Saw the trailer at Fant4stic, I think it looks really good

[Spidey Freak]

I thought this had a limited release last year?

It screened at festivals last year (Telluride, Toronto, etc)

So will it be considered as a 2015 release? Is it eligible for consideration during the awards season?

As long as it was not released for any qualifying period in theaters last year, it is considered a 2015 release.

 

 

It's not uncommon for films to get screened at film festivals but not get released until the following year (since the festival is in many cases where they get bought by a distributor).

 

For example The Hurt Locker screened at the Venice and Toronto Film Festivals in September 2008, but was not released in U.S. theaters until June 26, 2009.

Very interested in this film, and it looks like it's pretty good too (7.8 avg. rating on RT, 95% score). Hopefully it plays well in limited release.

This goes wide next weekend. Seems smart seeing how Walk and Pan are bombs in the waiting

[Avatree]

This released in like 20 cinemas in my country, fortunately one of those was the one I work at. The film is one of the best movies of the year, if anyone gets the chance to see it, they really should.

This was pretty good overall, but Michael Shannon is a god. Every movement, every expression, every line reading is mesmerizing. We're lucky to have him.

Where did you train? ON A FARM?

Did he remind you of JK Simmons in Whiplash?

[RichWS]

Comparison didn't come to mind but I can see it. Simmons is so wonderfully over-the-top. Shannon reminded me of a guy I worked two years for.

[Chewy]

Shannon is the best. I've even come to appreciate his performance in Man of Steel. He read that script and knew the role was some bullshit, so he shows up on set giving zero fucks and goes back and forth between mugging for the camera and SHOUTING HIS LINES

Michael Shannon is awesome.
