AMC Theaters hold Screen Unseen showings, where you don’t know what movie you’re seeing going in, but are assured that the movie hasn’t been shown in an AMC Theater before.
You’re given 2 pieces of information: the film’s rating, and its length (often obfuscated slightly by +/- 10minutes). This movie will be R-rated and ~2hrs 3mind long.
What movie am I seeing on Monday, October 7th, 2024?
I will be betting here, but the market will close before the showing, so I will only be betting blind. If for any reason I don’t make the screening, this market will Resolve N/A.
Past Unseens I’ve seen:
Slingshot [Aug 26th], reported time was 3mins shorter
Skincare [Aug 12th], reported time was 5mins longer
Kneecap [July 22nd], reported time was 8mins longer
Sing Sing [July 15th], reported time was 8mins longer
The Bikeriders [June 17th], reported time was 7mins longer
Babes [May 13th], reported time was 11mins longer
ok, so the subtext here is that Ziddle and I found out that Reddit tracks this, and it’s public info once the east coast screenings begin.
i’ll do this again and i’ll close it 3hrs earlier. it was Exhibiting Forgiveness
@mattyb luckily skimming the thread, it looks like even the reddit commenters didn't have a great sense of what it would be before the east coast showtimes. so there's plenty of mystery left, and it's really hard to narrow these down
@Ziddletwix if anything this proves how good a market on these grab bag screenings are! just needs to be run more fairly
I’m going to be seeing this movie in 2hrs and was damn near certain that it was Smile 2 until @Ziddletwix bet that down to 0… What am I seeing tonight?
@mattyb NO limit up at 25% (can share after why i'm guessing it isn't smile but i could very easily be wrong)
This movie will be R-rated and ~2hrs 3mind long
and the film’s length (often obfuscated slightly by +/- 10minutes)
Does this not mean it can't be Anora, Saturday Night, We Live in Time, and Saw? @mattyb
@Bayesian honestly, I don’t know! There’s no like hard or fast rules here; AMC doesn’t tell you much until the movie begins.
I really don’t think it’ll be We Live in Time or Saturday Night, because I’ve seen both. But both of those screenings are early/live Q&A, so who knows!
As for the length, I just got the +/- 10mins from seeing a few of these now. That was never published anywhere.
