Guest, did you like the last podcast notification?? Well here's the second one, and for the third podcast! Yep. This Thursday 8-8-24 at 7pm Central
Go here to check out his podcast thread for info on topics and links!Go into the FoH discord and find the Happy Time Fun Hour channel and give it a listen!
I was also thinking the same thing recently. I actually thought that they usually start showing up in late November. And I have not seen many at all floating around in Torrentland. Maybe they came up with a new way of distributing them that is better at keeping them from "pirates"?
One of my clients worked in the biz so he still gets screeners. He has been receiving them for the past two weeks at least. I don't even recognize any of the movies he has gotten so there is that.

kinda sucks that each year they give awards to movies nobody has seen, then they are shocked nobody watches these award shows. yeah i get that the "popular" movies are for supposed dummies, but if the dummies liked a movie so much and all the nominations are for shit nobody heard of or even had the chance to go see, then whats the fucking point?
that being said, i have not seen screeners floating around either, but i probably would not recognize one if i had.

I was just talking about this the other day too. But then when I thought about it, there aren't really any movies I can even think of that I'm waiting to see anyway. Riddick was really the last one I was looking forward to. Other than something that just came out like The Hobbit, is there even anything worth watching lately? I'm sure there is, but I can't think of any off the top of my head.
Gravity is the only screener I've really noticed, but I'm waiting for the 1080p rip a few months from now because I figure that's one that is worth seeing in good quality.

I really want to see Rush.
Comes out on Blu-Ray the end of next month. If I like the screener, I'll absolutely buy it. I like the premise of a 70's F1 movie, and I know some of the back story that makes the movie what it is. Sad I couldn't see it in theaters.

screeners are always standard definition (max 720x480 res), fuck that shit wait a few weeks/months for the 1080p high defs with 7.1 DTS sound. They must have tightened the watermarks and stuff on the screeners, since a few should have leaked out by now but nada.
I have literally 10TB of movies that I have downloaded that I want to see before I die, but rarely watch more than one movie a week. Too many good TV shows and video games to suck up all my free time. Random sampling of movies in my "to watch" htpc folder

Bounty Killer
Coffee Town
Croods
Dear Mr Watterson (calvin and hobbes docu)

Heat
Last Days on Mars
Man of Tai Chi
Men in Black 3
Night Train to Lisbon
Olympus Has Fallen
Only God Forgives
Pain and Gain
well the list goes on and on and on

If you have not seen this movie just watch it immediately. It's about 10000000x better than anything else on your list and is an alltime great movie.

I just finished watching that, and really enjoyed it. Had no idea what it was, never saw a preview or heard anything about it. Just saw it near the top of a torrent list, recognized the actor in the screenshot, and went "Ohh cool, some kind of space movie, sounds good."
I mean, it wasn't amazing or anything, but seemed well worth watching to me. Although, come to think of it, fuck shakycam.
Last days on Mars was fucking retarded. what a waist of good actors
I usually get the list of nominations then watch all the screeners for the awards, makes it enjoyable for me.
Been doing that for the last 6 years.
