So, Mr. Snyder, I have good news and bad news:

The good news is, people are talking about your new movie!

The bad news? Well…

@DawsBear: ZACK SNYDER’S “THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH” is grotesque, shameless and an utter disgrace from start to finish. It is Snyder at his most unfiltered, with no studio intervention and is the films largest problem. It’s desperate to be Snyder’s ‘Civil War’, but feels like Daily Wire slop…

@joblocom: The Last Photograph: about 90 minutes of it is a brutal, unrelenting thriller. Some incredible action and uncompromisingly rough. But there’s another 45 supremely indulgent auteur gunk that is snicker-worthy. There’s a good movie in it – but the cut we saw is a (fascinating) mess

@HertzBarry: THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH: Snyder’s version of The Quiet American represents a certain nadir for TIFF programming. But don’t worry — this lurid, turgid, and not a little bit racist tour up river will likely never escape Toronto in its current form. #TIFF26

@NextBestPicture: I’m sure Zack Snyder believes he’s made something far more profound and artful than his previous work with THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH, and in some ways, he has. Unfortunately, it’s still a tedious, frustrating, and grueling experience. Easily the worst film I’ve seen at TIFF so far.…

@JoeyMagidson: The Last Photograph is a real nasty piece of business. Zack Snyder clearly got to make the film he wanted to make, and good for him, but man oh man is it one I wish I hadn’t seen. Boring, bloated, brutally violent, it’s excessive in all the wrong ways. #TheLastPhotograph #TIFf

@thejoshl: The Last Photograph: Pains me to report that Zack Snyder spent 25 years trying to make his war journalist mercenary take on Apocalypse Now and The Searchers and the final result was functionally indistinguishable from Sound of Freedom. #tiff26

@TheOnlyCritic: Borderline embarrassing TIFF let in THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH. Absolutely abysmal.

@dmoviereviews: The Last Photograph is daring departure for Zack Snyder from his typical filmmaking, creating a more intimate story anchored in photography and brought to life by his striking cinematography and Hans Zimmer’s musical score. Sprawling Columbian landscapes are beautifully captured…

@MulloyElizabeth: Put Zack Snyder in directors jail permanently. THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH is dogshit. Its aimless, contrived, misogynistic, convoluted, messy, overtly long, abysmal, repetative, slow, shallow, and downright awful. Only positive- it looked pretty. #tiff

@filmfest_ca: THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH – Zach Snyder’s abortion of a film is one of the worst to ever play this festival. APOCALYPSE NO. Just unabashedly shit on every level, an excercise in incompetence and hubris, and an embarrassment to have been screened. #tiff26

@davemabaldwin: THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH has all the hallmarks of a typical Zack Snyder film: vicious violence, questionable ethics, a long drawn out running time, slow motion, and cool looking shots just for the sake of it. I admire his audacity, but have no idea why this exists. #TIFF26

@TheGiovanniLago: Watching The Last Photograph must’ve been like when the boys felt watching Medellín in Entourage. Possibly one of the worst films I’ve had the displeasure of sitting through. Snyder joking that this may be the only time the film is screened doesn’t feel like a joke anymore.

@TheEmiller2002: Zack Snyder tries so hard to make an art house movie with #TheLastPhotograph that the finished film feels like a parody. Gratuitous and sluggishly paced, it features a compelling premise that’s held back by Snyder’s worst tendencies as a filmmaker and shoddy performances.

@fuzzyyarns: It’s kinda apparent why a studio didn’t make THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH with Zack Snyder. There isn’t really a movie here. There are many interesting images, but it’s dramatically a non-starter. And lead Stuart Martin isn’t up to it. #TIFF26

@HammerkopCross: The worst film I’ve seen this year at #TIFF26 is undoubtedly THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH. A dull, brutal, flavorless trainwreck that can’t even find tension or style in its ultraviolent action.

@landi52orlando: The Last Photograph (🌟🌟🌟) sees Zack Snyder bring a decades-long passion project to life in a stunning, staggering fashion. I’ve always admired Snyder’s boldness as a storyteller, and he once again displays mastery of crafting vibrant, meaningful visuals in a film reminiscent…

@theholofiles: THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH isn’t quite a return to form for Zach Snyder. Less stylized and more intimate, grounded, and brutal than any movie he has made to date, the film takes itself far too seriously and features comically excessive and unnecessary nudity of women. Snyder doesn’t…

@camfess: THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH – Tragedyslop that the extreme Snyder fans may have forgiven if it had any of his more unique quirks or verve but it lacks much to recommend. Even the folks who cheered for Batman V Superman in the intro were tittering during the emotional climax. #tiff26

TL;DR: A24 wanted a bigger cut of the ticket sales, Harkins Theaters said “no”.

Unfortunately, we were not able to secure mutually agreeable terms with A24 to present their films at this time. We are disappointed that this is the outcome and we apologize for the inconvenience this may cause our guests.”

Is that a romcom where Godzilla gets a girlfriend?

He’s gonna put some dirt in your eye.

To be fair, there are some things that work in comic books that don’t work in movies, and vice versa. But they should still try to adapt the comic panels so that it translates better to film, not change the storyline completely.

Also, we already have a Killing Joke movie and a Hush movie (unless you specifically meant big budget live-action adaptations).

“Bitcoin”, directed by Doug Liman.

Thanks, edited.

IMO they should’ve re-released all 13 of the movies, make a whole month of it.

What’s with all these celebrities dropping like flies? Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and now frickin’ Optimus Prime himself?

This has been a depressing week. At least the reunion party in heaven will be a blast.

Don’t worry, she didn’t shred puppies.

The Fediverse knows where you live.

If I could pin this comment, I would.

It’s like complaining that “there’s no good music anymore” while only listening to the top 40 station.

Go right ahead.

Although I will note, I use uBlock Origin on Firefox mobile, and I didn’t get paywalled.

I post Deadline articles here all the time, I have uBlock Origin on my phone and it looks fine to me. I’ve never had that kind of issue.

And Deadline is a trusted, reliable source, along with Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, and The Wrap.

Yesterday I did a double feature and saw “The End of Oak Street” and the 10th anniversary screening of “Your Name”.

Korben, my man!

Glad you and your son enjoyed it!

Because John Cena is the Peacemaker.
