While Paul Thomas Anderson believes in the Kodak Film Stock Preservation coalition that is Tarantino, Nolan, Apatow and Abrams, the director has understandable doubts, stating that it is “still a temporary reprieve. The death notice—there’s a sign on your back that’s saying you’re still gonna get executed— [is still there],” adding, “more needs to be done [about the potential extinction of the film format].”

“Christopher Nolan is at the front lines of all of this, I have to say,” stated Anderson, and continued by advocating that “[Christopher Nolan]'s made a beautiful film, if anybody gets out to see ‘Interstellar’ when it comes out.” Anderson's comments however, were then followed by a sarcastic, but good-natured Kent Jones, in suggesting that “I'm just trying to put in the good word, [Christopher Nolan]’s a decent filmmaker; you probably haven’t heard about this one,” while Thomas subsequently added to the joke, by proposing for everyone to “[s]upport this filmmaker.”

“But don’t [frick] around, go see it in IMAX,” PTA clearly expressed. “Brave the line. Do it, bite the bullet,” he stressed.

I think just about everything relating to the anticipation of Interstellar has been said already, but gawd does Inherent Vice look good. That first trailer was fantastic.

Can't say I'm a fan of this guy. I've liked a couple of his movies but his collective body of work isn't my thing.

IMAX:

BFI Imax London: £18.40 + debit/visa card-handling charge ([frick]ing cheek): 21p + (potentially) booking fee of 50p = a grand total of £19.11 (that's $30.74 for the benefit of my American cousins)

“But don’t [frick] around, go see it in IMAX, - Brave the line. Do it, bite the bullet!,” - Paul Thomas Anderson

.....

I'll tell you what you can bite - and it sure ain't a bullet!. Go [frick] yourself Anderson.

Can you imagine those prices enforced in America? - There'd be riots from cinema-go'ers ! - and no-one would go to the movies anymore.
