I agree. I love A24 for the independent movies. Movies that would’ve never gotten a chance anywhere else.
At the very least, it could tarnish the A24 brand and end up like Blumhouse, producing these “legacy sequels” to movies that didn’t really need a (another) sequel to begin with.
I had no idea this was a thing. So say someone has the proof document of an out-of-print book, could that person go to some company who could reprint the book for the person to be in their personal collection?
I’m curious if this will sour the partnership between Blumhouse and Universal. The Halloween sequels didn’t do as good as 2018’s Halloween, and now this new Exorcist legacy sequel not meeting box office expectations.
For a dead franchise like The Exorcist? Yup. But Universal also gets rights to use in theme parks and streaming, so they MIGHT make their money back.
That’s why you hear it’s a big gamble for this new trilogy of Exorcist movies.
How does the company stay afloat when they’re constantly replacing satellites? The money, the logistics, and most of all, the materials. What a waste.
I'd love to extend the life of the Asus laptop, give it a new battery and install a better OS. But she'll have to deal with the weight & bulkiness, especially going on trips. Need something more practical where she can take it wherever like a coffee shop or on a vacation trip.
Chromebook might a good idea. I've also thought about an iPad with the keyboard cover. Both are very practical.
One thing that really bothers me is Instagram “hearing” conversations. I swear the app is listening in, even with the microphone being disabled for the app. My wife & I would talk about a certain product or restaurant and sure enough, we see ads for it on Instagram the next time we’re on it. Very disturbing.
Totally agree. They made a lot of epic sounding trailer music. Their "Freedom Fighters" track for the Star Trek (2009) trailer still gives me goosebumps. Well fitting.
Wasn’t there issues during production of this movie? I love Eli Roth’s work, but honestly, he’s not the director I would’ve picked for a Borderlands movie.
It was a stand-alone disc, mail-in offer for those who bought the PS2 Network Adapter during the launch period.
I have a 7.1 home theatre setup with a 4K 55” hooked up to AppleTV.
I use the Infuse app. They have a free trial version in the App Store. Tried it, the setup was easy for me and the player did exactly what I wanted: play media files from a local network drive. Supports a wide range of encodes, audio codecs, 1080p, 2160p, HDR, and so forth. I bought the lifetime subscription after that, which is good for all future versions including the big updates.
For setup, I have a small PC with 2 x 5TB HDDs shared through my local network. Both the PC and the AppleTV are connected via Ethernet (no wireless or you might experience playback issues from time to time)
My wife and I were planning our wedding. Everything was paid from our own pockets. No help from parents or family. It wasn’t like they weren’t there, just wanted to do it ourselves since it’s our wedding.
By the time we’ve booked the venue, catering, photographer, budgeting clothing & decorations, we had no money to hire a DJ. And if we did, we didn’t want some “Top 40” DJ (we’re from the alternative subculture)
I rented some audio equipment, hooked it up to my MacBook, and used iTunes as the DJ. I’ve made a few playlists based on the wedding’s schedule. One playlist for the dinner, one playlist for the “walking down the aisle” moment, one playlist for dancing/post-ceremony. Having the playlists allows me to “play and forget” I’ve had certain songs setup at the end of the playlists in case we’ve overran a certain wedding function and I’ll know the playlist is near the end (most of the playlists were loaded with hours of songs so I wouldn’t have to worry) The walking down the aisle song was on it’s own playlist with the length trimmed down to how long it would take my wife to walk down the aisle (the song would just fade out & nothing else would be playing) It worked out pretty well, with me changing the playlist a few times. All MacBook sounds were turned off and Do Not Disturb was on to avoid unwanted notifications. It was connected to a public wifi (provided by my ISP) if I needed to do any remote controlling or downloading additional songs.
