Full trailer for the Leonard Bernstein biopic:

I know the ceiling on biopics isn't super high, but I'm excited for this nonetheless.

I was thinking about this watching the Bob Marley trailer before Killers of the Flower Moon and the big problem with most biopics is that the stories aren't actually interesting. The vast majority of them are about either drug addiction or getting ripped off by management. I'm not a Bernstein expert but it seems like there's a story to tell about him that should be more interesting than Elvis or Elton John.

A review I saw said the makeup is very distracting because it makes him look exaggerated.

Now the question is will it mention his mentoring of Lydia Tár

I mean, even his estate felt the need to clarify it so it would only be natural

This has become a thing in prestige dramas. Reminds me of Steve Carrell in Foxcatcher and Charlize Theron in Bombshell.

Reviews say it's a fun if indulgent flick, nothing special but a good time at the movies.

It has a Panic Room-style entertaining genre movie feel.

Don't press play
Yeah based on those two alone I'm watching it, and the trailer's fun (even if that's literally a 30-years-old-this-month Simpsons gag at the end). And the rest of the cast looks good, including the lead from the 'Demon 79' episode of Black Mirror.

yeah we were celebrating yesterday. When I got to Universal they told me that we needed to get 30m internationally total.

Got that in like a day. Job feels a little more secure post-Exorcist failing. It was hard to overcome those Exorcist reviews though to be honest.

And no one cares about an exorcist sequel let alone one from DGG at this point.

Where’s fnaf? poo poo still poppin. Kids are going apeshit over it from audience reaction videos.

The movie was alright. I don’t know the games.

It's a fan service movie for sure and not that scary or particularly great but it gets ALL the details from the games right and their stupid huge amount of lore and the fans showed up.

After a screening an exec said the kids might not go to the theaters if it gets bad reviews and I mentioned all the adults telling me that Gremlins wasn't a good movie and you couldn't keep me out of that theater when it came out. Gremlins was on TBS this morning, it's a sign.

Oh kids are grappling with the idea that critics these days are stupid idiots that don’t matter in the long run.

This was for them. They used some dumb meme fnaf song at the end credits and the video for it has nonstop posts about how much it meant to them they used this song ect

It’s cool

Getting the details right is worthwhile in any case, but even more so for a fan service product. Well deserved.

Fnaf is 100% not for me but I'm jazzed for the fans. Gotta be so cool seeing it given a proper treatment for how wild of a ride it was for the game series.

And that's with it streaming on Peacock. That's either really good for the movies or really bad for Peacock.

Exorcist box office is actually fine if you consider it to just be a horror movie, and not deluding ourselves into thinking that it is some kind of elevated horror akin to the 1973 original, especially if you can't mention the original, use the same font, or even use purple in your advertising. It's made like 110 globally and that should have been the target all along.

In half my territories they were complaining about the print and refusing to run our spots. In the football thread goons who have young children were yelling at me because their kids were terrified and why were we running those during football games. I feel like it pissed people off more than it scared them.

That Apes film has two major positive things going for it:

- Apes talking a lot
- Apes in clothes

Otherwise, looks like it maintains the vibe of the previous trilogy, which is a great thing. I'm in.
