[lewisjwr ☆★ @lewisjwr]

“One of the oldest film studios in Hollywood either has a fundamental misunderstanding of their craft, or they consciously reject film as art and view films solely as business commodities.” #WarnerBrosDiscovery #HBOMax

Film is art, not business.

[Manchester Film Critics Association @MCRFilmCritics]

Tickets for @SonyPicturesUK's #Morbius are now on sale.

Fun fact: parts of this film were shot in Manchester! 🐝

[Manchester Film Critics Association @MCRFilmCritics]

One thing that the Manchester Film Critics Association wants to do is get consistent press screenings up here in Manchester. For some, it's financially crippling to travel to London just to cover the release of a film. It can clearly be set up and we want to make that extra push.

NEW FILM REVIEW 🚨

"Riddler is an influencer of the worst kind."

From @WarnerBrosUK, @TheBatman is out now in cinemas.
