90% on Rotten Tomatoes for @NorthwoodPie It’s an amazing dream come true, even if it doesn’t hold. This is more than we ever expected to happen with the movie. I didn’t even think we were going to get an RT page or have the movie be available around the world but here we are!

@MissJilianne How dumb are y’all? It’s $100 for a 12 month pass. It’s 20 bucks more than a US citizen

I think it’s disgusting the United States charges $100 per person visiting our country to enter a National Park. Embarrassing too!

@zachlanebryan I’ve been posting on box office forums since 2006, this has always been a major discussion, it existed long before that too

somethin weird I’ve noticed this year when a movie comes out theres a lot of talk and press about whether it made or if its going to make its production cost back? since when in the history of ever have people cared about how much it cost to make a movie & if it’ll make it back?

@LukeBarnett Who rides with the kids!??? And why do families pay the same price and get fast passes (those don’t exist anymore) for space mountain but I’m not allowed too?

My Disney pitch: Leave Fantasy Land to the families. Kids or adults accompanying kids only. Space Mountain, Pirates, etc? Sure. But do you, a 45 year old hanging out at the park with no kids REALLY need to ride Dumbo? Also, make Fast Passes for families only. It's a park for kids, let the kids go to the front of the lines.

@CinemaTweets1 Not on fire at all, we’re behind 23 with inflation and still selling less than 2/3rds the tickets as pre pandemic

Folks, the 2026 Box Office is on fire. This is the best Box Office run Cinema has seen since COVID & we are just getting started. I’m going to continue to reiterate the following: 2026 will be one of Cinema’s biggest years of our lives. This is such a fantastic time for Cinema.

@jswriter65 Naw

If Steven Spielberg is your favorite director you need to watch more movies.

@AwardsWatchErik Terrible rule, going to get way less songs nominated in a already tiny category

One of my favorite new Oscar rules comes in Original Song: "For songs submitted as the first new music cue once end credits begin, the submitted video clip must include the final 15 seconds of the film before the credits roll." #Oscars #Oscars2027

@TheChrisLambert By 2nd half you mean 3rd act. The home alone stuff is less than 1/3rd of the movie

The second half of Skyfall is, for me, overwrought, while also just being a less interesting Home Alone. Casino Royale >>>>>> everything else

@metaplexmovies This looks so bad

can't think of another film technique that went from being pretty much beloved by film fans only to become so overused and poorly made that I usually resent their inclusion quite the same way as the modern application of "oners"

@bobgoochman I once thought this was the worst movie ever made, but I like it more than 75% of movies now haha

We’ve legit lost the plot. I honestly have zero idea what people are looking for these days but there needs to be a major shift in criticism. The movie I saw was well written, well directed, beautifully shot, insanely well performed and the sound was amazing

@SaraGonzalesTX Nothing makes me feel safer than hearing 3 languages in one place.

At a park in Plano, TX with my 5-year-old. We are surrounded by foreigners, speaking multiple foreign languages, making it more difficult for my son to make friends. This is my hometown. It’s unrecognizable. I want my country back.

@b0newalljackson Because it’s epic, I saw it at that age and had no issues. I saw the lost world in theaters at 4. At 8 we watched alien and aliens back to back. People are too sheltered today

90’s dads were like “ yeah my six year old can handle terminator 2: judgment day “

@JosephKahn Correct

The studios decided they are tech companies. They chased after Netflix or more importantly, Netflix's stock valuation. They purposely blew up the theatrical window to promote their streaming apps. They knew they were sacrificing theatrical profit for streaming position and they had to do it very fast. Since covid, they have trained the audience to believe the thing they are selling, portions of time, should be a close to free experience. They tried to hook the audience on their streaming apps by pushing their biggest movies at unreasonably low subscription cost, which was just a drug dealer trying to hook a customer. It was at the expense of the artists who make these movies, who depend on distribution revenue. The product is only as valuable as the rarity of it. The studios are traditionally in the "distribution" business, controlling the windows of rarity and setting the value of access. What has happened is distribution is not the primary business now, subscription is. The studios are in the app business. They are no longer selling movies, they are selling apps. The movies are there to advertise the apps. The audience loves movies. They do value theatrical experience. It's a fundamental part of humans to share stories in a communal space. You're not killing concerts, or churches, sporting events, political rallies, bars, clubs, or movie theaters. But you can train an audience to devalue any of these things if you make them believe sitting alone at home is the best way to experience anything. That is what studios are telling everybody by cutting the theatrical window short as possible to get the app in your phone. If the studios reanalyze what they are, realizing the distribution is as important as the app, they would widen the windows. I think it's already happening by the way. They need a Hail Mary.

@ScottMendelson All these movies cost way more than you think.

If the reported over/under $175 million budget is indeed accurate, then, unless the film is an inpenetrable-for-casuals dumpster fire, this guestimated $71 million Fri-Sun domestic debut (which would mean around $90 million over the Fri-Mon launch) qualifies as a solid start.

@JosephKahn Finishing up my 360k feature and the vfx team was like you can save X amount of money and save us time if you allow us to use AI here. And I had to be like sorry, you gotta spend that extra time and we’ll spend that extra money

All my clients I'm currently working with on music videos and commercials are requesting there is no AI in anything. They want that good old fashioned CGI. The premium is the human hand.

@9mmballpoint Yeah starting at 12 I used to get dropped off at the theater every week

To give you a sense of how quickly the parenting world has gone insane, I'm a Millennial and my friends and I all worked as babysitters when we were like 12

@DaRamblingMan @grok @jee_vacation @buperac @JonnyRG1 Naw, they said 90-105 in abc and fox news

@grok @jee_vacation @buperac @JonnyRG1 And the CRJ-900 was actually going around 24mph on the ground, not landing speed, so much much much less energy than even in Grok's calculation.

So you mean to tell me, an airplane can go right through the World Trade Center that had steel structure beams of 4 inch plate every 40” using 12 different grades of steel with a yield strength of 100,000 psi but if the same plane were to run into a firetruck on a runway the plane is completely destroyed. Got it!

@OocTobeyM It was the most disappointed 14 year old me had ever been in my life…. How times change, didn’t know how good I (we) had it

Imagine seeing this as a kid, one of your first times in a movie theater, on the big screen… WE WERE BORN AT THE RIGHT TIME

@Son0fBatman5 @The_Boy_Scout12 Because no one me included would have had any idea what those names mean. You wouldn’t have gotten an audience reaction

Gotta be worst reveals in comics. Could you imagine if this was any other character. “The Joker. That’s my legal name.”

@cheo_coker You ether have it or you don’t

Yeah, but it's like his 30th movie. If you're a novice, don't try this shit at home.

@_nilliewelson @adamhlavac @IMAX Thank you for being the same person here

@adamhlavac @IMAX Only one of those is IMAX, the other is LieMAX

New @IMAX fit.
