There's been a lotta movies over 2.5 hours -- The Irishman and Once Upon a Time in Hollywoo are among them -- but this is a first for Bond films. It's hard to sustain a fast-paced action/adventure this long. We'll see if they can pull it off.
Oh certainly. Disney stock has gone from 151 to 120 since COV hit. Cinemark and AMC are each down about 40%.
Perhaps NTTD will be a thoughtful plot-driven throwback to the likes of FRWL and Goldfinger. I kid, I kid.
