I've been successfully prodded by @samsummers0 into joining Letterboxd. Come and say hey and judge my Four Faves: letterboxd.com/benstravis

Ethan Hawke, man

@darren_scott Influencer screenings for films that don’t get press screened??

@BenSTravis I mean, what’s next? Tik Tok people doing set visits instead of film magazines?

Dunno what's worse, debuting your trailer on Tiktok (a vertical video app!) or releasing it in tiny two-second chunks. Just put the damn things on YouTube in 4K!

@gjlewis10 @JordanMBKing Yeah, tbf I'm not against studios using Tiktok as there's a *huge* audience there, including millions of film lovers. Just find it frustrating that that's *the* trailer premiere, in a vertical format, not an ideal way to experience it. God it looks GREAT though eh!

@BenSTravis @JordanMBKing I get where you’re coming from Ben, but we don’t live in the same world as the young generation. If this is a way of getting audiences engaged and excited to go to cinemas to see the film, then I’m all for it. Cinema is in a precarious place, it needs bums on seats

I’m sorry, but what are they doing?? Denis Villeneuve and Linus Sandgren surely don’t want you to watch the 1/4 vertical slice DUNE trailer, surely

This really felt like A Moment. Huge. HUGE. #Oscars

OSCAR WINNER RYAN COOGLER!

Damn, no Oscar win for The Ugly Stepsister. But it still wins the award for Film That Made Me Feel The Most Physically Sick, so that's something

in mourning for Buffy: New Sunnydale, and honestly same

I'm live-blogging the Oscars here for Empire, come and follow along: empireonline.com/movies/feature…

The not-Cillian-Murphy zombie from 28 Years Later has arrived at the #Oscars red carpet.

The most important bit of Oscars coverage is here:

@_starwarsnews Appreciated, thank you!

@BenSTravis I deleted it after I saw your comment and reposted it with the right info!

Love (most of) the Star Wars online community, and pleased that ppl are excited for Empire’s Mandalorian And Grogu cover feature. But it’s frustrating to see misinformation attributed to us, and misattribution of quotes from the mag. Best to get your own copy and read in full!

@Mando3Updates Glad you enjoyed it!

@BenSTravis I absolutely loved the article Thankyou so much 🥹

@Thechosenone875 @sw_holocron Yep, am sure @NickdeSemlyen will be doing just that in a few weeks! No set visit on this one, but lots of interviews 🤙🏻

@BenSTravis @sw_holocron Thanks for your reporting anyways. I hope you do an empire shameless plug podcast episode about it. Love starwars and would love to hear more about your set visit 👍

@Thechosenone875 @sw_holocron Yeah, misinformation is good for nobody. No reason NOT to delete, other than the engagement

@BenSTravis @sw_holocron You are right they should delete this. Anyone with a cell for a brain and who knows a tiny bit about filmmaking knows Favreau wouldn't make such a drastic change going into the movie and just completely drop a tool they've been working with for 3 seasons.

@PSWsenate @sw_holocron BOR GULLET!!

@BenSTravis @sw_holocron We appreciate your clarification and transparency. Us and Bor Gullet know the truth.

@Youngstar99999 @DiscussingFilm @empiremagazine @JacobFisherDF @AndrewJ626 Thanks for taking down so quickly @JacobFisherDF 👍🏻

@Youngstar99999 @DiscussingFilm @empiremagazine @JacobFisherDF @AndrewJ626 🙏🏻🙏🏻

@PublicationOrdr @haterhunter450 Hope you enjoy!

@BenSTravis @haterhunter450 I'm reading it right now!

@maggieofthetown @sw_holocron This is not the first time I’ve had this issue with Holocron either. Quite frustrating really. Prioritising engagement over accuracy is not good for *anyone*

@BenSTravis @sw_holocron They will never delete misinformation or make adjustments, I’ve found.
