AJG Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 “Only in theaters in 3 weeks”. Surely putting the release date in the tweet is clearer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel M Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Some snippets of the Jet song and I think one of the latter half tony-maria duets. They sound good and Spielberg seems really passionate about it, but it still feels a little pointless imo. It looks like it's gonna be extremely close to the original in almost everything.

Chaz Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I wish directors would go back and remake bad movies instead of taking something perfect and trying to equal it. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 A handful of IMAX theaters near me have posted showtimes for this that will be on sale soon (assuming tickets will be going on sale after the first reactions drop on Monday following the screenings) so an announcement for the format appears to be imminent. Funny to think that this will probably end up playing on more IMAX/PLF screens than The Matrix overall thanks to the fact that this is opening right before the Spider-Man chaos cause that's locking in PLFs throughout the holidays for all day at a lot of theaters near me that have their showtimes about to go on sale up (at least ones with only one giant screen).

I still don't understand why if he clearly sees how it's still relevant today why he didn't modernize it if not to make it fresher then at least to differentiate it from an existing masterpiece. Also, always interesting and a bit disorientating to realize the West Side they're fighting over is mainly where Lincoln Center and Fordham Law School now stand amid very expensive apts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 A West Side Story set in 2021 honestly wouldn't work because it would just consist of all the characters feuding on Twitter for 150+ minutes with little dramatic tension. Keeping it a period piece is the way to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping it a period piece is the way to go. I'm not so sure it wouldn't work, someone could have an interesting take on it. But I'm certain Spielberg would never make it. There's been talk for a couple of years that most big directors stopped making movies set in the present the moment social media/internet became a huge part of everyday life. Scorsese,Spielberg,PTA, Wes, Tarantino haven't made a contemporary movie in 15 years and even others that have like Fincher and Nolan, are also slowly going period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderByte Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I mean it's setting is pretty much a key thing that sets it apart from Romeo and Juliet. Making Lion King without animals is just Hamlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
