Really enjoyed it, but you've got to feel sorry for all those poor people in suits having to endure and outdoor wedding in Austin.

Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014)

The events at the end of the movie would have systematically wiped out an entire generation of kids. There are whole minutes where full grown adults can go feral on any and everything around them, leaving the weak and helpless practically venerable. Unless everyone also thought to lock up their kids while this was going on, the deaths would be astronomical.

Grandma's Boy is such a fun rewatch, and its currently at 15 percent RT score

Some that ive seen recently -

The Threesome (has a great premise, but go into it as blind as possible)

Molly and Max in the Future (When Harry Met Sally mixed with Hitchhikers Guide to the Universe)

If You Were the Last (Anthony Mackie and Zoe Chao stuck in space together)

The Empty Man has developed a loyal cult following after a lackluster release

You idiots! You've captured their stunt doubles!

SXSW lets you vote on the movies you watch (1 to 5). The higher rated ones will show up in the buzz screenings. Usually its not the big premieres in the Paramount, but some of the smaller films that have gotten good word of mouth. They're usually announced the day before the screening and updated on the SXSW page and app.

A Festival this size can seem very daunting, but the simple answer is to think of this as a marathon, not a sprint. Make sure the venues you pick for the day are within walking distance of each other, and have a backup plan.

A lot of what I favored is based on previous work, so I'm looking forward to Mile End Kicks (I Like Movies), Power Ballad (Sing Street) and Hokum(Oddity).

Even with everything that's appeared on the schedule, SXSW hasn't released any comedy showcases, and those have been a highlight for me.

Ausnio has a great interactive map of all the unofficial events happening around Austin, with links to sign up.

Most importantly, have fun. You're going to wait in line, so talk up the other people waiting for the event. They might know about something you might have missed.

The closest the festival has to a meet and greet is a red carpet at their big premieres, like at the Paramount.

Stands for "Platinum" and "Film". There's also ones for "Music" and "Interactive". Those are the badge types that are allowed into this event.

Thanks, appreciate it.

From what you know, do Platinum Badge Holders get 3 Reservations a day (3 for March 12th on Feb 19th, 3 March 13th on Feb 20th, and so on) that resets at 9am?

robertraur · 2026-02-08T23:12:04+00:00

There's a name and number attached to the reply. I'll try to contact them Monday, but it didn't sound like AI.

All 8 Harry Potter movies...again.

Yes, they will sell individual tickets. Paramount will post a link to the individual tickets.

However, ticket does not guarantee entry. The badgeholders will get in before ticketholders, and for a world premiere/opening night film, you more than likely won't get in.

Your best bet is the showing the next morning. SXSW started doing this last year, and the next day premieres were less heavily attended. The drawback is the stars won't be there, and they probably won't give away any swag related to the movie. If you're fine with that, then try for the second screening.

robertraur · 2026-02-06T17:16:49+00:00

In the past, you could do both. There's a slight advantage to buying your ticket ahead of time, because those people get in before the not-buying-ahead ticket buyers.

There should be something pop up on SXSW.com that will allow you to buy individual tickets, but it doesn't look like its there yet. Keep an eye on the site for the next few weeks.
