  1. so it seems like the pandemic will have no long term effects on the theatrical/VOD windows as some were expecting earlier in the year.

     

    Unhinged is dated for Nov 17 digital release which would be about 3 months after its north american theatrical release. I imagine Tenet will be in Dec/Jan as Nolan movies sometimes take longer to go to digital (Dunkirk took 5 months iirc)

    there is the AMC/Universal 17-day deal thing but that's probably just for box office bombs so it doesn't matter.

     

    also I am now convinced that the theater experience will never die out. if a once in a century pandemic couldn't do anything to change it. then nothing else would.

    That's like every Nolan film since Inception though. As long as the action and spectacle in Tenet is good (which has been the most praised aspect so far), I don't think many will care.

    idk about Tenet but Inception & Interstellar were very straightforward..

     

    I actually heard Nolan made the movie plot structure over-complicated on purpose to encourage repeat viewings.

    so that might help with legs.

    I don't think you know what boring means 

    English isn’t my first language but from what I’ve seen in film discussions online. Boring is a description people use to describe movies that are slow paced. like Roma/2001/BR2049/Leave No Trace/Portrait/Ad Astra/Let the right one in and basically any film that tries to be “artsy” in terms of pacing.

    Company they are using for security for these digital screenings are pretty strict with their restrictions: https://www.shift72.com/features/drm-security. They have measures that prevent people who use proxies from accessing the website and I heard that they'll be asking specifically for Canadian credit cards.

    That’s disappointing but I doubt I could’ve gotten tickets either way since they will be “limited” and capacity will be similar to that of a real cinema. And TIFF members will get them a week early too.
     

    I think there’s still a chance for some of the high profile titles to get leaked/recorded. But I wanted to check some of lesser known ones

    This honestly feels like a film IFC would release and would not be in the awards conversation at all.

    The only reason this movie is in awards consideration is because of the cast. The film itself will be a boring slow paced gay romance with strong acting and showy cinematography like Lee’s previous film. Which is definitely something that wouldn’t attract the academy’s attention. Critic circles would give it more love tho.

     

     

    im taking it off my best picture predictions for now (even with a weak year I bet it’ll miss, even Carol couldn’t get a BP nom) but I’ll keep it in for acting/cinematography, until I see it at least. 

  6. rewatched the trailer a couple of times, I think i'm gonna dislike Paul Dano's Riddler who just sounds like a discount Joker. 

     

    also I dont think i got the point of the last shot either, why did he have to punch that thug 13 times? is it because this batman is still in year 2 so he doesn't have that much strength and a single or double punch isn't enough to knock someone down?

    TIFF' 20 schedule is up. Ammonite & Nomadland are getting a digital screening online. (seems like most of the Gala & Special presentations are getting online screenings as well). I know tickets will be limited but this will probably still create a piracy nightmare for them if those high-profile movies leak. 

     

    it'll only be available to canadians but I'll try to see if i can get around it with a VPN

    that was for Spongebob. $10-11mn with $900k Canada.

     

    but since West Cost and New York is closed, that is around $6.5-7mn.

     

    Unhinged was $600k in Canada, giving about $6.5mn NA, minus closed markets $4.25-4.5mn.

    oh i mixed them up, that sounds about right for Unhinged then. is canadian box office usually 9-10% of US? or are anomalies common for some films.  Did avengers endgame make 70M-80M in Canada?
