I really don’t care anymore … when a new movie is announced, I really don’t care to do anything special to go out and see it. I just forget about it and wait a year or two and watch it as a stream on one of the services I already pay for.
It usually works out. If the movie was crap, everyone will tell me, I’ll read about it or see low review scores for and just never bother watching it ever … or it’s released on Netflix, Disney or Amazon and I watch it there a year or two later.
If it has great reviews and not available anywhere, then I just wait a year and rent it for $5 and watch it at home.
There’s more than enough content to last a lifetime, I’m not spending any more money to watch the latest greatest movie as soon as it comes out.
Yep. Being a patient consumer is the way.
Oh lord. This did not need to be a two parter. Man, I miss movies being well contained 90 minute stories.
The whole Broadway show can be done in a 2 hour-ish performance live, there is no justification to stretch this to two movies other than corporate greed milking every IP to the limit
I don’t know, I thought the Broadway show was missing an interspecies love triangle.
And maybe a long scene with barrels.
Because it was Reeeeeel!
From everything I’ve seen so far about Wicked the movie(s), yes that’s exactly what it is.
The show is still touring folks, go see the show if you can
I’m starting to suspect that this is why I don’t watch as many films as I’d like to. They’ve all become such a time commitment. Show me what you can do with an hour and a half!
Deathly Hallows
This did have PART 1 early in reveal but then realized people wouldn’t see it so they lied about this being a complete movie. Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning did the same thing
People aren’t going to see a movie that lies about it being a part 1 either, at least not after the first weekend when the word gets out
I pretty sure it was public knowledge (even talked about in publicity) Dead Reckoning was two parts.
I was surprised when Dune did it, not sure why they hid it.
