Where was this? -
An absolute phenomenon. Tom Cruise is the man.
-
This is actually not a bad idea. I'd love to see TGM in 3D. Those scenes in the canyon would be intense.
-
It is starting! Fair point.
-
Avatar has September, Spider-Man too.
-
@EmpireCity has been vindicated again.
-
It's exactly this that makes it fun.
-
Agreed. In fact it could even work in their favour, people love a come back story. However, I'm not confident at this stage.
-
I mean Avatar is further out and we have a teaser + poster. Why the delay on any marketing?
-
Can you imagine? What's the current record of most pages before a movie opens? BvS?
-
Agreed. If we don't see something soon (within a couple of weeks), I fully expect it to be delayed.
-
They need to bring back Iger. Also Jim is the icon, not Avatar (not yet anyway). DIS couldn't drag him down a slope.

I was fortunate enough to attend a talk by Nicola Beaumont at PML and she openly said that they'd be 10 years behind where they are now on both Marine Systems Modelling and on their Ocean Acidification work were it not for the support of JC. They're on the south coast Jimbo and very welcoming to visitors, if you find yourself in that area I'd suggest a visit. The sheer amount of projects they're working on is astounding and provides some hope that we may yet 'turn the tide'.

You have to hand it to DIS, their ability to drag iconic characters through the mud is almost impressive.
-
Rating the masterpieces.

I cannot wait for The Abyss 4k release. -
you love to see it.

A lot of people find his interdisciplinary mastery difficult to grasp. They usually have one job, focus on one thing. Whereas with people like Jim, who is ostensibly a polymath, and near-Billionaire, he has both the time, and intelligence to dedicate himself to multiple things. It's why you'll see a lot of people making that error in thinking he has spent the last 13 years making these movies, when he spent 2 of the 3 years immediately after '09 on the challenger deep expedition. The fact that even that level of understanding that someone could do that many different things escapes people shows you the size of the gulf between Cameron and his detractors.

Cruise: They are to different things. Top Gun is a joy ride and shouldn’t be looked at beyond that. Born is about real people and real events. Top Gun should be looked at as going on Space Mountain—it’s like a simple fairy tale. I'd bet he'd say the same thing about TGM.

Minions: The Rise of Gru | July 1, 2022 | Illumination

At this stage they're almost (if not already) iconic. -
This is the entire reason Titanic only gets 99/100 from me. I've said it before and I'll say it again, it needed a big Irish bear to really be perfect. Correct. They also have an analogy to two-spirit people - it's the reason why they're not totally afraid of Jake and the Avatar's in the first place. They're familiar with the concept of one's brain being different from one's body (to the extent Eywa has done so in the past anyway). If you're really interested in this check out his work with the Plymouth Marine Labs and OceanX (for current projects he's working on). Jimbo is correct, he basically said that he's glad NASA etc. are still pushing for that tier of exploration but that we need a greater focus and push on saving the environment we do have. The work he has done with Barry Didato, Ray Dalio, and a host of others over the past decade+ is in the order of billions of USD in R&D and policy work for environmental causes.

If people dodge seeing it in the theatre knowing they can catch it on streaming then it is hurting the business.
-
I don't think we've seen the bottom of the barrel yet either.
-
There is nothing like a proper press tour to really ingrain a movie in the mind of the public. Seeing those jets at the TGM premiere will certainly stick in my mind far better than any movie I ever heard of on a streaming service.

I'm getting 3 of each set.
