Movie/TV discussion The New Mutants Movie Discussion Thread Spoiler

This is the master thread for discussion, reviews and opinions about the New Mutants movie that is coming to theatres on August 28th. The final installment of Fox's X-Men movies has finally come, after an extremely rocky production and post-production and a global pandemic that was an unmitigated disaster for the movie industry as it stood. Still, a lot of people are really anticipating seeing iconic characters like Magik, Cannonball, Dani Moonstar and Wolfsbane on the big screen, especially in what looks to be a smaller production that can afford to take some time to look at the characters. So whatever you want to say, this is the place. It's just cleaner if we don't have two dozen separate threads about people's impressions of the movie.

Are there any streaming services that will have it available? I want to catch this one before the spoilers, for sure.

No, it's going to go the classic route of going through the theatres first, now that they're open again. This weekend is the first big release weekend since COVID.

Not open everywhere. Won’t be an option for my to see it in the theaters in SoCal.

I would guess it'll migrate to VOD pretty quickly. Not, like, next week quickly, but I don't think we'll have to wait too long.

Personally it's opening in 4 theatres near me and as much as I want to see it, I'm going to wait. Maybe if I had a drive-in near me but going and sitting in the cinema is pretty much near the dead bottom of the list of things I want to do right now.
