Emile Hirsch was "disappointed in humanity" when #SpeedRacer bombed. "[Speed] was fighting for his art like we were, and then corporate capitalism just crushed us both." hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-f…

@CTYM18 @BlackMajikMan90 Spielberg’s 2000 - 2005 run is a run that the most lauded filmmakers of current crop will never achieve. Also, what the fuck are you talking about.
English
@BlackMajikMan90 Zemekis and Spielberg are pre 2000s goats, who got so weirdly cgi obsessed and kept using it in the worst way possible on shit projects
English
The only correct answer is Robert Zemeckis

Which director do you think has totally lost his touch with age?

Male bonding but it’s just collectively losing your mind to a 2000s dance anthem.

@MattBelloni I cannot stress enough how much these guys need to dump a truck full of cash on Larry David’s driveway. Him or Aubrey Plaza. Fuck, even Mulaney.

Oscars ratings hit a 4-year low…..so let’s run it back!

@hwalhl240655 @michaelmiraflor I didn’t say everyone is lame. Thanks for playing.

@SCULLIBUND0 @michaelmiraflor If everyone is lame, then no one should point fingers & pretend to be better than the rest 🤷🏾♀️

Among my hottest takes are:
- Disney adults (esp with no kids) are ruining it for families by inflating the cost of everything.
- Disney adults should seek therapy to deal with childhood issues, not more trips to Disneyland.
- Disney should not cater to Disney adults. It’s for families. It’s for the kids.
The New Yorker@NewYorker
For the most devoted fans, Disney has engineered an ecosystem of financial entanglement that goes far deeper than park tickets or merchandise, which keeps the magic—and the debt—perpetually compounding. In 2023, Ashley, a freshman at Quinnipiac University, in Connecticut, had $15,000 in her bank account. Excited by her newfound freedom as a college student, she decided to start going on solo trips. Walt Disney World, in Orlando, Florida, seemed like an obvious choice. She went during her winter break. Then she returned, six times, in two years. Soon enough, her account balance had dwindled to just five dollars. Perhaps unsurprisingly, many adults who have accumulated Disney debt seem to be chasing a feeling from their childhoods. One woman, who has been to Disney World more than a hundred times, said that visiting the parks takes her back to a time when she had fewer worries: “It’s the nostalgic feeling of what brought you joy when you were little and you didn’t have the stressors of adult life.” Read more about the Disney adults putting themselves in debt for the pursuit of magic: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/_JqtFg

@hwalhl240655 @michaelmiraflor The answer to this is nothing. Disney adults are just as lame as Marvel and Star Wars adults.
Barbie adults aren’t really a thing and that film was made for general audiences and not for terminally-online nerds who define themselves by brand alliance
English
@michaelmiraflor What's the difference between Diseny adults & star wars fans? Or DC & Marvel fans? Or anime fans? Or comic books fans? Or even women who went to see barbie?
I don't like any of these genres & they all look & feel the same to me. So why is one stigmatised & the rest aren't?

@IMAXEnthusiast @TheGuiltyGamer2 @BrandonDavisBD Okay so now you’re talking about LieMax screens and not real IMAX, which again means we’re mainly looking at paying for a brand name instead of an experience that is near identical to all other PLF screens. It’s shit like this that makes Disney bring out their Infinity Vision bs.
English
@SCULLIBUND0 @TheGuiltyGamer2 @BrandonDavisBD At 95% of IMAX theaters available to the public.
So get outta here with this why would you want to “watch a movie that only fills 65% of the screen” nonsense.
1:90 vs 2:39 aspect ratio still makes a staggering difference in terms of cinematic immersion.
English
I think it flat out sucks big that Avengers: Doomsday won’t be released in IMAX to open. Yes, Dolby is an incredible format, there are other great options.
I wish there were more IMAX screens and they divided screenings but they have their Dune 3 deal, sensibly.
Dunesday is gonna be dope but it’s rough to see the probably biggest of the year movie lose an epic format that a lot of people want to watch it (myself included).
Culture Crave 🍿@CultureCrave
IMAX CFO says Disney’s ‘Infinity Vision’ is a marketing play “From our view, we feel it’s a marketing play to try and offset the fact that they don’t have an Imax platform” “[Marvel fans are] among the savvy and most discerning moviegoers out there, and there’s a reason why we’re the undisputed leader” (via @THR)
English
@TheGuiltyGamer2 @BrandonDavisBD What does IMAX mean in this context though? What exactly does he enjoy about watching a movie that will only fill 65% of the screen? He could get the same experience on any other premium large format screen without the extra cost. He enjoys paying for a brand name?
English
@SCULLIBUND0 @BrandonDavisBD Clearly, this fella enjoys IMAX. Many people do. Why debate and argue 😂
English
@BrandonDavisBD Dune 3 is shot and designed for IMAX. The actual real estate that the Avengers film will take up on an IMAX screen will be identical to any other PLF screen. No difference outside of charging you a premium for an experience you’re not getting.
English
why are douchebags so keen to make weird little remarks like this? i also want to see Dune 3 in IMAX. i literally explained but for your simple antagonist brain, enjoy seeing movies in the biggest screen possible surrounded by people who enjoy that like i do. imagine just enjoying things and having preferences on how you enjoy them, I bet you did one day!! hope you can get back to it some time.

@CarbonHelium Hey so there’s an update! Sydney IMAX are now showing… *drumroll*… the first Top Gun and only the first Top Gun. Because why the fuck would they program the film actually shot for IMAX out of the two. Meanwhile Hoyts doing both.
English
@SCULLIBUND0 Real as fuck, but doesn’t mean us melburnians should be screwed over too 💔 we don’t have EVT
English
Again… why the FUCK isn’t this showing in Australia when we have IMAX theatres???
ali ! 🏳️⚧️@shadowoftheali
i hope every single one of yall explodes and dies

@Lons Eh you’re trying to bring this up on a technicality. Crash was a 2005 commercial release, hence it being a 2006 Oscar nom. You had me checking my dates lol. Still can’t believe this bullshit beat Munich.

My submission for a worse 2004 film than BP winner CRASH:
The bonehead semi-erotic Angelina Jolie thriller TAKING LIVES!
Eric Goldman@TheEricGoldman
There are plenty of Best Picture winners I was whatever on or felt were overrated but honestly don’t think I’ve ever felt one was my least favorite movie of the year (Crash maybe comes closest and even then, I think I could find worse I saw that year)

@Variety Why does Variety keep platforming this bozo? Who gives a single fuck what Mr Beast thinks about the Oscars?
English
MrBeast defends the #Oscars after being asked by Time’s Sam Jacobs what he’d change about the show ahead of its move to YouTube in 2029:
“It seems relatively fine. The last one, I didn’t see anyone complaining online. I thought people liked the last one. And [Conan O’Brien] did a good job hosting.”

Every time they release a new clip from MICHAEL, I can’t help imagining it as the cold open before the intro sequence to a new episode of MINDHUNTER.

@shirtsthtgohard Would be PERFECT if it were in the proper aspect ratio.

@MovieUshermx @RichardLNewby3 He’s on the record as hating the right wing. But he is unfortunately glad-handing right wing proponents that will be able to affect his bottom line. Paramount has distribution rights over Titanic and Terminator.

@RichardLNewby3 People finding out that Cameron and Nolan are Right-wing supporters...

@RealYeetedBean @HoytsAustralia Sydney has the Samsung Onyx screen at Entertainment Quarter which is the same thing

Does anyone have a roll call of who's in director jail right now? There's gotta be a Letterboxd list or something.
