Early reviews for Inhumans have not been good and the buzz surrounding the TV series is far from positive as a result. With reports pointing to Marvel making the show quickly and cheaply, chances are those first two episodes - which are set to premiere on IMAX screens next month - won't be very good.
That's what IMAX seems to think anyway as it's been revealed today that the company is cutting short the theatrical run for Inhumans a week sooner than expected. The plan was for the show to go up on those screens for two weeks but now Stephen King's IT is heading to IMAX theaters on September 8th, it's clear that they believe the horror movie stands a much better chance of making them money.
It's possible IMAX realised they don't have a hit on their hands here and that this experiment (showing the first two episodes of a TV show on their screens) is a failure. After all, many people will wait until it reaches TV as that version will feature extra content and if it is bad, word of mouth will make it a flop.
