Its nationwide debut will be August 2, but it'll see expansions for both this and next weekend.

Nickelodeon's a more popular and recognizable brand to people, and it gives Viacom more of an excuse to promote the film on the TV channel. That simple

At this point right now, unless The Farewell completely bombs in its expansion, Awkwafina has to have a great chance at a nomination here, right? Especially since I'm pretty sure Erivo and Ronan are the only "safe" options atm

Still no actual footage. Trash!

@aabattery @Jake Gittes James Gray about to make the whole Fox deal worth it for Disney...yay?

And we even have a comp...kind of. Obviously, these two aren't a perfect match, but what are you gonna do?

The Lion King Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-2 Days and Counting Sellouts Showings Seats Sold Total Seats Perct Sold TOTALS 0 112 4,783 19,516 24.51% Total Showings Sold Today: 5 Total Seats Added Today: 326 Total Seats Sold Today: 731 That's about a 57.5% jump from yesterday. From a raw numbers perspective, starting from a really high 464, that seems like a fantastic jump. Again, I have no comps, but 731 tickets is still 731 tickets.

Whose to say this won't get an Oscar?

Pasek and Paul coming in to save the day

Yeah mods, it's been a couple weeks. I think it's okay to open the thread now.

tbh if I wanted to produce a live-action Lion King, I would have gotten Julie Taymor to do it and have her re-create her vision from the Broadway show, costumes and all. It would make way less money, but it'd be cool.

If you go on Thursday, you'll experience its magic on the big screen in surround sound (y'know, if you actually get it and Uni doesn't do Trolls 2 or whatever)

y'know, it might be playing in theaters with Lion King on Thursday. 🤔

Thicc Thor, or scrap the whole thing.

Pitbull's a dog tho

https://variety.com/2019/film/news/ad-astra-joker-rambo-the-aeronauts-venice-film-festival-1203268644/ Big rumors for Venice so far are the Noah Baumbach movie with Adam Driver/ScarJo, The Pope, The King (👀), The Aeronauts, Against All Enemies, The Truth (Hirokazu Kore-eda's next movie), Ad Astra, Joker, and...the new Rambo movie? The Irishman, The Goldfinch, and Gemini Man aren't expected though.

Very odd fellow he is. The only movies he ever seems to watch or talk about are Disney movies, yet he lives in a constant fear of every Disney movie underperforming. Homeboy really out here worrying if Bob Iger can pay for his big yacht that holds all of his smaller yachts.

MPR didn't start selling tickets until a couple days after that TV special aired.
