In that same vein, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Zelda would absolutely be a must-watchFancyKetchup14 said:
With all these Biopics coming out recently and more to come, is there anyone you'd love to see a really well done one about that hasn't been made?
I think a modern biopic about Ernest Hemingway's adult life would be fascinating. .
George Washington given the (Spielberg) Lincoln treatment would probably be epic He's a far more complex character than most Americans understand. Rick Atkinson's "The British Are Coming" would be excellent source material.FancyKetchup14 said:

This guy that works with my Dad at PEC that I mentioned has proof he was kin and is recognized by the Government. It's a neat story.maca1028 said:
My grandmother's maiden name was Parker and we were always told there was some relation. I believed it when I was a kid but not so sure now. There's a lot of Parker's out there.

Yep, it was a theater cam bootleg of a trailer for a horror/thriller called Longlegs. Which stars Maika Monroe as FBI Agent Lee Harker, who is "assigned to an unsolved serial killer case that takes unexpected turns, revealing evidence of the occult. Harker discovers a personal connection to the killer and must stop him before he strikes again."
It's just a really well-cut trailer, super creepy, and then at the end, even though there's no shot of him in the trailer (that I could tell), it says it stars Nicolas Cage as well, who I've since learned is, in fact, playing the serial killer.
Over the weekend Neon then released this short tease, so surely/hopefully the trailer itself isn't far behind...Every year there is another. pic.twitter.com/WbskWKPtat

EXCLUSIVE: CHRISTOPHER NOLAN and Warner Bros. REUNITE for re-release of TENET in support of DUNE 2...https://t.co/Gy0VK3fnn4
— Jeff Sneider (@TheInSneider) January 24, 2024
Quote:
In news that both is and is not what it appears to be, Christopher Nolan is back in business with Warner Bros., as the studio will re-release Tenet in theaters - including premium IMAX 70mm screens - for one week in support of Denis Villeneuve's Dune: Part Two.
Tenet will open on Friday, Feb. 23, and play for one week leading up to the March 1 release of Dune: Part Two, which is scheduled to play for at least two weeks on premium IMAX 70mm screens. I wouldn't be surprised if new footage from the Dune sequel debuted in front of Tenet, as WB is very bullish on the sequel, which has already begun screening for select press (i.e. not me).
I've held this story for two weeks but was asked not to post until after the Oscar nominations, as Nolan wanted to keep the focus on Universal's Oppenheimer, which led the way with 13 nods on Tuesday.
As for why both sides are doing this now, there are several reasons.
First and foremost, this is about Christopher Nolan stumping both for movie theaters and for his pal Denis Villeneuve, as these guys are making movies on a totally different scale than most directors outside of James Cameron.
Nolan is a big believer in the theatrical experience, and he knows that Villeneuve is as well. The two of them can relate to each other in several respects, as Villeneuve was forced into an uncomfortable position when Warners decided to release Dune: Part One simultaneously in U.S. theaters and on HBO Max.
The filmmakers have been very supportive of each other, as days after Dune's opening, Nolan sat down with Villeneuve to discuss the making of the film for an episode of the DGA's Director's Cut podcast following a screening at the guild.
I'm told that the idea to put Tenet back into theaters was actually Nolan's idea and that when he approached Warner Bros. executives with it, they were more than receptive.
Not only did they see the possible benefits for Dune: Part Two, but they know that Tenetgot screwed, and in more ways than one.
For starters, it was released at the height of the pandemic on Sept. 3, 2020, after opening in the UK a week earlier. Though it grossed $365 million worldwide, it took in just $58 million at the domestic box office - well below Nolan's average, though the state of moviegoing was obviously compromised. I mean, I saw the movie while wearing a raincoat and latex gloves due to (largely unnecessary) Covid concerns.
As a result of its unfortunate release date, there has long been a feeling that Tenet left some money on the table. Interstellar and Dunkirk, for example, grossed far less than Inception and Oppenheimer, but at $188 million and $189 million respectively, both more than tripled the domestic gross of Tenet, which was fed to the wolves and forced to fend for itself in a terrified marketplace.
This is a gesture on WB's part toward not only rectifying that box office wrong but doing right by Nolan's movie itself.
See, Tenet was meant to be seen on 70mm IMAX screens but it was robbed of that opportunity. Yes, the film has been screened in IMAX theaters, and yes, it has been presented in 70mm by the American Cinematheque, but I don't believe it was ever presented in 70mm IMAX. The projectionists who are capable of operating 70mm IMAX projectors were already booked for March 1, so I imagine their contracts have been extended a little longer, and that they'll now be asked to come in to work a week early.
But the most important reason this is happening, obviously, is because it's another opportunity for Warner Bros. to repair its relationship with Christopher Nolan, which is of the utmost priority to David Zaslav, who in recent weeks has lured both Tom Cruise and Leonardo DiCaprio back to the Burbank lot.
Now, just because Warner Bros. is re-releasing Tenet doesn't mean that Christopher Nolan has committed to making his next movie for the studio. Yeah, Warner Bros. wants to be in business with Nolan, but so does every studio. Right now, he remains a free agent.
And believe me, Donna Langley will do everything in her power to bring him back to Universal, which did a great job getting Oppenheimer to $952 million. The studio is also on the precipice of delivering Nolan the coveted Best Director Oscar that Warners never could.
But the fact that Nolan did post-production on Oppenheimer on the Warners lot, coupled with the re-release of Tenet, suggests that the studio has mended fences and Nolan is open to a return under the right circumstances.
Expect an official announcement on Thursday before Tenet tickets go on sale on Friday, Jan. 26.
Warner Bros. and a representative for Nolan had no comment.
