I love my hometown theater so much. I used to be a weekly Brattle moviegoer for YEARS.
Y’know when the characters in a movie go to see a movie and it feels really meta? Well, with an “Ultimate Double Feature,” we play the first movie up until the point when they enter a cinema to watch a different film… then we play that film… then we go back to the first film to finish that story.

Every moviegoer on earth in the days before, during and after a Glen Powell film is released
Completely forgot about that Glenn Powell movie opening this weekend

Really enjoyed ‘Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die’ — it's not presented as a video game movie* but it's absolutely a video game movie. IMO it also used the 2hr 15min runtime really well.
*Outside of the title, which doesn't read "video game" to the average moviegoer.

i couldn't decide my favorite character in "WUTHERING HEIGHTS"
- Cathy
- Heathcliff
- The moviegoer that was on snap/insta/game app whole time
- Girls crying in our row hard at the end
- Me trying to disassociate and wish the movie over faster

Of course, but I wonder what the average moviegoer thought in 1958.
Oh, he married her in the end, nothing really happened…
Just interesting how the movie code allowed so much as long as it wasn’t explicit, which is counter to what most people attribute to the “code”.

And that angle may be more of a “anniversary” perspective. That is, looking back and examining what the film generally says about this era’s moviegoer: their passions, hangups, values, etc. But I feel like the film could end up being a very rich text in that regard.

As a typical moviegoer:
—Empire and Return of the Jedi
—The Never-Ending Story
—Mask of the Phantasm
As a Marvel employee:
I attended every MCU Hollywood premiere, Iron Man through Winter Soldier.

Have asked this before and always like the responses. What are your biggest “I saw that in the first run cinema” flexes? Couple of mine:
Transformers: The Movie (1986)
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
Office Space (1999)

this is a silly one, but Hackers (1995)
I'm not much of a moviegoer in general but I was a teenager and I imprinted on this very silly very fun movie

One thing I’ll still say for the Moviegoer is that he nails the “eccentric” southern aristocrat to the wall with Aunt Emily

I remember liking Moviegoer for specific scenes and vignettes while also thinking “I’m not sure I need to hear the corresponding theories about Western civilization”

Percy doesn’t really work the same when you’re older, but I do think Moviegoer and Last Gentlemen are still fine for what they were doing when they were doing it. The main thing that stuck out rereading Percy later in life is unfortunately that he is to butts what Tarantino is to feet.

I loved The Moviegoer around age 20, need to revisit. Found Three Men in a Boat hilarious but also found the structure (constant flashbacks) tedious and eventually quit

I guess I thought EoE had more of a reputation! I really am a pretty cheap date…compared to many people on here who I greatly respect, I thought The Moviegoer was extremely “just okay”. Don’t really care for White Noise, though the first and last chapters bang.

I think so. Personally I think them showing that one character was too much however I have also seen both sides of the conversation and maybe to a non book reader/non scifi person/average moviegoer that they may have needed to put that in there to hook somebody in to go see it.

Article I read regarding the movie #Melania that had some quotes that made me say WTF. “One moviegoer said the film showed Melania bringing "dignity back to the White House." “I love Melania,” added another, who declined to give her name. “She speaks five languages. She's very intelligent”. Huh?
