genuinely believe @AMCTheatres (and any other chain) is leaving an insane amount of money on the table by not having a working 70MM IMAX set up within the city limits
RIP Sam Neill.
Back in 2023, Temuera Morrison alongside fellow New Zealand actors Sam Neill and Karl Urban, in a post shared back then on Karl's Instagram: "[Dining] with distinguished dinosaur attack survivor & a simple man just trying to make his way in the universe."
George Lucas explains that “the audience doesn’t know what they want to see” in a new interview.
“If they don’t like a character, that’s interesting, and as a filmmaker I want to find out why. But when the studios hear that, they take the wrong message. They let the audience actually make the movie. Of course, now they go crazy with that. Now, it’s all about what the fans think. That isn’t how you make the movie. You make a movie by finding someone that knows how to make movies, that has a story to tell and is passionate about it.”

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.
ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
The Odyssey in IMAX 70MM is basically sold out for the next six week straight in NYC. This movie is going to make billions. It’s also very annoying because now I have to sit in the front row if I want a ticket
FYI for THE ODYSSEY IMAX 70mm SCREENINGS
ARRIVE ON TIME!
THERE WILL NOT BE ANY PRE-SHOW, COMMERCIALS OR TRAILERS.
THE MOVIE WILL BEGIN AT THE TIME ON YOUR TICKET.
DON'T BE LATE!
Sam - you were more than just a lovely actor to work with - refined, thoughtful, a skill second to none - you were a mentor, protector, and above all, friend. Thank you for making our scenes together feel so real. I will be forever grateful to have been on this journey with you.
Mayor Mamdani says he's "currently subscribed to something I don't even have my login for, but they have my credit card information, and I don't know how to cancel it." Pressed what it is, he says "it's a publication, and I'll leave it at that." 👀
“Would you rather time travel to the future or to the past?”
Tom: Do you think you could do better things for humanity going forwards or backwards?
Rob: I’ve actually made a movie about this.
