70mm features for the week leading up to OPPENHEIMER continue to arrive.
I'm running out of booth-space to stash them all.

(and there's still 9 more cases to come when O-HEIMER gets here)

What titles?Comment

So far, "Lifeforce", "The Last Boy Scout" & "Tenet" I think I'm expecting one more
, in addition to OPPENHEIMER. "Lifeforce" & "Last BS" are original release prints,
with magnetic sound tracks.
I've been telling my friends: "If you want to see films in France, go to Cannes ~
but if you want to see films in cans, come here"

Of all theaters in the Denver area, I can't believe the AMC Westminster 24 still has their 70mm projector as they're showing Oppenheimer n the format.
Surprisingly enough, some people must actually know as the house is actually pretty well presold (as is the laser IMAX digital screen.)Comment

I read in the news a couple days ago that people were getting up and walking out because some of it is way too intense and or chilling for them to watch...Comment

Preview screenings? Are there people who don't know how it ended? It wouldn't surprise me considering how little history most people know. Having said that, there have been very well done films where we know the ending and they were still able to create incredible tension and drama. One great example was "All The President's Men".Comment

I highly recommend reading the book "The Making Of The Atomic Bomb", which won a pulitzer prize, before you see the movie. There is no way that Nolan could cram all the actual players into this movie. People pursuing splitting the atom goes back to the early 1920's. There is also "The Atomic Bomb Movie" as well which has been recently up-rezed to 4K. But it's a mesmerizing film with interviews of many of the now deceased physicists who worked on the project, and the still living physicists.
As far as people knowing the actual history goes, I graduated HS in 1972 and it was only a mention in an educational film we saw in history class back then. Schools today are almost worthless...Comment

Right now, 'TRON' isn't on my "list" - - but believe it or not, I'm often the last person to know about
these things. Sometimes the customers seem to find out about our advanced schedule before I do.
I did just learn that they're planning another round of 70mm screenings in September, after I get back
from The Telluride FIlm Festival. (assuming I still have a job. There are currently some labor issues
going on within the company I work for that may result in the replacement of all current projectionists.
The issue is now in the hands of lawyers at the moment, so beyond that I can't say anything more)Comment

These are all at the New Mission Theater in San Francisco
