@Aerodude73 @HDMOVIESOURCE Assuming the 5-perf 70MM is 2.20:1. His prior three films were 2.20:1 on standard digital screens. Dunkirk and Tenet only gave them Flat containers, too, so if operators with scope screens didn’t format the lens, there was letter-boxing and pillar-boxing.

What aspect ratio will The Odyssey play in standard 2K Digital Theaters? If their screens are 16:9, wouldn't it be best to send them the 1.90:1 IMAX Digital File instead of 2.35:1? Because 1.90:1 will be closer to the native aspect ratio of many 2K Digital screens.

@kirkneverdied I remember when it came out, people were kind of lukewarm on it. Decent, but no Gladiator. While it wasn’t a runaway hit, it still made almost half a billion WW. It’s probably aged well. After Troy was when Pitt really started to hone his instrument as an actor.

Since everyone is sharing their memories of the reception to Troy and Brad Pitt specifically… I remember the reception to the movie being VERY mixed not HATE. Some are claiming everyone hated Pitt. I don’t remember that at all.

@Booker287282941 @WesleyW62623 I thought it was pretty bad. The lead guy is just insufferable. The girl is good at acting, though, and could be a future star. I hope her next movie has an actual story, and doesn’t just make her do ridiculous + obnoxious things for an hour before until an obligatory bloodbath.

@WesleyW62623 Calling immediate bullshit. There is no way this move is that good

Obsession is the best horror film since Hereditary. Good night.

@AVARY Nolan is too good a storyteller to make an outright turd. While it seems safe to assume The Odyssey will be a decided step down from Oppenheimer, I have an intuition that Damon’s sturdy presence is going to win audiences over…even some of the “chuds.”

My Odyssey outrage (what little I had) has gone full circle. It might be so wrong it’s right, and now I’m just curious with sick fascination. Has all this twisted controversy just fueled the interest? Is this some twisted marketing ploy? Will the angered only see it three times? I remind everyone, NO ONE HAS SEEN THIS MOVIE.

@then_right59532 @realsashastone Universally hated is an exaggeration - he was coming off a Best Actor nomination, after all - however, there was definitely a mass sentiment that he was going to be dramatically inferior to Nicholson.

@realsashastone Are you kidding? That casting was universally hated

Never happened.

@realsashastone I remember there were jokes about Joker being a gay cowboy. But when the first trailer was released the excitement about what he did with the character went through the roof, and people felt clownish for doubting him.

@Uzonna7 It was honestly my favorite Stallone as a kid. Was crushed when Cobra didn’t get as many sequels as Rocky or Rambo.

Cobra is what happens when you give a screenplay to a man who thinks "cleaning up the streets" requires a laser-sighted submachine gun and a matchstick. Modern action movies are scared of this level of testosterone. 🎬🎥 Cobra ❤️🔥

@CAMELCASTOff Why was Chrissie always on every FNT anyway? She’s not terribly knowledgeable about any of their topics. And she’s not exactly Carol Burnett in the comedic talent department. Most of her lines get a polite chuckle at best.

Huge FNT win, great statements by Gary, Based Jer, and Ryan regarding TheQuartering and flagging. Fantastic watch.

@TomAandTom1 @RoyPrice Forever I guess. You’re just supposed to commit suicide or retreat to a deserted island. No pathways of forgiveness or redemption. You no longer have a right to earn a living.

@RoyPrice How LONG are people cancelled? What’s it based on?

Is Joss Whedon still cancelled? If people are going to be cancelled, shouldn’t there be an official database somewhere?

@TylerCWhitmore Nolan was so autistic he released a new teaser to theaters every week for 17 weeks where the countdown clock changed. x.com/highonjon/stat…

All this Odyssey trailer discourse has me reminiscing about Oppenheimer. Nothing will ever compare to seeing this teaser trailer in theaters for months

@TMZ_Sports Why didn’t they just leave their spouses and become an item? They were clearly in love. It was like tbey were trying to get caught.

@JamesPPoole Nice vague slop!

Just saw a movie that set back video game adaptations about two decades. Yikes.

@RMBee Have you seen Hokum yet? I think you would like it. It has so many things in it that resonate and pay off.

That EVIL DEAD BURN trailer gives me so much joy.

@jordansfilms @SceneinCinema I remember Pitt grew a giant beard over a year for the conquistador segment. I think he got cold feet at the last second because he knew it would be an expensive failure. I love the stripped-down version with Jackman but I’ll always wonder how it would’ve been w/Pitt + 100 mil.

@SceneinCinema Undisclosed movie

Brad Pitt hated Troy (2004) so much that he wishes he wasn’t in it. Brad Pitt had withdrawn from a different undisclosed movie, and to avoid legal or financial penalties, the studio (Warner Bros.) let him go only on the condition that he lead another project for them — which turned out to be Troy. he was like, "Okay, fine, I'll do Troy." Pitt later described it as a “commercial kind of thing,” saying the storytelling lacked nuance and the camera was always focused on him as the hero, without the mystery he prefers in characters. Despite his personal feelings about the project, Pitt committed fully to the role, training for a year to achieve a physique inspired by Greek statues and even accidentally tearing his Achilles tendon during a battle scene. That frustration pushed him to change his career path, choosing more quality driven projects and later working with filmmakers like the Coen Brothers and Quentin Tarantino. In one interview, he even admitted, “I chunked that scene… I blew that scene.” “Yeah, I fluffed it. It could be better. I would love another shot at it.” Interestingly, some feel that flatness actually works for Achilles — a character who doesn’t care about anything except winning battles.

@bigmonkeong He loved those floating embers.

why is the official poster always so much worse

@peterrhague When the project was first announced they claimed it was about futuristic helicopter pilots.

What the hell is this? Full plate armour? In ancient Greece? They might as well be turning up in helicopters!

@LindyTasteful Shutting off the lamp to save bulb hours is prudent. Some programs will generate an automation to shut off the lamp if there’s no ticket sales, too. Some theaters burn their lamps all day though. They even stay on between shows.

Do they still play the movie even if nobody is watching?

@MayorOfSnark @DreadCentral Monkey had no competition, was from the director of a big hit, had the King branding. Would be very heartening to see Hokum have a very minimal drop in Week 2. Or even an increase. I think they’re chalking it up as a W either way. Hopefully they keep McCarthy in the fold.

@DreadCentral I'm actually surprised it didn't do a lot better. It was far better than The Monkey and that made 14 million its first weekend, and that wasn't even close to being as good as this.

Neon’s ‘HOKUM’ just pulled off a seriously impressive opening weekend for original horror. Damian McCarthy’s creepy Irish inn nightmare opened to $6.4 million against a reported $5 million budget. Story: [dreadcentral.com/box-office/571…]

@ProFootballTalk She should name ALL the names.

Hints emerge that Dianna Russini will eventually tell her story. Whether she talks, when she talks, and what she says could create a new wave of issues for Mike Vrabel and the Patriots. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…

@aakashgupta With all due respect, I think Martian and PHM are too jokey and desperate for audience approval to be considered “hard” sci-fi. I keep seeing them described as hard…if these are hard, what do you categorize 2001 and Solaris as?
