General Movies & TV Thread

Movie theaters and physical media > streaming.

(Not that I despise the latter, but sometimes the quality shifts and there is the annoying moment the movie stops for reasons (such as poor cellular service), etc.)

Then again I’ve only been seeing some old movies in theaters recently and often there are very few people in there. Plus with the big screen and the fact that I don’t own a big TV, the cinema is the number one way to watch a movie.

I think society should stop accommodating ADHD Tik Tok brain rot.

Instead of charging an upscale ticket for those of us who want to enjoy a movie without others being on their phone and taking pictures and talking, charge a premium ticket for a theater set aside for people to watch the *LIVE ACTION* disney remake currently in theaters with their phones and snapchat and tik tok.

You're not disliking theaters, you're disliking people being rude in them. Two different problems.

I've personally never been to an Alamo or somewhere similar but it's wild to me that some people want stricter rules about phone usage but are fine with a movie turning into a full dinner experience. Is it not just as disrupting?

i was hoping that someone caught up on the contradiction of my post lol
food smells can be distracting, but people eating a full meal dont really talk or check their phones. it sounds crazy but on the enzian theater, people are eating and is not as bad (plus the arrangement of seating is different.
the chairs arent next to each other. theres space between people, feels like a living room.
its also the change in expectation, you go knowing it will be different

When I saw Oppenheimer (in 70mm! Yay!) the audience was absolutely quiet and behaved. Probably because they were 1) enthralled and 2) 70mm showings bring out film geeks who know how to behave

This definitely has me interested, a lot of great talent involved.

Looks like the new Jurassic film is using Thailand as a stand in for Suriname.

If it were to happen, I say just scrap Blade's current production cycle, let him write, recast and just let him cook.

Believe Akiva's only producing, not writing. He's had some wins but overall, deeply inconsistent. His recent YA movie actually wasn't bad though, so maybe it'll be fun.

 

[Lucky Planet]

didn't they just make one?

But no Nice Guys 2. Goddamnit.

Amazing.

Amazon’s Freevee has A.I.-generated 12 Angry Men poster, for some reason

It's a complete mystery why Freevee is using an A.I. image with 19 scary guys on it as the poster for 12 Angry Men
