To add insult to injury, Red One wasn't even filmed for IMAX. In order for a movie to meet that qualification, it must be shot on an IMAX certified digital camera or shot on IMAX's 15 perforation 70mm film stock, 15/70 for short. The movie must also have scenes that are framed for either 1.43:1, 1.90:1, or both aspect ratios. Red One met none of those specifications. It was only optimized for IMAX, meaning they tweaked the picture and sound.

Had a boss with 45 years work experience, a Vice President at a large well known corporation and very well known internally as “the guy”. He got passed over 3 times for president of his branch in his career. Each time to the previous President’s frat brother. None of them familiar with the industry so I spent the better part of my time with each of them explaining THEIR job. They never did it either, always passing the buck with every task….It was literally a group of frat bros rotating a job that pays so well they can crash and burn for 2 years and still retire with a golden parachute. Meanwhile everyone else loses their jobs because the management was so shite. My boss left and so did anyone of quality within a year after him. They recently offered him an absurd package to go back and fix things. Ofc he still wouldn’t be president and he’d get about 1/3 of the pay of the president whose job he’s going back to do. Still enough to make any man’s mouth water. We are talking about millions for a few months work. And to think, its still a drop compared to to the CEO napping away in at home (you thought he’d bother going into the office? Lmao). You can make this shit up and I assure you it happens at the highest level of all industries. Old heads who think they can do no wrong because they are protected from their own mistakes.

​@jasmineflower1988 I mean, either way, it's always weird when Christmas stuff is released or put out before December. The only exception to me is putting up decorations because it's almost always a pain in the ass so the sooner done with it the better unless your doing it in October or sooner.

The only reason I'm somewhat curious to see Red One is J.K. Simmons as Santa.

In my opinion he did a much better job playing Santa in 'Klaus', because the character felt more grounded and believable in that movie while still distinctly Santa. In Red One, it just feels like J.K. Simmons is going through the motions and it doesn't feel like a heartfelt portrayal of the figure. HE DOESNT EVEN LOOK LIKE SANTA IN THIS MOVIE. IT LOOKS MORE LIKE J. JONAH JAMESON COSPLAYING AS SANTA CLAUS.

It was weirdly the same though for Beetlejuice opening week at Leicester in the UK. Huge cinema with only one row of seats with extra legroom. That one row was packed uncomfortably shoulder-to-shoulder but every other seat was empty. I think people just find it more comfortable at home nowadays. TV screens are huge, snacks are cheaper, and you can pause and go to the loo if you need to. Being in a cinema with other people used to feel exciting - a shared experience - but I think nowadays people prefer their own space more.

[@gabbief789]

Unlike red one Beetlejuice 2 did very well in the box office (think made around $450mil on a $100mil budget) so guess that answers that others definitely went to see it, but i think it depends when you see it or people not able to afford to go to the movies as much.

Just watched Red One. I came uncontrollably when the credits rolled. I'm talking convulsing, foaming at the mouth, pants soiled, I honestly think I blacked out for a second. Everybody around me was running in sheer terror and disgust. I just remember thinking "That movie was explosive, so explosive it makes me think of Hiroshima". I then immediately thought of Oppenheimer, and then thought of Cillian Murphy. It was at that moment, the floodgates opened. I can't believe I'm saying it, but I understand what the Rock means when he says he was inspired by Oppenheimer. That was some real talk. Before anybody asks, yes, I am now banned from all theaters in the city. I walked home, but not shamefully, for I felt only merriment, as my britches were brimming with pure Christmas spirit. In retrospect, perhaps I got a bit carried away. One thing is for sure, I will never forget this experience.

List of movies that instantly puts Red One in the gutters in terms of Story, Film technology and Cinematography techniques 1. Dune Part 2 - They continued the arguably most unadapatable story in the history of fiction on screen, has also advanced the film industry to a whole another level, by using unorthodox film techniques, especially with the blending of practicalfx and vfx. Also visually Dune part 2 reaches the “Every frame is a painting” level 2. Deadpool & Wolverine - Has beaten out the spiderman fanchise and every other super hero franchise in terms of fan service, delivering one off if not the best cameos in super hero film history. 3. Furiosa - This is one of the most anticipated storyline/spinoff that has ever come out on a one off movie from almost a decade ago, and it didn’t push back. 4. The Substance - The most innovative and creative modern horror that has ever came out since the pandemic. No shock value and engineered jumpscare, just horror 5. Bad Boys: Ride or die - an action comedy film that doesn’t hold back, and used witty camera techniques that has never seen before on screen, plus the action just escalated 6. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes - The spinoff that we never anticipated, but glad that they did 7. Civil War - The closest box office hit by A24 studios, serves one of the best thrills this year 8 A Quiet Place: Day one - A film that answers one of the most FAQs in terms of storylines on a horror franchise. These are films I watched this year and can think off that is really good in a span of 5 minutes. There’s probably more but I just can’t remember.
