Let us know what you think. Definitely a mystery.

Read Shia LaBeouf was going to be in it but due to allegations of abusive behavior, was replaced by Harry Styles.

Jelly!!! I was searching around on Cinema app, still no feeds. Turned to watching extended previews on YT.

Found related an interesting movie vs book comparison. Yep, I think I still understand the premise. It is nice to here some of the names pronounced, they didn't always match my mind pronunciation wile reading.

This looks absolutely BONKERS!
I will definitely watch...

Peter Cushing and Roy Hudd stars with some good 'ol British humour.

Nice, I'm jealous! Best I could do was noon on Friday as my nearest IMAX is ~1.5 hours away.

I'm also seeing it on Saturday in a normal theater with my wife lol

I'm up skiing this week and the mountain was closed today due to wind. We had the afternoon so my son and I had a nice lunch and when to see the latest offering by Ethan Coen. It's called Drive-Away Dolls.

This movie gets horrible reviews by most everybody, critics and general public alike.

My son love some Coen movies (Big Lebowski) and hates others (Fargo). I'm exactly the opposite. Fargo is one of my favorites. So, we were both interested to see how we would like this low-rated movie.

We both loved Drive-Away Dolls. The two main characters were great together.

If you like the Coen Brothers, this movie may entertain you. Be warned: It's not for everybody.

Going on Sunday with a buddy and his kid (who's sort of my honorary nephew).

I wasn't all that into the first part, so hopefully the second part will be better.

I've always preferred books to movies and Dune has always been one of my all-time favorites (although the next two in the trilogy get a little weird)-- I've literally worn out a few copies of Dune and still re-read it every year or two. I've always found that my imagination and the additional depth and detail provided by a book made for a better experience than that on the screen. I've felt that way about The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings (both the rotoscoped version and the Jackson Version), The Lathe of Heaven, A Wrinkle in Time, The Right Stuff, Master & Commander, etc.)

That being said, I'm looking forward to seeing it. It'll be interesting if nothing else.

But the previews, even if I had never read Dune as many times as I have, just seems astounding to me. This is definitely a big-screen movie! I don't imagine I'm going to need subtitles in the XD theatre!!!! I'll re-watch at home if I want to critique the dialogue in comparison to the book.

No good torrents for Godzilla Minus One yet?

Bright - Meh, it was something to watch. If fairies, orcs, elves, magic wands and Will Smith aren't your thing, I'd pass.

In cue but wasn't in the right mind set to watch:
They Will Not Grow Old
The First Man

oh Bird Box omg that is amazing you remebrd me on this. well now i know what im watching in the evening

In preparation of Smile's release, Paramount hired "smilers" to show up at random public places, like the Today Show and a Yankees v. Red Sox game, and deliver their most haunting smirk....

Genius marketing!

My Boy and I are off to see it in the morning, can’t wait!

Reporting in first?

Immense cinematography! XD sound was amazing. First half of movie was pretty true to book, second they deviated a bit. Probably as much time management as anything else.

Definitely will see again!

Part 3 in 2025?
