It's 1984 all over again?

I remember that back in 1984 Terry Gilliam had to almost resort to begging to get "Brazil" released when his edit turned out a few minutes longer than demanded by Universal. I wonder if anyone has seen a test screening of Gilliam's new movie. Did it go down well? Is it too dark? Too diffic...

Extra stuff in the digital version?

Before release, there were rumours that Lucas was still ...

What's this about some boycott?

I thought that was funny. By the way, Lucas...

Finally over

Saw it on opening day and a second time two days later. Now that I've found out that it is being projected digitally in one lonely cinema in town (not advertised as such though), might see it a third time. No doubt better than the previous two, but as we are all wont to do, could have been a bit bet...
