I guess you're probably being sarcastic. Regardless. 91 minutes might be the films runtime before credits. And if not I doubt the credits will be anywhere close to 11 minutes.

Ah, thanks. $20 to rent, $25 to own.

So I need to decide now if I want to burn $25 of my $40 Google Rewards credits (which makes the most sense money-wise), or spent $25 of new money on Vudu (which is where nearly all of my digital stuff is).... if this ends up being a MA title it won't matter because it'll port everywhere, but I don't know if that's going to be the case or not.

It's an MGM release so definitely not MA title

Yeah... okay. So I need to decide which platform to trap this on forever.

While it doesn't have an actual date, the website indicates they're ready to open. I'm curious about their new menu.

You guys that have already decided that this will suck because of a short runtime, you must hate all the movies:

Excellent Adventure: 91min.
Bogus Journey: 94 min.
Face the Music: 92 min

Vudu is offering a $3 credit if you preorder the movie through them.

Not at all. I had initially thought it was going to suck when the posted "official" running time was 78 minutes. IMDB and other official sources said it was 78 minutes. As it stands now, it has a chance of not sucking.

^^

I'm hoping the soundtrack for this is as fun and memorable as they are for the first 2 movies! They're still a lot of fun to listen to decades later.

13 sounds like the title of a Sufjan Stevens song.

This is my most anticipated movie right now. You'd think it would be Tenet. But it's really this.

Would be an odd business move for movie theaters to not want to show a new movie.

Maybe, but maybe it just encourages VOD rentals instead. 'Why pay $20 to go to a movie theater to see this new movie and maybe get exposed to COVID when we can stay home and watch it here for the same price?'.

Re: Bill & Ted Face the Music (2020, D: Parisot) S: Keanu Reeves, Alex Winter

I've been chatting with the local Drive-in owner. They're showing the Russell Crowe film Unhinged through Wednesday, haven't made a decision about next week yet but should very soon. They're the only game in town right now and margins are razor thin so he needs to be certain that he can show B&T at the current $7 adult, $5 student, $3 child prices (plus concessions) and come out even or in the black. He says he'll decide between that and New Mutants in the next day or so.

I've already bought the film on Google Play, but would love to see it on the big screen too.

Ours rented out a giant field and is doing it for a somewhat steep $24/car (for Bill and Ted), I may go support them if I get the chance.

And then they're opening their theater doors for Tenet on Monday.

Spoiler:





$24 per car is for one movie or for a double feature? Our local drive in is right in line with that if you have two adults, and yours is cheaper if you have more than that. They charge per person, not per car. $12 for adults and $5 for kids, but it's always a double feature for that price. That's what we will likely do for New Mutants or Bill and Ted this weekend (or if we get lucky, both, but I doubt that they would pair 2 new releases together. Typically each new release is paired with an older film, to sell more tickets).

Nope, single movie, but you can pack the car. So yours probably ultimately comes out ahead.

Jackpot!

My drive in is showing B&T3 but only for 2 nights, Friday and Sunday. Saturday is the Metallica concert and the theater goes dark starting Monday for maintenance.

Friday $9 ea (double feature w/Unhinged)
Sunday $7 ea (single feature)

I'm there!

I live in St. Louis, and I was surprised to see only one theater is scheduled to show this. Right now it's not in the two suburban chains, -AMC and Marcus, -and only at one city location.
