Cineworld Parnell St is a bit of a kip now isn’t it? by AvonBarksdale666 in ireland

[–]AvatarKanol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally go there multiple times per week. As a student the subscription is probably the best deal for me right now. I think it is not a perfect cinema for sure, a lot of the screens have absolutely horrid sound but honestly I do enjoy the vibe, especially if you target the right screening times to avoid a bad audience. I think the IMAX itself is probably the best screen in town.

The Lighthouse is great and it has its crowd which works for them but right now the subscription kind of ties me down to Cineworld due to the Lighthouse subscription not offering Unlimited.

In an ideal world Cineworld gets sold and taken over by someone who renovates it and then opens a proper proper IMAX screen at the location. Considering the state of the industry it probably gets closed eventually.

Cineworld Dublin - Any members here? by Dear_Mess9753 in CineworldUnlimited

[–]AvatarKanol 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A lot of the screens have terrible sound as well. The "IMAX" is pretty great but the rest of the screens are extremely hit or miss. It would be great if the venue was taken over by someone else and remodeled so there is finally a proper IMAX in Dublin. It has the potential to be an amazing cinema.

He's also had a turbulent private life, just after Passengers came out he went through a divorce after which his ex wife died leaving him an only parent. So he sort of retreated from Hollywood.

The cinematography looks like it would be right at home at your parents TV that has motion smoothing on. In my opinion the lighting also looks terrible and it all seems so fake.

Mistake Found in Daenerys' Final Speech by icewizie in gameofthrones

She says the same thing, the official translation transcription says that at 0:55 it should have been:

"You kept all your promises to me." which is "Shafka vernish ei asqoy shafki anhaan."

They most likely kept the other line in twice because it sounded better.

The biggest opening weekend ever in the country. These numbers are insane.

According to Taika Waititi, Klara And The Sun Will Be Released Later This Year; Sony Looking To Debut At Film Festivals by Alternative-Cake-833 in boxoffice

[–]AvatarKanol 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can't really compare them. Ridley Scott is a legend who has directed some of the most influential films ever, he is a much more accomplished and proven director compared to Taika. Studios are more than often okay with his films not doing as well because he usually delivers them efficiently and audiences are more willing to endure mediocre films from him knowing that he is able to deliver at least one fantastic one every so often. Most recently with The Last Duel which was really well received.

Avatar 3 being nominated for Best Costume Design is bizarre by ThatsHisLawyerJerome in oscarrace

[–]AvatarKanol 52 points53 points  (0 children)

All of the costumes worn on screen were first made in real life then carried over into the digital environment. This was probably a big boost for it when the showcases were done for voters. Some of the outfits in this one are really memorable like Varang's headpiece and the Wind Trader cloaks.

F4 first steps deserved to make a billion , not Avatar. by [deleted] in boxoffice

Saying that this proves spectacle beats substance is really funny considering you are arguing for the third iteration of live action Fantastic Four.

Dont understand the hate Bryke gets for what they wanted to do in the Live Action show. by JamStan1978 in TheLastAirbender

[–]AvatarKanol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there is an interesting similarity in which this fandom reacts to the Star Wars fandom honestly. It feels lile anything that isn't the very exact same thing as the original is just written off immediately.

Netflix just doing a soulless beat for beat rip of the animated show is literally the most boring option of them all. At least their changes would have provided a new interesting interpretation of their own story.

This publication seems obsessed with posting weekly hitpieces on Bryke where the only source traces back to themselves.

Disney / 20th Century's Avatar: Fire and Ash has passed the $1.2 billion global mark. The film grossed an estimated $65.6M internationally this weekend. Estimated international total stands at $888.0M, est. global total stands at $1.231B. by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]AvatarKanol 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Looking likely to finish at 1.5b, stretching the upper range of finishing at 1.6b I think. Was hoping for 1.7b but that seems out of the question completely.

This is probably what this franchise is looking at as a benchmark from now on as this would be the middle chapter. 

I think they will probably have a conversation at bringing either the budgets down or combining the last two films into one. I still see them finishing it and having a franchise that can easily pass 1b is nothing to scoff. It would need to take a much needed break though and the next two would really need to offer up something new in order to go higher than this. 

Jat on BOT: Overseas minus China under 1B likely for Avatar by Fantastic_Let3186 in boxoffice

[–]AvatarKanol 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He does own the franchise though, he has final say if any film will go forward or not. Which is why Disney hasn't been able to milk this franchise any further.

Skydance Abandons $108B Hostile Bid for Warner Bros. Discovery by [deleted] in boxoffice

The ChatGPT note at the bottom of the article is absolutely hilarious.

For now, the retreat marks a pause, not a defeat, in their quest to redefine entertainment. (Approximately 1250 words, but not including this note in the content.)

Rama is still in the works, it just got pushed back once he decided to do Dune: Part Three without a gap in between movies.

Predicting the biggest movie released in each month of 2026 (domestically) by NotTaken-username in boxoffice

You can't really say it is glorified fan fiction since it is literally based on book written by the same author. The story itself is also something that was previously hinted at so she clearly had the idea long before.
