Is this kid supposed to be Billy?

Actually I also have this to contribute:

I hate Scott Eastwood's smug fuckin face. That's all I have to contribute.

Yall think they'll announce the cast for this at NYCC this weekend? It's been forever.

That photo of the kids literally looks a Disney Channel musical.

Saw this last night and I liked it pretty well. Every second Tatiana Maslany isn't on the screen the film drags though.

I mean, her and Bill were the only ones with a character arc. I love the book, but stuffing 7 characters into one movie doesn't work that well when you only have two hours. They could've made a composite of Stan/Mike and Richie/Eddie, IMO.

Yeah, my problem with RPO isn't that I didn't understand the references...

Listen, I'm a dirty slut for nostalgia projects, but the nostalgia in RPO looks so badly conceived. Nostalgia works because it reminds you of your childhood and makes you ache in your heart. The RPO trailer was so cold and corporate and unappealing. That's why IT and Stranger Things work as odes to the past - nostalgia is supposed to be warm and fuzzy like hot chocolate. The RPO trailer felt like ice water.

Does that even make sense?! Like syntactically?! Jesus be a fence.

Ready Player One looks awful. That trailer was garbage.

Did you see Fantastic Beasts?

What? Yates is boring enough to almost completely suck the magic out of Harry Potter. I've never seen someone make such a vivid world feel quite so flat.

I've seen the movie twice now and two moments brought both houses down like crazy: 1. When Richie says "I'm gonna have to kill this fucking clown" 2. When Ben kisses Bev to wake her up

Honestly, this was one of the best theater-going experiences I've had in a while (along with GET OUT) and why I'm predicting major legs. People were super into it and hollering and clapping and laughing at virtually every second line. It was actually kind of exhilarating? I suspect when I catch it on demand in six months, the film's flaws will stick out way more without a raucous crowd and I'll be like, 'uh, why did I like this so much?'

What are the chances it beats Deadpool's OW? I mean, the run has been so crazy so far...this might as well happen too.

Sadly, he doesn't cuss once on Stranger Things. He's much more of a earnest, meek Bill-type on that show.

These OW numbers are insane! I hope they give the kids some giant bonuses - they carried the film through some very rough narrative patches and they probably made next to nothing. The chances any of their contracts included a percentage of the gross is probably like zero.

I love Ava but this looks like a hot mess. Tomorrowland 2.0

Can you PM me a link?

Line of the movie: "You PUNCHED me in the face, made me walk through SHITTY WATER, dragged me through a CRACKHOUSE.....AND NOW I'M GONNA HAVE TO KILL THIS FUCKING CLOWN."

The kid cast was mostly phenomenal but I hated, hated, HATED the kid who played Stan. There was a guy behind me who would audibly groan whenever the camera panned over to him. Same, dude, same.

I wonder how much WB spent on marketing. I feel like there was a TV spot playing every five minutes.

Trying to think of what DC superhero movie Muschietti could direct next. Maybe Black Adam given the Rock's effusive Instagram post a few pages back? I feel like WB tends to 'promote from within' with its actors/creatives more than any other studio.
