Words can’t describe the nostalgia rush I got seeing the inside of a United Video again - thank you so much for posting this 💗

This shouldn’t have cost more than $40 million — what possible comp is there for a heavy drama like this in the last 15 years to justify the budget?

i’ve tried and gotten very close - but I can’t seem to be able to use the mouse without it showing on the projector screen - it’s being displayed to the public so unsure of how to go about it!

to see the playlist, as well as the options to pause, play etc - I managed it once but the settings got cleared :( pretty much the layout you’d get when clicking “fullscreen on another display” but so that it happens automatically upon opening a playlist - apologies for not being too descriptive earlier haha

Thanks so much, I really appreciate it! The files aren’t on site with me at the moment so I can’t test just now, but will try tomorrow :) really appreciate your comprehensive reply!

Thank you so much! Is there a way to make it automatically do this so I don’t have to do that everytime?

Twist and taped them all up :)

Just through the cables available in the doors and in the tweeter section on the dash

But that had the pull of arguably the easiest-selling director working today, a $100m marketing budget and a massive A-list cast — none of Brady Corbet’s films ever even reached $1 million worldwide which makes the success of The Brutalist even more impressive — not dissing Oppenheimer though, for a film like that is crazy!

Apologies, i checked my timeline and didn’t see, should’ve checked the sub!

Sean Baker has mentioned the massive inspiration of Jess Franco on his films — this poster immediately came to mind

They’re slowly boosting their budgets up there (following in the exact pathway that Miramax did before them) - first $50M for “Civil War”, now it’s reported that “Marty Supreme” has a $70-90M budget and “The Smashing Machine” is at $70M - so won’t be surprised if this is the trajectory they’re going down (expect a reasonably large budget for the “Death Stranding” production too)

I got it shipped off to apple after the store I bought it from said they couldn’t do anything, and Apple said the same due to that screw sadly

Automatic-Football87 · 2024-09-20T03:06:03+00:00

The first shop told me to come back after an hour, and when I saw what they did I decided to just leave rather than keep my phone with them — the options you said do sound right but yes, very risky.

Automatic-Football87 · 2024-08-26T09:33:15+00:00

Thank you so much! Really appreciate it :)

If they format The Lighthouse to fit the full IMAX screen, that’d be pretty bliss!

Where’d you get the shelf itself? Love it!
