@YourMother the Edgelord, I put The Mole in IMAX despite Johnny Test. I was wondering if you'd be down to split it or otherwise maybe just give it to me because it's not like Johnny Test is a serious effort lol

 

Marked Up Time has about half the third act left in it, it'll be up by the deadline, but I've got work in the morning so I'll finish it up tomorrow.

I moved it up a week. So we can both have IMAX.

Mass Effect is fully up after an evening pass of edits, plus some fine-tuning of the opening sequence.

Taking a day or two off really helped clear my mind a bit.

 

Spoiler

I think I know how to solve the first act and 'crux' issue now.

To be honest, I am glad I have the time to fix St. Claire, reading it to myself it doesn’t seem right.

Just get Harry Potter to solve the Horcrux.

To further elaborate:

 

Spoiler

The answer was surprisingly simple and involves a rather minor change that kind of has a gigantic ripple effect in the end. I'm actually kinda shocked I didn't think of it earlier.

 

No spoilers as of right now but I'll be happy to elaborate once everyone's read it.

Fuck it cause I’m bored.

Doesn't Chuck and Liam just release in about 2,500 theaters?

didn't stop it from doing pretty well in 2.0

 

(tbh, i'm expecting around 70-80M for Chuck and Liam, it only started doing well once the sequels kept clearly getting better)

That’s where I’m expecting tbh.

 

Also think a bit more theaters couldn’t hurt.

[Blankments]

why does it need more theaters

I think I might’ve made a mistake legs wise.

@Xillix Marked Up Time is up. Enjoy a movie where the third act is notably more detailed than anything else in it. Where I imagine what the third act clocks in at 56% of the entire film lol.

[Rorschach]

I should have Odyssey 3 live sometime between 6:00 and 7:00 CT. I made a lot of progress yesterday on the film that really the rest of my writing today is just expanding on some of the elements in the climactic battle.

 

So yeah, something to look forward to.

@Xillix I understand you run the schedule, but please do not move your movies without announcing them. I just noticed you're dropping Carnosaur on March 20, a release date that has been completely open until 9 hours ago. Now I gotta rethink my entire schedule because I don't want to release my biggest film this year that targets the same young adult male primary demographic the same day as a relatively big budget, sci-fi horror movie.

Actually I do understand this because I had put my film, When A Stranger Calls against his film, Carnosaur because I was targeting some of the same audience, but yeah he should tell us first

@Xillix if you want I can move Haunting Hour so that way you can get the 1/10 spot as again. I really don’t care about it. So that way Blankments gets 3/20.

[Xillix]

@Blankments My bad. I can move it again, I'm not especially attached to that date. I only put it there to get away from WaSC and because it was empty. I'll push it into the 27th.
