@nightwriter22 Know for sure it’s going to be a launchpad for Dune/Digger and Werwulf.

Paul Greengrass’s historical drama The Uprising, starring Andrew Garfield, is scheduled for a theatrical release on September 11, 2026, via Focus Features. It would make perfect sense to see its first trailer attached to Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, which hits theaters on July 17, 2026.
The film chronicles the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 against King Richard II. The cast also includes Jamie Bell, Stephen Dillane, Cosmo Jarvis, and Thomasin McKenzie.

@realsashastone I honestly didn’t like it in theaters because I don’t care for jokey sci-fi, and the premise has been done to death. And I’m frankly just burnt out on Gosling’s shtick of basically playing himself and mugging at everything.

@MarkLikesMovies It maybe wasn’t a great Mummy movie but it was good as a variation on Evil Dead.
A lot of horror fans liked it for its style.
It was a masterpiece compared to something like The Bride or Supergirl (as far as objectively bad 2026 releases go).
All WB movies btw.

How do I give a movie zero stars on Letterboxd?
Lee Cronin's The Mummy is the worst movie of the year.

@aakashgupta If people genuinely don’t like The Odyssey and it tails off quick after a good opening. I’m sure Spidey will get an August run in IMAX.
I’m sure End of Oak St. and Dog Stars will also be chomping at the bit to get some shows, too.

Let me explain exactly why IMAX locked the biggest movie of the summer out of its theaters, because the business logic is ruthless.
Nolan's The Odyssey holds every IMAX screen on the planet from July 17 to August 14. Spider-Man opens July 31, dead center of that window. IMAX chose a Greek epic over the franchise that printed $1.9 billion last time out.
Run the math on what they walked away from. IMAX screens make up under 1% of the world's theaters but routinely deliver 10-20% of a tentpole's opening gross. On a $550M weekend, that's tens of millions in premium tickets, gone by choice.
Sounds insane until you look at Oppenheimer. It sat on IMAX screens for months and pulled roughly $190M in the format, close to 20% of its entire gross from that sliver of screens. Nolan films hold the format longer than any superhero movie ever has.
And The Odyssey is the first film in history shot entirely on IMAX film cameras. Nolan spent years pushing IMAX to build lighter cameras and a full 70mm pipeline to make that possible. He is the product roadmap.
The pattern repeats in December. Avengers: Doomsday loses IMAX too, because those screens are committed to Dune.
Spider-Man will gross half a billion in three days without the biggest screens in the business. IMAX is betting the format's identity is worth more than any single weekend. On the Oppenheimer evidence, the trade was never even close.

‘SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY’ is eyeing a $550M opening weekend at the worldwide box office. Half a billion with no IMAX screens.

@theonlyjordan__ @VK_HM 1-4 are great.
5 was comprised and rushed but still good. SG has some great standout moments as Capone in s5.
Harrow was the heart of the show though.

Hardly the first time Stephen Graham played a role also played by DeNiro - he was a great Al Capone on Boardwalk Empire (which is where he first worked with Scorsese.)

@ERCboxoffice Time to pivot back to Despicable and relegate the minions back to the background.
Also Uni should’ve kept Obsession theatrical exclusive thru July, clearly.
Miraculous that they gave it two months though…they’re perpetually salivating to pull that ripcord.

@CopaExMachina His daughter has an extraordinary character arc in Death Wish 2.
English
In Death Wish, after Paul the architect's life is entirely demolished by the criminal behaviors he excused, he heads out to Arizona for a job and get his mind off what's happened. But what's really happening to Paul's character is a rebuild. Like the phoenix (also the capital of Arizona), Paul the architect is on fire. Out of the from the ashes Paul the Vigilante will be born.

In Death Wish, Paul's an architect for a very strict reason, he's a builder of societies. A society that has mutated into hell. One he chooses to ignore because he'd never create such a thing. To him it's some other factor. I talk about it more here - x.com/CopaExMachina/…

@BillHuntBits For as much as people glaze it online, I’m surprised there’s not more outrage about A.I. not being available in the format.

This is Paul Kersey's final transformational act as into the citizen vigilante. The hunter. His first kill.
When he gets back home there's another bit visual irony. His home now completely covered in drop cloth. Like the massing model of New York, his home (civilized life) is now the abstraction.
He kneels in the very spot his wife was murdered. After, he has to violently purge his civilized self and is reborn as the apex predator of the criminal.
Death Wish (1974) | Michael Winner
CinemaCopa@CopaExMachina
In Death Wish, the amount of visual and narrative irony in the 2nd scene cannot be overstated. After five movies it's easy to forget Paul Kersey wasn't some gung-ho vigilante right off the bat. In fact, he's a bleeding-heart liberal pacifist at the start of it all. As an architect shaping the environment people live in, Paul stands over a massing model of New York. This model represents Paul's psyche regarding the city. To him, the metropolis and the crime within it are total abstractions. Crime stats are just numbers on paper, and the city is clean and clinical rather than the "war zone" everyone warns him it really is. He's only awakened to the violent reality surrounding him when the very demons he makes excuses for finally come to his home. What makes this scene so enduring (and why Death Wish remains a foundational piece of American cinema) is that the exact ideological battle happening over the plastic model is being fought in modern discourse again today. By grounding Paul's in these anxieties, the transformation into a punisher of the criminally immoral holds a mirror to a still-relevant western culture. It shows that when a society feels the system can no longer protect it, the line between a civilized citizen and a predator become terrifyingly thin. Death Wish (1974) | Michael Winner

@YoullFloatTew @ThatChrisGore Parents get mad if there’s nothing for their kids to take a picture with.
That Toy Story standee needs to stay up for the entire run.
English
@ThatChrisGore ???? As a theater manager, all standees & promotional material comes down after film is released.
English
On Monday at an AMC Theatre, I witnessed a worker taking apart the Supergirl standee to put the remains in the trash. This is after the first weekend.

@ThatChrisGore I guess there’s a school of thought that once the movie comes out, there’s less of an imperative to promote it.
Maybe they have a big backlog of standees and needed to clear out real estate.
Side note: you should see the cretins they hire off the street to assemble these.

@adamhlavac Some theaters let their bulbs burn all day though. You walk in with a lot of time before the show and you can see light on the glass. I guess there’s a risk it may not turn back on if it goes off between shows.
English
@adamhlavac If you’re using xenon bulbs it’s good to at least turn them off for a no-show. Although it’s good to preserve the laser as well.
You can actually automate it to trigger ending automations of a show if no tickets are sold after a set period of time.
English
I was a projectionist for 6 years. It didn't matter if the theater was empty. The show still goes on.

Jackass: Best and Last is gonna end up making less than half the opening for the very first Jackass: The Movie over 23 years ago. What happened? Are the fans happy to just wait and see it on Paramount+?
