Bacon Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Releasing the movie in Fortnite would be really cool if I was back in highschool and I played Fortnite. Like, my friends and I loved the party share thing Netflix had when it first launched on the 360. It was cool watching your little avatars in their seats before the movie started.

But seriously the anti mask sentiment in Utah alone would make this the number one box office pandemic hit. People here of all ages just do not care. They'd probably go out of spite or something.

johnny Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 They could charge 50 dollars to stream it and I’ll buy it. My friend has a boner for Christopher Nolan so he might even pay the full 50 himself and I won’t even need to split it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of their late summer/early fall stuff will slide though as they want to give Tenet every opportunity to make money. There is this little network of three independent theaters here in Cincinnati. One focuses on major new releases, one does mainly indie/foreign films, and the third is somewhere in between (mostly catering to older audiences). They all opened back up in limited capacity this summer, but the one that would carry all the new blockbusters closed back down because, well, there aren’t any new blockbusters, and I guess they weren’t getting by with showing Jaws and Jurassic Park like all the drive-ins were doing. I guess what I’m saying is, I know at least one theater that would literally be saved by Tenet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very skeptical that any even moderately large percentage of customers will return to indoor theaters in the US market given current circumstances. I’ve been bouncing back and forth on whether or not to bother trying to reopen my indoor if Tenet does go September 2/9...I don’t know. It seems like it will remain incredibly slow for the balance of the year even if we get good new product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like it will remain incredibly slow for the balance of the year even if we get good new product. My guess would be that the first weekend would do very well. I think there are enough people that want to go out - and many of them are the anti facemask people. I think they would sell out theaters for a week or so. I just think it would not have much legs and attendance would quickly drop off after the people who are willing to go out see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most 3+ hour movies scare the shit out of me, though. Oddly enough, it’s not usually the three hour long movies that annoy me. It’s the stuff around 2:15-2:20 that could easily been 1:50 without a lick of effort. I LOVE 90 minute runtimes. I think that amount time is a real challenge to filmmakers to be efficient with their time. But there are great movies of all lengths!

Keyser_Soze Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 90 minutes is the perfect length for when I want to watch a movie and have to go to work later (or was the case when I had work later) but I'm down for something longer if there's nothing to do after.

Kal-El814 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Just release it on streaming platforms, you chode, and we’ll see it in theaters when we can get in there without being concerned that it might kill us. We all know what we’re getting into, some BWAAAAAAAAAAHs, shitty treatment of shallow female characters (assuming there are any female characters at all), dope special effects, and an audio mix that renders the dialogue unintelligible. Let me give you my money, I’m one of the six people who saw Memento in the theaters. You owe me, Nolan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emblazon Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 They would make significantly more money if they released it on streaming first. Or simultaneously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
