Movie Theater Chain Tests Higher Prices For Middle Section Seats

Movie Theater Chain Tests Higher Prices For Middle Section Seats By Peter Sciretta/May 16, 2014 12:00 pm EST One major movie theater chain plans to begin testing a surcharge on middle seats in their movie theaters. Would you pay more for premium seating at the multiplex? I use to be super obsessive about sitting in the most perfect seat in the movie theater. Before the days of online ticketing, I would make my friends wait in line for the Friday night showings just so that we could have dibs on the perfect seats in the perfect rows of whichever auditorium that week’s big release was screening....

San Diego Comic-Con Friday Schedule Highlights Include ‘The Amazing Spider-Man,’ ‘The Adventures Of Tintin’ By Germain Lussier/July 8, 2011 12:30 pm EST Though The Avengers, Batman and Superman are more than likely not going to be swinging into San Diego Comic-Con this year, Spider-Man will be out in force.

Watchmen Test Screening In Portland And New Footage At Scream 2008

Watchmen: Test Screening In Portland And New Footage At Scream 2008 By Peter Sciretta/Oct. 15, 2008 2:12 am EST Collider is reporting that Warner Bros is doing a test screening of Watchmen at the Regal Lloyd Center 10 Theater in Portland Oregon this Thursday, October 16th at 7:00pm. Apparently this is a “blind screening” so they are recruiting people who don’t know anything about the comic book world. So if you run into one of the recruiters, play dumb, and pretend to like Wild Hogs and Beverly Hills Chihuahua...

What A Tron Legacy Failure Would Prove

What A ‘TRON: Legacy’ Failure Would Prove By David Chen/Dec. 3, 2010 1:56 pm EST The other day, we discussed the fact that TRON: Legacy was tracking below expectations and that it could earn as low as $35 million during its opening weekend (in line with that, HitFix delivered a devastating review to the film this morning). Such an event would be a box office catastrophe that would consign Legacy to the same category of flops such as Ishtar, The Postman or the more recent Speed Racer....

The purple galactic warlord has sown death and destruction across the universe, though, apart from a brief role in Guardians of the Galaxy, it’s been mostly offscreen....

Billy Lynn S Long Halftime Walk Early Buzz 120 Fps Ruins An Average War Drama

‘Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk’ Early Buzz: 120 FPS Ruins An Average War Drama By Ethan Anderton/Oct. 15, 2016 11:00 am EST Last night brought the world premiere of Ang Lee’s latest film, Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk. Yesterday we happened to run a featurette exploring director Ang Lee’s use of new technology that allowed the film to be shot at 120 frames per second (FPS). That’s a significantly higher frame rate than Peter Jackson’s experimental use of 48 FPS for The Hobbit trilogy, and it sounds like the reaction to this format from the first reviews of the movie is even more resistant than to that previous effort....

The only thing I am sure about is that it takes too long to get to the rampaging. Rampaging is, after all, the number one thing that Rampage has going for it — exposition and set-up aren’t exactly the draw of a movie like this....
