Denzel Washington's FENCES goes up Dec. 16, 2016 in NY/LA, wide on Christmas Day.

Didn't see a thread on for this film, even though I know people have predicting this film to be nominated and even win some Oscars. I'm particularly interested in this film, since I'm a fan of Denzel's previous two films a director. I'm especially looking forward to the performances.

fences is a great play. i've only ever read it and never seen it so admittedly i haven't had the full thing with it but it could be a serious awards ticket for denzel and viola if it's good.

It's going to get an big Oscar campaign, add Denzel's consistent BO track record + Christmas legs and I believe 50-60m is on the cards.

Trailer isn't online yet but I saw it before The Magnificent Seven today and it looks amazing, of course. Both Denzel's and Viola's Oscar clips were in it lol.

I saw the trailer before The Magnificent Seven as well and I agree that it does look really good

Really looking forward to this. I like Denzel Washington previous directed movies.

The trailer should really have the words "For Your Consideration" spread across it. Viola at the end of the trailer was serving true Doubt realness except even more histrionic.

the trailer really is just "here's denzel's clip for the oscars. here's viola's" with nothing else.

[Morieris]

Another clipshow teaser but at least it ramped up tension.

[babz06]

This is gonna do like 45-50m over christmas, with Oscar noms I'd probably add 10-20m more.

Now this is some FINE bait
