Considering that the movie is basically the world's most expensive trailer, I'm guessing the true measure of its success will come once Wonder Woman and especially The Justice League drop.

Yeah, I hear they joined up with the Shelter in Place organization and really got the Mudslinging going.

I dunno what to tell you. Hopefully one of those additional markets will be closer to you.

Anyway, the TV ad I just saw promised a broad expansion this Friday, so fingers crossed it's not an April Fool's joke.

I'm assuming Warner Bros. is simply retaliating against Jeff Nichols' powerful critics cabal who conspired this weekend to pan poor li'l B V S.

It's still not playing in Toronto. despite having seen trailers for it in front of literally every movie I've seen for the past two weeks. I am. So happy. *twitches*

Born February 1975, behind the Iron Curtain.

OK, you can stop now.

We must be, with you around.

Oh.

It definitely is mine. It's a quietly unsettling film, and beautiful in every way. Plus, it has my favorite David Bowie performance.

I think Jonathan helps him along in that area. Certainly, the scripts they wrote together are a lot more streamlined, like The Prestige.

I actually think he's very exposition-heavy, and sometimes awkwardly so. He's not a very good writer, but he can obscure that with good direction and great work with actors.

Oooh, I didn't see the edit. Seems that this one ends in a Hateful 8-level bloodbath.

Yes, absolutely.

But how else would those innocent bears protect themselves from a home invader?

See, it's the documentary fashion that I like. Since a lot of his work involves fantastical or science fiction elements, I like the very matter of fact manner in which he treats them. I think it's largely where his interest in practical effects comes from, too.
