No IMAX release for Weapons in India due to War 2; | Indian Movie News
The thriller horror movie, Weapons, has been launched today worldwide, including India. There’s a lot of curiosity for the movie as the pre-release studies have been strong. Though this just isn’t a typical biggie, a part of the viewers is worked up to catch the movie on the IMAX screens. However, the Indian viewers gained’t be fortunate in this regard.
It seems that Weapons will skip an IMAX release in India. A source explained the rationale for it, “Weapons releases on August 8, while War 2 is scheduled to arrive in cinemas on Thursday, August 14. Yash Raj Films (YRF), producers of War 2, have exclusively booked all 33 IMAX screens in India. Hence, Weapons would have got a run in IMAX for only 6 days as opposed to other parts of the world where it’ll continue to play for at least a few weeks. Warner Bros felt it was impractical to bring the film in IMAX in this country for such a short period of time and hence, decided to skip its IMAX release.”
This means that F1: The Movie has obtained another prolonged run in the IMAX theatres in the nation. Starring Brad Pitt, it was launched on June 27 and despite not being a typical mainstream entertainer, it continues to entice the viewers steadily. In IMAX, however, it’s having an excellent run. It was discontinued from the IMAX theatres due to the release of The Fantastic Four: First Steps. But from August 1, it was back and continues to rule.
From August 8, F1: The Movie may have more exhibits in IMAX. In both the IMAX properties in Pune and at Cinepolis Seawoods Navi Mumbai and Cinepolis Thane, F1: The Movie may have 4 exhibits a day. It’s no shock that the weekend exhibits are already filling fast, though it’s at the moment in its seventh week. At the Indian box workplace, it has crossed the Rs. 90 crores mark and it stays to be seen if it manages to cross the Rs. 100 crores mark.
Fans of F1: The Movie ought to notice that this can be the last week for the movie in IMAX, again, due to War 2. But it’s clear that there’s a lot of fuel left in the tank and it gained’t be a shock if it manages to be back in IMAX cinemas once again after some time in one of the open weeks.
Coming back to Weapons, the Zach Cregger-directorial has managed to have a first rate advance reserving and it is better than the other big Hollywood week release of the week, Freakier Friday. It stays to be seen if Weapons also emerges as another shock at the box workplace.
