I have to do an hour+ of highway driving to get to a 35mm screening of Jackie Brown (humblebrag) in about 15 minutes so it is very important that this comes to a halt

To make matters worse, the full-scale Godzilla parade balloon Toho sent them for the announcement is now roaming Manhattan unchaperoned

If I had any video/photoshop stills I'd totally put up a video of being shown the constant Coming Soon page refreshes on a moviola.

Just think of all the people who have died over the last two days that got cheated out of finding out what spine #1000 would be.

At this point I'm kinda expecting for them to announce a wave of previous titles going out of print instead.

When I saw
Infinity War, a sobbing child's parents consoled him that
Spider-Man wasn't really dead and would be in the next film. He replied: "But what if I die before it comes out? Then Spider-Man will always be dead to me."
That child has remained a source of haunting hilarity in my life ever since.
