The theatrical cut was too short. I saw the movie and they left out a few scenes that got cut when joss whedon filled in to finish the movie following Mr. Snyder’s daughter committing suicide. The current version that’s on digital and disc has outgrossed the theatrical run. Last jedi on another hand is already sold out on Amazon .

Hello-

I thank Peter A. for his reply. It validates my thought that if Snyder didn’t finish directing the film how can there be a “Zack Snyder cut”. which prompts the question- why do people asking for one?

“if Snyder didn’t finish directing the film how can there be a Zack Snyder cut?”

There isn’t one. At best, there’s a rough cut of his version with unfinished special effects.

No, Lincoln Square didn’t charge extra for the 70mm shows of Phantom Thread. You could see it before noon for the $8 matinee price.

Alamo Drafthouse also charges extra for 70mm. Some theaters do that.

Hello-

though I frequently come here i didn’t see The Phantom Thread here which is where my question comes in. did they charge extra for the 70MM engagement of TPT which lasted several weeks? the reason I ask is simple. I saw Ready Player One at the Village East which was showing it in 70MM in the main auditorium and they charged $20 with no discounts for seniors or children. that $20 was the highest price I have paid for a film that wasn’t 3-D, IMAX or IMAX 3-D.

the odd part is I saw both Wonder Woman and Murder on the Orient Express in 70MM last year at the Cinema 1 also a City Cinemas theater and they didn’t charge extra or not have the senior or children’s discount.

@leowtyx, it really seems to come down to the movie. But at least what AMC/IMAX seemed to do with Thor, Star Wars, Pacific Rim, and now Infinity War is all 3D showings at Lincoln Square, all 2D at Penn Station, and mix in 2D and 3D showings at Empire 25 and Kips Bay.

Does this theater show IMAX Laser in 2D concurrently with 3D when there’s a 3D blockbuster movie?

that happens when there is really bad weather and the main center is shut down, all the ticket sites claim they don’t sell AMC tickets

it happened during the last noreaster when tons lost power out in NJ, that time NYC had tickets, but northern NJ did not

I think it’s because of the snowstorms.

I think there must be a bug or crash with AMC. I was looking at tickets either to Pacific Rim IMAX or Isle of Dogs tonight, and every ticket service wasn’t working (Fandango, Atom, AMC’s own site), and not just this theater, but also checked the AMC Empire and Kips Bay.

Anyone have any idea why ticketing is disabled on ticket sites such as Fandango and Atom Tickets?

Look up the battle MP is having AMC and you will see that a piece of concessions is part of it. Spending money on tickets is not the same as building theatres. This is all going to court.

Where did you read that MP is “demanding concessions percentages”?

They are requesting basic ticket discounts, the same that Costco gets.

And what do you mean they’re making no investments in theaters? They spend millions every month on movie tickets all across the county.

By the way, UK ticket prices are much higher. Cineworld is a mostly British based company run by Israelis from main offices in Poland.

Al Alvarez on March 21, 2018 at 11:40 am

MP is now demanding concessions percentages from theatres because the business model is not working. They are trying to cut into theatre profits without actually making any investments in theatres. It is a racket scam AMC and Regal will soon be forced to eliminate.

It will be shown in IMAX 3D at Lincoln Square.

Some people here prefer IMAX 2D but it seems to be only scheduled for IMAX 3D right now.

@Al: Cineworld is British, no? I assume UK ticket prices are a bit less than American ones. Plus that’s only one chain, MoviePass covers almost all U.S. theaters. Regal as of right now, to my knowledge, has no plans of pulling out, I talked to one of their marketing people and he says it helps Regal and that he used it himself. Once Cineworld takes over Regal, then it might be a different story. But even then I assume that they’ll create their own program in addition to MP rather than pulling out of MP.

Still don’t know why you see it as a “scheme”. It’s a business.

I am confused with some of the posts above. What is the reason Avengers won’t be displayed in 3D Imax in the LS Imax?

Al Alvarez
Al Alvarez on March 19, 2018 at 7:20 pm

digital3d, Cineworld has had it’s own Unlimited Movie Pass for years. Moviepass will soon be history when AMC and Regal both pull out of that stupid scheme. AMC will start one as well and you will pay twice, or not at all.

I don’t think it’s (just) the location that’s the issue. It’s that Landmark 57 doesn’t accept MoviePass.

There is simply no reason for me to go there and spend 18 bucks on a movie when I can get MoviePass to pay for it at another theater. (Like Linc Square for instance, much closer to the subway too). With “Journey’s End” it’s a special scenario, since they were the only theater playing that movie. But often they play the same stuff as a bunch of other Manhattan theaters.

It’s really a shame, given how much money was put into Landmark 57 and how it’s a clean, newly built multiplex. I hope it doesn’t go bankrupt, will start to accept MoviePass and see a nice surge in patrons.

Hello-

have any other frequent patrons at this theater visited the new Landmark 57th St.? I went yesterday to see Journey’s End. the theater is state of the art and the film was first rate but there were more staff than patrons. as I posted when the 57th St. was about to open who does Landmark think is going to trek to the Westside Highway(its right next to the 57th St.) to see a movie?

that would seem odd Heisen considering for 3D ‘brightness’ is actually boosted for dimensionality to work, the only element that is causing darkness would be the IMAX glasses. Of the two ‘laser’(Smithsonian Institute) IMAX theaters in and around the Washington DC area, the brightness is consistent and impressive and shows off how beneficial ‘laser’ (IMAX) projection is in overall state of the art presentation.

At least the audio will be good for both versions.

I really wish I could agree with all of you in that the IMAX 3D in Lincoln looks just as good, but even after the Laser renovations I still notice a glaring dip in quality, speaking from experience. It does look better than your typical 3D in an average theater, but when compared to the 2D in Lincoln I feel like the colors are still definitely off and not as bright as they are for 2D.

@alpinedownhiller- I believe it was said Infinity War will be finished in 4K (makes sense since it was shot on IMAX digital cameras). Though as you point out, all IMAX lasers DCPs are 4K, using upscaling when a film’s regular DCP is 2K.
