[Paul Muad’Dib @trygraptor]

no it’s okay sir i know this 70mm showtime of The Odyssey is sold out, i just have to deliver this very large horse-shaped package to someone inside

[Blake Rizzo 💫 @RizzoBlake]

@JonLampel Love this.

Can you possibly see I Love Boosters on Sunday instead of Monday?

On Monday theaters will be making decisions about what to keep on screens based on what happened on the weekend

In early 1980, John Williams watched the final cut of THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK before recording the score.

• He wrote the entire score in 7 weeks
• All the music was recorded in 9 days
• 124 minutes of original score for the film

[Guillermo del Toro @RealGDT]

Its a glorious bet- to out-dozen Stanley Donen's color schemes!

[Boots Riley @BootsRiley]

YES- u need 2 see I Love Boosters IN THE THEATER now cuz we've made a movie where huge swaths of color, camera mvmnt, textures, rhythm of cutting, and action on screen extremely affect u when stretched to your peripheral vision. And u need to b in a crowd while ur all cracking up

@hyphy_republic There are many ways to fail. I have much to accomplish artistically.

In that context, me in particular (not talking about anyone else) doing an MCU reboot would feel like failing, w money tho.

I'd rather fail while doing my own shit.

I Love Boosters is in theaters now!

[Boots Riley @BootsRiley]

I also MAKE movies like my life depends on it.

On an indie promo budget on Memorial Day Weekend in competition w 10 other films,

& w 50%-250% less screens & WAY less showtimes than everyone that made more-

we made almost $5M.
We're not done

I Love Boosters- in theaters now!

[Boots Riley @BootsRiley]

They got me. They blocked me from doing too many posts and quote tweets per day without being verified-

So it was stopping me from promoting. Only allowing me to retweet. So now I'm temporarily verified.

I Love Boosters is in theaters now!

[Boots Riley @BootsRiley]

We worked with @Panavision to talk about I Love Boosters, the process of getting the big, bold, colors, and why it HAS to be seen on a big screen.

[Blake Rizzo 💫 @RizzoBlake]

@MortazaviiiReza Would love to see that transparent plastic shader. Looks so good!!!

So… pretty much impossible to find a job at 56 years old in an industry that collapsed 18 months ago. I’m available for freelance. Bring it on! https://t.co/NTbEX0J7vE

Correspondent Scott Pelley and director Christopher Nolan visited Fotokem, the last motion picture lab in the world that makes 70mm prints, to see finishing touches being made to "The Odyssey," the first feature shot entirely on IMAX film. https://t.co/LyM8UU5ajP

here's a monitor breakdown from @mattreevesLA behind the scenes shots.

this should help you better understand what's going on next time you see a field monitor like this.
