The Guest

Ugh… sor tired of thiiiiiiis.

So the theaters in several cities were run by a franchisee. They suddenly without any warning declared bankruptcy and closed all the theaters they managed in all cities and fired all their employees. The corporate entity that is Alamo Drafthouse (I didn’t even know these were franchises) has stated that they are working to reopen in the closed cities, but at this point it’s lip service. They seem to indicate that they also didn’t know the franchisee was going to take this action, so to some degree it seems like they were blindsided as well. I have become so accustomed to the superior experience at the drafthouse I am having a hard time trying to convince myself to start seeing movies in other theaters (not to mention, their theaters were pretty much the closest to me any way so going somewhere else means driving further for a worse experience). Sigh. This all happened before Sony bought the corporate entity so there are a LOT of unknowns.

I am COMPLETELY with you in principle, but am willing to hold that thought until we see something. I would be fine with a Spiderverse/TMNT:Mutant Mayhem art style. But yeah not ideal initially.

Yeah, this was devastating to me as I am in DFW area and I literally haven’t seen a movie in another theater chain in almost a decade.

Yes testing is such a big problem for those coders.

After the extreme fails of the more recent mergers… ESPECIALLY Warner/Discovery, I just can’t stand the thought of even more conglomeration and the inevitable losses that will likely follow.

I am so here for this.

That would be excellent. Thank you for your contributions!

Why do you feel that you wouldn’t qualify?

I like this idea. Your contribution would be appreciated.

IT was off topic and this isn’t a normal post.

Jenny’s videos are awesome. This one is 4 hours long and I’m about half way through, but it is excellent.

His movies are BONKERS you should watch them.

I would say so, yes. It’s definitely its own thing, but I was reminded of Jennifer’s Body plenty of times while watching It.

Got some good conversation going on American Fiction. Also enjoyed talking about Lisa Frankenstein.

That very stable genius energy right there.

Usually I can detect the missing /s… but my /s detector is too confused by this one.

If the work is getting done, who the hell cares?

And record profits implies the work is getting done.

Please also list the reasons for rejection. I am sure every one of these offerings were 100% reasonable and Palestine just loves being subjegated.
