The Roland Emmerich part of it is definitely a problem but I feel like calling it a remake is a stretch. I don't think this is a straight remake of Lawrence of Arabia the movie as much as it is another adaptation of T.E. Lawrence's story, only this time as a show. I generally don't consider movies (or in this case a show) made about a historical subject to be remakes of whatever movie was first made about it. It's not like Titanic was a remake of A Night to Remember.

I should have seen this coming but when a movie has its trailer running 24/7 for months you should expect a full crowd full of normies who WONT SHUT THE F**K UP.

I feel like they've announced releases of like 15 new movies in the past week that weren't on anybody's radar.

Ehhh. Yeah Bernthal basically plays a tough guy in everything but his characters in The Punisher, The Walking Dead and The Bear are very different. He's at least got range.

Gerard Butler ever since 300.

Gerard Butler ever since 300.

Even those romcoms he did where he was probably miscast anyway?

Even those romcoms he did where he was probably miscast anyway?

In each of those romcoms I just assume he was doing some secret spy bullsh** when the camera wasn't on him.

Movie Theater Chains Put $2.2B Bet on Box Office Rebound With New Upgrades

North American theater owners unveiled plans for fresh capital investments over three years to draw moviegoers out of the house with a more premium experience at the local multiplex.

www.hollywoodreporter.com

The new theatrical space investment is to come from eight cinema chains in the U.S. and Canada: AMC Entertainment Inc., Regal Cinemas, Cinemark, Cineplex, Marcus Theatres Corp., B&B Theatres, Harkins Theatres and Santikos Entertainment. Together, the national and regional circuits have over 21,000 screens and bring in just over two-thirds of the North American box office.

Theater makeovers by installing luxury recliners and other amenities aren’t new for the exhibition industry. But taking advantage of the current industry rebound — which included the summer success of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes and Twisters — calls for recognizing that the box office per patron metric is partly driven by moviegoers paying extra for Imax and other premium theater offerings.

The latest investment from North American theater owners is set to go towards upgrading locations with laser projection technology and immersive sound systems, better food and beverage options, adding arcades and bowling to locations, and enhancing theater air conditioning, lighting, signage and carpeting.

I hope they upgrade my local AMC that still looks like it's stuck in 2008.

Cutting the trailer/commercial time to 15 minutes max would be a nice start too.

The Substance

One of the best films of the year for me. Margaret Qualley has beautiful psychotic eyes. Demi Moore has always been a good actress, but she has mostly been a miss when choosing material, but this was aces. Coralie Fargeat puts to shame a lot of them so called genre directors working today. I’ve said it before and long ago, but she and Julia Ducournau can go toe to toe with ANY director working today and often times it wouldn’t even close.
