well. {nm} Antibody Oct 19, 17:24

TFS: Trailer for Faraway Downs (the redited Australia on Hulu). notfabio Oct 19, 06:34

This not an "Extended" trailer, it's a one minute featuretter Antibody Oct 19, 06:34

no KON2 {nm} Antibody Oct 19, 06:32

KONG2 {nm} Antibody Oct 19, 06:33

Makes sense to hold that to Brazil ComicCon in early December CCXP where it will be received better than Age 30-50 exhibitors. {nm} notfabio Oct 19, 08:25

Also they are likely dumping the KONG2 trailer on AQUAMAN 2, so CCXP times out better, {nm} notfabio Oct 19, 08:43

Teaser for Anyone But You [ANOBU] Antibody Oct 19, 06:11

Offputting but probably deliberate. Makes it seem like a 50 shades or grifter movie not a romcom. Holiday release feels notfabio Oct 19, 06:18

Comedy doesn't draw like it use to, so makes sense. {nm} Antibody Oct 19, 06:21

and they're supposed to be . . . what to each other (other than hot)? {nm} co-bro Oct 19, 08:30

Cue Jurassic Park meme "Ah, there is romance and comedy in your romantic comedy, right?" it's either very shrewd or..... notfabio Oct 19, 08:39

The CinemaCon footage teased a very raunchy movie, but of course, that won't necessarily make the movie better than the teaser suggests. {nm} Jay_Beezy Oct 19, 09:20

DL: Very low priced IPO needed, ETM Distribution to release Holiday Twist in 500+ theatres on December 1st. notfabio Oct 18, 14:00

The press release I copied in there they sent a weird alert to disregard, but I'd imagine it's mostly still the plan. {nm} notfabio Oct 18, 14:00

AMC at least is showing it, they have it pre-loaded on their website. notfabio Oct 18, 14:02

DL: Netflix to the moon in afterhours (reclaiming what it lost earlier today plus a little extra), confirms they are raising prices. notfabio Oct 18, 13:56

Clearly to fund their intended brick-and-mortar plans. {nm} Jay_Beezy Oct 18, 14:37

I guess it doesn't really matter what your true value is. {nm} goodvibe61 Oct 19, 09:43
