… for three years. also this is the entire output of two whole studios. should really be at least 40 {nm} jimothy Aug 09, 09:06

Paramount might finish behind Lionsgate this year, which would be sad. {nm} Antibody Aug 09, 09:13

Warner Bros might too. {nm} Antibody Aug 09, 09:16

should require a 2k theater release and $20m P&A commitment on each film if you want to go down that route {nm} Moviesnob Aug 09, 10:18

Yeah, they're definitely going to weasel this with barebones barely supported 800 theatre "wide" releases otherwise. {nm} notfabio Aug 09, 13:39

Obviously there's some nuance here. Clockwork doesnt need 20m or 2k theaters and their releases should count. You just dont want an IFC Moviesnob Aug 10, 06:15

Bleecker's Crosswalk (events based) seems to be working as well. Every film should have a unique strategy. I just dont think they have the Moviesnob Aug 10, 06:18

Par will probably acquire some B movies to fulfill contractual obligations. Films like Mark Wahlberg's "By Any Means" Peterlee Aug 10, 10:48

thats what we're saying, and thats why a screen and P&A commitment is needed {nm} Moviesnob Aug 10, 11:47
