Well, the stories of both films ring true regardless of the political affiliations of their audiences, but I'm sure this will definitely be a successful film. I lean a little bit towards conservatism, but I think this film is important nonetheless, and I definitely want to see it in theaters. 1 Quote
KeepItU25071906 Posted May 20, 2018 Posted May 20, 2018 (edited) trailer is good. but I still have one issue: don't remember any decent thing from Spike Lee in 2010th. May be here's the exception. Cross the fingers. Edited May 20, 2018 by KeepItU25071906 Quote
WrathOfHan Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 I got the trailer at Upgrade today, and this is getting Dolby Cinema Quote
filmlover Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 This is set to open at one of the local arthouse theaters on August 10 so I imagine it's getting a semi-wide (500 theaters or so) launch at the very least that weekend. 1 Quote
baumer Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Looks pretty damn amazing. Hope it's as good as the trailer suggests. Quote

I think it’s going fully wide on the 10th. AMC’s trailer cards don’t say anything about limited, and the poster is even up at my theater Quote
Jake Gittes Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 I'm sure it'll have a healthy PTA no matter the number of theaters. Quote

This film is buzzy; they mustn't hold it back. 1 Quote

dudalb Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Might be Lee's first box office success in a while. I am sure Spike will make some controversial statements,,probably about Cheeto Mussolini....to get free marketing for this film. Let's face it, the MAGA crowd won't be seeing this anyway..... Quote
