Blankments Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Got this trailer at Pawn Sacrifice. Looks excellent, but a bit spoilery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Binoche Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 The book is one of my all-time favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Freak Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 This didn't have a thread until now? The book is really good and avoids the major pitfalls it could have fallen into. Brie seems great and it's nice to see her getting accolades. That trailer is way too spoiler-y for my liking though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TStechnij Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) My director interview for post-poned until today, but I'll post the article when I get a chance. I bet this has a great PTA this weekend. Edited October 16, 2015 by TStechnij Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tau Ceti Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 On the art house side of things, this is my pick of the year so far. It's deeply affecting and nothing felt contrived despite the subject matter. It won't leave you. Could Tremblay actually get a nomination? I can't conceive of this movie without him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is getting a lot of buzz. I'm pissed it is major category fraud, but it'd be super neat if he did! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I'm trying so hard to not be hyperbolic, but this is the best movie I've seen since Her. It's absolutely extraordinary. You must see it if it's playing near you. Two hours later and the entire film is swimming around in my head. So many brilliant moments of terror, pain, hope and love. I don't know how much money it'll make or if it'll win any Oscars. Obviously in a perfect world, it would be make a lot and win all Oscars, but I'm just happy it was made. I can't wait to see it again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 What's the expansion plan for this? As in what cities on which dates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TStechnij Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I was told by Abrahamson and A24 people that it goes nationwide this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well nationwide and wide aren't synonymous. Are you in a metroplex, city or arts district? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The slow burn has clearly worked well so far and its PTA hold this weekend was perfect. But I think there's a danger in waiting too long before an expansion. I hope to see 400 theatres next weekend. It's being compared to Whiplash and their pattern so far is similar but I think Room can outperform it if handled right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Honestly, I think they ought to go wide this weekend. There's nothing else out with the kind of critical acclaim it has and it's the last chance to seize an audience before the big guns move in again.
