Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 10-18-2015 01:42 PM                     I'm hoping Brad Miller and his crew get to run The Hateful Eight in 5/70mm like they did with three prints of Interstellar in the Dallas area last year. I'm hoping LOOK Cinemas gets a print. Of course some of this depends on how Star Wars gets booked. quote: James Westbrook Looks like digital presentation for me, then. Balls. DFW is kind of a long haul from Lubbock (over 300 miles each way), but that would be better than nothing.  |  IP: Logged James Westbrook Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1133 From: Lubbock, Texas, Usa Registered: Mar 2006 posted 10-18-2015 02:17 PM                     I get astounded by people driving from Midland Odessa to see certain Fathom events, or Amarillo to see Indian movies.  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 10-18-2015 02:19 PM                        Interesting that the only confirmed venues so far appear to be overseas ones that already play 5/70 regularly.  |  IP: Logged Fabian Schreyer Film Handler Posts: 63 From: Aachen, Germany Registered: Feb 2009 posted 10-18-2015 09:16 PM                     The Schauburg cinema in Karlsruhe (Germany) announced the film to be shown starting January 28th.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 10-18-2015 09:57 PM                     I believe LOOK Cinemas is already confirmed, but I need to absolutely verify that before you go to buy advance tickets. I had them already setup for Ultra Panavision with the 1.25x anamorphic, so it's a complete no-brainer for Weinstein at that site. Just ship the print and that's all is needed. For those that have been to the revised auditorium at LOOK last year for Interstellar (or for a digital movie afterwards), the screen is something like 65 feet wide and is side masking. In scope (2.40:1) the very bottom edge of the image can just slightly have a head in the bottom of the image from the guy sitting in front of you even with the stadium seating due to the size of the screen. With Ultra Panavision 70mm (2.76:1) we will bring up the bottom masking just slightly to perfectly achieve the ratio. At that point the room shape is truly perfect for this movie. I don't think any other theater in the area could provide a better presentation. Most screens are smaller, probably just about all of them won't update their masking for this film, and who knows how many will have those godawful silver screens thanks to 3D. The couple of screens that are just slightly larger don't have masking or the motorized masking has been disabled, so forget that nonsense.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan."

I'll gladly support any theater within reasonable distance that can show 70mm properly. I'll probably even make the 200 mile drive each way even if The Hateful Eight turns out to be a dialog-heavy turd.  |  IP: Logged Thomas Hauerslev Master Film Handler Posts: 451 From: Copenhagen, Denmark Registered: Aug 2000 posted 10-19-2015 12:23 AM                        TH8 70MM shows will be on this list as soon as I get them: http://www.in70mm.com/now_showing/index.htm  |  IP: Logged Jonathan Jensen Film Handler Posts: 23 From: Copenhagen V, Copenhagen/Denmark Registered: Sep 2010 posted 10-19-2015 11:43 AM                     quote: Sean Weitzel I caught another facebook posting that it will be showing in 70mm at the Imperial Bio in Copenhagen Denmark starting January 7th.
