Licorice Pizza - Speculation & General Reactions

[Tdog]

Every single day this thread gives me new reasons to hate life.

I'm with you. Something happened here between PT and LP. Did Covid turn a bunch of members into snarky assholes?

Besides the Jurgensen promotion, we've got Florencia Martin as production designer from being just a buyer on The Master, to production designing the Haim videos, to this.

Without dwelling too much on the negative, I've noticed this too. Haven't been here as long as some, but Ive never seen this level of misplaced  animosity here. If some of you could exit your sphere of venom and join the rest of us for playtime, that'd be great.

If they're guild screenings then we'll probably get reactions from them right? I don't think they make them sign embargoes?

[HACKANUT]

With it being this close to the limited release I hope they lift the shroud of secrecy enough to allow the reactions to get out. But with this marketing (read: lack of marketing) we'll just have to keep fingers crossed.

From an "early screenings" perspective, this feels just like the ones for THREAD. What kind of reactions came out of those?  I'm not remembering now...

[Drenk]

The Crown with mushrooms.

RSVP'd for a few of the guild screenings here in NY. Not a member, but hey, I got into a screening of Phantom Thread four years ago.

Anyone else relieved on some level that Cooper has stayed off the radar thus far?  I'm projecting my own concern for the lad, obviously, but...

[HACKANUT]

Definitely in the same boat. I'd honestly be fine if he stays out of the spotlight the entire PR cycle. No need to be subjected to the questions we all know are waiting for him.

Yeah it's hard to imagine that scumbags in the media won't ask him the worst possible questions to milk some easy clicks.

Maybe he'll do some print interviews instead with a publicist present to avoid the obvious shit coming his way.

[wilberfan]

He's appearing with Paul and Alana in NYC for three screenings, but hopefully that will just be a moderated session--as with THREAD.   (There was a full-court scrum around Paul when the lights came up, but I'm sure Covid protocols will prevent that this time.)

Sorry I contributed to the ugliness, y'all. I'll do better.

Absolutely. Not looking forward to whatever kind of asshole questions reporters will inevitably ask.

There were photos from when PTA did the Kimmel interview, and Cooper Hoffman was with him. Maybe showing him the ropes? I could see him doing an interview with a late night host like that. "Good vibes only" type of setting.

Can you find a link to those? I don't recall that and am curious.
