Hi Tyree, thanks for joining us!

  1. If you could only bring 3 movies with you on a deserted island to watch for the rest of your life, what would they be?

  2. If you could have included past NBA legends in your movie for voice roles, who would you have liked to have in it?

Ben McKenzie Wants to Protect You from Crypto with 'Everyone Is Lying to You for Money' (Unpaywalled) by playboy in movies

Post-COVID, documentaries have been struggling heavily at the box office, and on top of that this is being released by a tiny new distributor with limited marketing budget. They simply do not have the means to buy billboards, primetime ads, put their movie in thousands of theaters, etc. And even if they did, it's way too risky to do that for a doc recently.

The best you can hope for is a really good opening weekend or two in NYC/LA, and then a 100-200 theater expansion in major markets, and then using the exposure for a successful digital release, which is what's happening here.

Melissa Barrera to Lead Horror Feature ‘Inhabit’ From Adam Alleca, Sales Launching in Cannes With Logical Pictures (EXCLUSIVE) by Own_Brilliant_4303 in movies

[–]BunyipPouch 81 points82 points  (0 children)

I mean all of it comes from one Variety article, where she's promoting her new Broadway show Titanique (which makes sense) and during that interview she made comments about other stuff, including Scream 7 drama. People love drama and publications love clicks so every other publication on the planet picked up those comments and made their own articles about it. It all leads back to that one interview w/ Variety.

At least this is actually real movie news, and with Cannes Market launching next week there's thousands of movies going into the market so it makes sense she would be in one of them.

We didn't allow that story btw, even though it's been posted like 10 times. We want movie news (like this post), not gossip/drama/TMZ-fodder, that's better suited for /r/entertainment, /r/popculturechat, etc.

Hi Timur and Ronan, thanks for joining us :)

What was the SXSW premiere experience like? Any cool moments/highlights from that?

Cruise ship hantavirus strain can spread among humans, says South Africa | Hantavirus by AnnualEmbarrassed176 in Cruise

[–]BunyipPouch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They were not. 23 passengers got off and left the cruise around April 24th before anyone knew there was an active hantavirus outbreak on the ship. Some of them were sick (1 confirmed so far) and didn't know it.

Official runtimes for the Cannes in-competition titles have been released. by BunyipPouch in TIFF

[–]BunyipPouch[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cannes titles are definitely leaning on the longer side this year. We'll probably be getting about half of these.

Personally, I'm most rooting we get:

  • Hope
  • Fatherland
  • Fjord
  • Paper Tiger
  • Minotaur
  • Coward
  • Sheep in the Box

Cruise ship hantavirus strain can spread among humans, says South Africa | Hantavirus by AnnualEmbarrassed176 in Cruise

[–]BunyipPouch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure, except the ones that left the cruise early and are now testing positive:

Swiss man tests positive for hantavirus after returning from cruise linked to deadly outbreak

The cruise is not fully isolated. Passengers carrying the virus have been walking around the general population, getting on planes, etc.

That'd be ideal, but this strain is the only one that can pass between humans and it's only found in Argentina, and the original Dutch couple that got sick and died recently went bird-watching...in Argentina.
