    Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

    It sure seems to be and it seems there is an across the board problem with these third-party vendors and the way studios interact with them. It’s a two-fold issue where on the studio side, studios are making unreasonable demands relative to the amount they’re paying and the deadlines they’re...

    Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

    I caught this before the revised sound mix went out but fortunately I didn’t have an issue understanding everything. I guess whatever volume settings my local theater had were sufficient. Someone forwarded me a Twitter post from Lord and Miller telling audience members they should ask...
