OBAA 70mm Sneak Previews Announced! PTA Personally Pitches VistaVision

 

Hello, hello! Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another is hitting the road two days early! You can see the movie early on September 24 in special 70mm engagements across the country and the world.

This morning, PTA provided a special communique through the film's official social media outlets, regarding the film's use of VistaVision:

So, yes, it's bittersweet that proper formal VistaVision presentation will be in very limited markets, but it also sounds like there isn't a bad apple in the bushel. If you haven't already, you can snag your 9/24 tickets at the official website of the film onebattleafteranothermovie.com

"One Battle After Another" Gets R Rating As New Posters Arrive

Hello, hello!

It sure sounds like PTA has stuck a fork in his 10th motion picture, as the MPA has finally, formally given One Battle After Another its anticipated R rating.

The rating is owed to pervasive language, violence, sexual content, and drug use. 

Warner Bros also recently released the pair of new posters for the movie shown above.

Somehow we are just t-minus 35 days now, folks. This is really happening!

PTA & LDC Speak About "One Battle After Another" For First Time

Good evening! 

September is close, can't you just feel it?

That means we are that much closer to the world wide release of Paul Thomas Anderson's 10th feature film, One Battle After Another.

Today, PTA & Leonardo DiCaprio inaugurated the press campaign for the film in Esquire with a really cool self-interview, complete with portraits of LDC courtesy of PTA himself.

Read the whole article yourself here -- at your own personal peril of very light spoiler talk, of course, 

The film's relationship (or lack thereof) to Thomas Pynchon's Vineland is touched on, as well as a maybe-surprising-ish influence or two on the new movie. The whole thing is interesting, charming, and well worth reading.

T minus 44 days!

New "One Battle After Another" Trailer Lands Online

Hello hello!

If you ventured out to see the new Supes flick from DC in theatres this last week, chances are good you were also treated to a brand new trailer for One Battle After Another from Paul Thomas Anderson - and now it would appear that that trailer has made its way onto the Warner Bros youtube channel, albeit unlisted (?)

For now, it's embedded above for you to see - though I will make a humble plea that it does play well on the big screen, if you should feel like schlepping yourself to your nearest 'plex.

Additionally, WB also recently released a character poster for Chase Infiniti's character in the film...

...and also a smaller new teaser trailer for the film, featuring some new footage mixed in with a fair amount of previously released footage:

Teaser For "One Battle After Another" Trailer Arrives!

Well then -

Warner Bros announced today that they will release a full trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson's forthcoming One Battle After Another next week - and has dropped a 20-second teaser to entice you.

Good morning! 

ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER. Coming 9.26.25.

 

Hello hello!

Today, Variety confirmed two long-speculated but previously unofficial pieces of information about PTA's hotly anticipated new one:

• It is untitled no longer! And is indeed called One Battle After Another. 
  Intense.
  
  
• To less fanfare, Warner Bros has pushed the movie back a handful of weeks to now open in wide release on September 26 from its originally scheduled August 8 slot.
  
  

Variety attributes the delay to an exciting piece of information we didn't already know:

• Warner Bros is currently working with theatre chains to retrofit their screens with VistaVision projection systems to be able to show the film properly. 
  
  

Gulp.

Beyond that, we also now know that Warner Bros has test-screened the movie a couple of times over the last month+, and while much about the outcome of those screenings is not known, there have been persistent whispers that the film does indeed track Thomas Pynchon's Vineland quite closely and that the runtime is in the neighborhood of three hours (!) 

Whether this will be a formal adaptation by way of credit is not yet clear, and whether there may still be trims forthcoming is also not clear, so do take the information with a grain of salt. At any rate, this is starting to take on a 'Willard-finally-nearing-Kurtz' vibe.

It's close... you can feel it.

More soon, hopefully sooner than later!
