    yeah i get that

    but just think of all the free press, and social justice warriors kissing the movie's ass because of a black lead

    black panther had every critic sucking its dikk all the way to $700 million and that movie was mediocre at best

    Warner Bros. took “Tenet,” its twice-delayed Christopher Nolan thriller, off its release schedule Monday. Originally planned for a July 17 opening, it had most recently been scheduled to arrive Aug. 12. The move was made amid uncertainty over when U.S. movie theaters could reopen, especially in New York and Los Angeles, the latter of which is seeing an unprecedented surge in new COVID-19 cases.

    “We now expect domestic theaters to be largely closed until mid-2021,” he wrote, “in part because we don’t think studios will be interested in releasing their largest movies into a capacity-constrained footprint.”

    You'll know when theatre executives and the studios believe all is clear because that's when they'll release the next James Bond.

    That's a $350mm movie just sitting in a can.

    “We are not treating ‘Tenet’ like a traditional global day-and-date release,” Warner Bros. chairman Toby Emmerich said in a statement, “and our upcoming marketing and distribution plans will reflect that.”

    Emmerich said a new “Tenet” release date will be shared “imminently,” but there’s already speculation within Hollywood that the movie will open in countries that have done a better job containing the COVID-19 outbreak long before it will hit American theaters. Cinemas throughout Europe have begun reopening, and China, the world’s largest market outside the U.S., started that process Monday.
