Studio screening for "Eyes Wide Shut" in May!
...but you better be a Warner Bros. department head or else you won't be getting past the doors.
I've just been tipped off that a rough cut of Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut will be screened for WB department heads the week of May 10th in London, England. According to the source, the corporate travel office that oversees the studio's three company jets circulated a memo that "was practically a coded message," in the words of the informant.
There will be a May 15th screening of WB's big summer 'tentpole' release The Avengers at Cannes (which I'm lookin' forward to seeing; hey, anyone spot me a plane ticket to France?) Ingeniously, the WB memo mentioned a "48 hour London stopover", almost as an afterthought, on the itinerary for the flight. Thus, the secret screening is filtered amongst the heads of the departments while nothing is revealed to the rest of memo readers who aren't on the short list.
For the final thought of what this meant to the scooper in question, you'll have to check out
the Eyes Wide Shut page, my fellow Kubrickites. (Hey, with that
name I think I just invented a new cult.)
"Twin Peaks" sequel!
"There was a press release today concerning the much-awaited Twin Peakssequel. David Lynch will/would be involved with all stages of the project, which is slated at a 250 Million Yen schedule, which makes it the most expensive Twin Peaks project yet.
"In addition to a feature film involving heavy use of computer animation, Twin Peaks: Woodcutters would also have a DVD CD-ROM computer game version marketed alongside it.
"Fans are going crazy about this, guys. It's at least worthy of a page to follow the development... Twin Peaks is one of the grand-daddies of cult fandoms."
Well, for the 90's at least my man, but I hear ya anyway; a page for it will be up soon, and it's scheduled for release in summer 1999. But would some investment-minded person please translate what the equivalent of 250 million yen is in American greenbacks?
