Hint #3, the movie does not pass the Bechdel Test



(getting all technical on you guys! ha ha)

As a related link, films that do pass the Bechdel Test make more money.

Bechdel Test...passing it means, "the movie has more than one named female character, these women talk to one other and discuss topics other than men."

Ex-Machina...?

Hint #2. It is not the same studio as Jurassic whatever.

Ex-Machina (Lionsgate Films)

Hint #1

It's a new release (not a catalog title)

Ex-Machina release date July 14.

Ok. My educated guesses are 3:
Fifty Shades of Grey
Unfriended
Pitch Perfect 2
They are all new (not catalog), Universal movies (which seems to be all of the Mondos), and passes that silly test...

What do I get if I win?!!

Didn't read clue #2, my friend.

When this Mondo X line was announced this was one of my most wanted. But I found out this wasn't released by Mondo unfortunately.
I love the film and I love that print!

Damn... Well that's ruined my day!

 

[C.C. 95]

Damn, I missed clue #2...
It's probably IT FOLLOWS. It deserves a Cadillac release!
I need some Jug music to think...

Release dates for Blu rays and Steelbooks can be mutually exclusive BTW...

I heard that Pac Man 'dying sound' with that pic!!!

Or what I'd really like to see... The Big Lebowski

Horror. Gotta be horror, right?

@jcm

BTW, 'Jurassic Whatever' sounds waaaay better than 'The Raptor Whisperer' we are about be served up...!!

Neither of these have Mondo artwork, right?

Also, Cooties doesn't come out until September.

YET. And aren't they just announcing it? They could announce a steelbook months off.

Bechdel Test...passing it means, "the movie has more than one named female character, these women talk to one other and discuss topics other than men."

Ex-Machina...?

But if it does't pass it, that means there aren't two or more females that talk to each other about something other than a man. I'm trying to remember if

Spoiler

Ava talks to Kyoko other than the whisper near the end, which I'm assuming is about Nathan. If that's the case, then I guess it does fail the test.

 

[jacobsever]

If it's not Ex Machina...my guess would be Foxcatcher. It's a new release (within the past 3 months). I can only recall the mother, and the wife in the film. Neither of which ever talk to one another. So that definitely fails the test. And it has a Mondo poster already. Only thing is, it's released by Sony in Canada.

Or possibly the movie Spring. Just came out last week, and the poster from Mondo was released last week as well. It's a love story, and basically only has 2 characters to speak of. There are no two women that talk to each other. Fails on that aspect. It's released on Starz/Anchor Bay in Canada.

Loved Spring, loathed Foxcatcher.
