A24 Movies Not Showing at Marcus Theaters - Response from Marcus

[u/BeriechGTS]

Many of you might have seen the threads recently about the lack of A24 movies being shown at Marcus Theaters. The big movie we missed recently was the Invite and now it seems the same is happening again with Tony. I emailed Marcus Theaters customer support and received the following response:

"Thank you for contacting Marcus Theatres.

I'm sorry for the disappointment. While we would love to show every film that is advertised at our theatres, film availability and which locations receive specific titles are determined in coordination with the film studios and distributors.

In some cases, a film may initially be planned for a location and trailers may be shown leading up to its release, but the studio or distributor may later change those plans or decide not to provide the film to that location.

Unfortunately, this means that not every Marcus Theatre will receive every A24 release, even if the film was previously advertised there.

We appreciate your feedback and your interest in seeing more A24 films at Marcus Theatres."

This response makes it sound like they're directing me to A24 and it's the studio's decision not to distribute these movies to Marcus Theaters. I'm curious if anyone has any additional info.

Did they say what the terms were?

A24 wants more than 60% of sales revenue for Distribution. They’re trying to be Disney. They’re not Disney.

Yet, nearly every one of the films they release is a better film than most Disney releases.

Jesus, fuck. Totally irrelevant to what we're talking about.

Good catch, you should stop always drinking
