The Odeon Cinema Bristol UK

Opened on Saturday 16th July in 1938 it was claimed to be the best cinema in the country and could seat 1,945 people. Built by Cecil T. Howitt. In 1967 it was given the largest screen in Bristol. The cinema was converted to multiscreen in 1974, it was again revamped in 1984/5 and continues to this day, although much altered as a multiscreen, the original stalls seating area is now retail shopping, the original balcony area being the multiscreen space.

It now seems (Nov 2024) that as Odeon has taken over the recently closed Bristol De-luxe Showcase Cinema, that the future of the original site, shown above, is in doubt ...

A lot of it has to do with people multiscreening, sure, but one of the most annoying things Disney/MCU has done to media engagement, I think, is to help train people to depend on dialogue almost exclusively to understand what is going on.

So you get scenes like -

"The power to this evil laser machine... if only somebody could cut it, it would stop shooting evil lasers!"

(We see Captain America smash the evil laser machine's generator)

"I've smashed the generator! That takes care of the power to the evil laser machine, it should be shutting down right about... now!"

Watch an action movie from the 1980s or 1990s and it is wild how little of this redundant explanatory dialogue there is a lot of the time.

A character doesn't explain why he's building a pipe bomb; he just builds it, throws it at the smug acquitted guy coming out of court, and says "That's for my daughter you son of a bitch!" - the movie taking it for granted you've joined the dots.

The rule is supposed to be "Show, Don't Tell", but realistically, people just won't see it if you don't tell them to anymore.

Anyway this is a post about people complaining Caitlyn Arcane didn't say sorry for what she did, in between - or maybe instead of - all the stuff she was doing to show it.
