  • Families will find purchasing the film on Disney+ cheaper than goin to the movies and families are Mulan's main target. Plus, once you bought Mulan you can rewatch it for the next 6 months. Obviously what is sustainable for Disney is far beyond w…
  • Covid is doing to cinema what Napster did to music. It’s pretty much historic what Disney - the biggest movie company ever - is doing regarding the way we will experience films in the coming years. Like Caesar said: Alea iacta est.
  • Said MKM Partners’ Eric Handler today about the shocking news: “It’s definitely the sign of the times. Disney has been the biggest supporter of the theatrical window over the last several years, and they know how to maximize all windows. We’ll have …
  • They simply cannot wait any longer to release their films and they’re trying this route. Mulan for the record was supposed to come out in March so it’s been a long delay. It’s the biggest Disney film of the year (it would’ve set records in China wit…
  • Wow so Mulan is heading to Disney Plus on September 4th for $30! https://www.google.it/amp/s/www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2020/8/4/21354593/mulan-release-date-disney-earnings-warner-bros-tenet-theaters Not a good sign at all for the movie i…
  • Just finished TMWTGG and I have to say I was expecting it to be worse. Yes, it lacks further polishing but I really loved the western feeling to it. A crepuscular tale with some really cool imagery, especially in the finale. The beginning with “robo…

  • Let’s see what happens now. Someone must go first... and I’m glad is not Bond. Unfortunately I won’t be able to see Tenet in August since I’ll be on a trip but I’ll go in September without a doubt.

  • Fukunaga feeling the need/being forced to resign almost 5 months after the film has been completely finished and locked is possibly the single most hilarious and naive thing I ever read inhere since I signed up. Good job @MeetBond you made me smile.…
