That's insane. What theater was it, Empire?

FYC: Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzUKcXxbU4U Also, most of the musicals I have watched are Bollywood so I'll post some of my favorites in case anyone wants to watch them, and I'm hoping for suggestions of some others to watch, because I have not kept up with the more modern ones. Om Shanti Om - Homage/Satire of musicals and Bollywood film industry Main Hoon Na - (action-comedy) Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... - Family melodrama I haven't actually seen this one yet, but I'm going to have to watch it after seeing this musical number: Bajirao Mastani - Historical epic

When reading his full quote I do agree with him, but you have to admit that the headline sounds ironic when he had to go to Netflix to get the funding for The Irishman while Marvel movies are one of the few things people will actually pay to see in a theater these days. It just seems that more people prefer, or atleast prefer to see in a theater, the "Theme Park" style of entertainment rather than films which fulfill Scorsese's definition of "cinema." And this is not to say being produced by Netflix is a bad thing. Their willingness to blow money on non-blockbusters and provide a place for content that would not succeed in today's box office environment is great, and I hope they survive the arrival of D+ and the other streamers. I just wish they would find a way to be able to show their movies in theaters as well for those of us who don't live in LA/NY.

Event status confirmed. Let's not forget that the last two MCU movies where William Hurt returned as Secretary of State Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross cleared 2B.

Underwhelming reactions from TIFF indeed.

@Thanos Legion You write for ERC? https://twitter.com/ERCboxoffice/status/117143532387783

Do you consider Race shit? That was the first Indian film I watched. I guess it's nominally bad, but it's in that so bad it's good territory. Highly entertaining.

The two good ones.

Yeah, I was floored they got that release date to begin with. That whole week and a half was gangbusters.

I still have my list if you need it.

This was supposed to be #1 of the year, so I'm counting anything under Endgame as an under-performance.

I've been meaning to watch One Piece, it's just the sheer number of episodes seems so daunting.

@Charlie Jatinder You were right.

I just saw this for the first time. Too bad they missed out on all those guys.

Jurassic World .....

That guy was clearly trolling. There is no need to get so worked up about that thread. You can take from it what you want. I find it to be an interesting look into how the international box office landscape has changed over the past decade. Anyway, on topic I'm really looking forward to the 3D for Avatar 2. I'm expecting something mindblowing. Having never seen Avatar in 3D, I'm also hoping that gets re-released in IMAX 3D. People always tell me how great it was. In your guys' opinion do you think any movie released since has surpassed or matched Avatar in the use of 3D? My personal favorites that I have seen (I don't watch much in the format) are: 1. Life of Pi 2. Hugo 3. Doctor Strange Edit: Also, as a continuation of that Flight of Passage discussion from earlier, I was talking to a guy today about his recent trip to Disney, and he said he waited in line 3 hours... for his second ride through. People saying Avatar is forgotten are delusional.

AMC didn't have a queue. It crashed for hours. Guess they've learned from that mistake

Speaking of Titanic re-release. I still remember the funny articles about Kate Winslet being censored. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/titanic-3d-cuts-china-311644 https://www.theguardian.com/film/2012/apr/13/china-censor-kate-winslet-titanic

Those cam videos really do not do the ride justice. Not only is the 3D spectacular, and on a huge screen that fills your entire field of view, but the synchronized motion, wind, mist, and smells all work together to create a truly immersive experience. This is the first ride where I actually caught myself forgetting it was a ride and thinking I was actually there. The attention to detail is massive as well, on my second ride of it I noticed the Ikran breathing and shifting under me, and I'm sure there is even more stuff that I missed. Also, the theming is amazing. The line for this ride is better than many actual rides. In short, it's the best theme park ride I've ever been on and it's not close. Well worth the ridiculous wait times.

Superhero fatigue think pieces coming in 3...2...1... Edit: Nvm I see they've already begun

Funny you should say this, because I was just on a plane and the woman next to me was watching Aquaman. I guess they’ve got that airplane demo on lock
