Plain Old Tele

We don't have a review thread for this? Anyway, it was sublime.

Fucking holiday shipping.

No, it’s just a surprise gift.

I, ROBOT is decent enough. PUPPET MASTERS, though....

Air quality 10x hazardous levels. Just awful.

This is wild (and pretty rad): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Universal_Friend

I just found out THE DISSIDENT got in — it’s a documentary about Kashoggi and his murder by the Saudis. It’s by the guys who did ICARUS — I know some of them!

I’m sorry to hear that. Is there another place you can submit your reviews for possible publication?

It’s gonna average around 2m gross per minute.

We have an ongoing IMAX thread in the Speakeasy: Also, the LF Examiner site has some data (though some of it is out of date: http://www.lfexaminer.com/theaUSA.htm http://www.lfexaminer.com/theaintl.htm

Nah, with television/streaming production (and even post-production) have completely wrapped by the time episodes air. Whether episodes are released individually or collectively, it doesn’t really matter for that season.

Not the @CJohn ranking system?

Potter nerds... do you agree? @Noctis

TV would be ancillary revenue for an indie production company, after their film was bought by a distributor. There’s no standard distribution deal: typically a distributor will pay an upfront price (up to or exceeding production budget) and then once that amount is exceeded by revenue, the following profits are split up between original investors and distributor. (Not split down the middle, but the investors could expect something like 20% back from those profits). Amazon (and other streamers) basically are very aggressive with their distribution offers (since they have all the power): it’s now rare for them to cover production expenses up front.

^^ how did you assign numbers to the grades?
