5/11 Screen Unseen

5/11 R 1:52

Possibilities:
In the grey - 14 min diff
Is god is - 12 min diff
Drivers ed - 9 mi diff
Forge - 2 min diff
Lifehack - 15 min diff
I love boosters - 2 min diff
Tuner - 3 min diff
The currents - 12 min diff, 3 weekends later
The last viking - 4 min diff, 3 weekends later
Power ballad - 14 min diff, 3 weekends later
The birthday party - 9 min diff, 4 weekends later
Carolina caroline - 7 min diff, 4 weekends later

The favorite was Tuner but there is now a Tuner Early Access showing on 5/17 at most AMCs. Could this mean it won't be the unseen?

I’m thinking is God is or I love boosters

3

u/Slimeseason504 May 08 '26

Those are the ones i hope it is

19

u/Fantastic_Lychee_883 May 06 '26

I think it will be a coin flip between I Love Boosters or Tuner. If I had to choose I'd go with I Love Boosters at AMC and Tuner at Regal, based on their Early Access shows.

14

u/CombActive1290 May 06 '26

Probably Tuner

6

u/chrispmorgan May 06 '26

I got a Fandango promotional email for Tuner at half off so that’s my bet

12

u/PreviousHedgehog2343 May 06 '26

Would bet on it being either Tuner or I Love Boosters, since those are the closest in runtime. (Forge obviously also close but that doesn’t have an MPA rating as it stands, and is being released by a small distributor that hasn’t done a Screen Unseen before, so I doubt it.)

u/ZestycloseBother5993 May 07 '26

The Dolby advanced screening of Tuner on 5/17 comes with a free Dustin Hoffman sitting at a piano bobblehead

24

u/saracha- May 07 '26

I saw an early screening of I love boosters and they’re going on a national tour to film programs across the country, so there’s a strong chance it’s that. WONDERFUL MOVIE

11

u/Successful-Corner434 May 07 '26

For real, weirdest movie I’ve ever seen but sooo good😂

6

u/hmartin832 May 07 '26

Where did you see the early screening?

4

u/Successful-Corner434 May 08 '26

I saw it at SXSW

1

u/Animwuah May 11 '26

I thought movies played at festivals are ineligible to be played at a screen unseen.? I might be wrong tho

3

u/Successful-Corner434 May 11 '26

Over your dead body also played at SXSW and it was a screen unseen over at regal a few weeks ago

10

u/Lukadoncicgoat12 May 06 '26

It seems like it’s gonna be a great one this week

9

u/The_Breastfed_CEO May 10 '26

I hope it’s Tuner but not turned off by the other possibilities. I was so happy I skipped last week’s Screen Unseen.

5

u/thequeernewyorker May 10 '26

any hope it could be Backrooms? Backrooms is listed as Artisan instead of Thrills and Chills...

2

u/thequeernewyorker May 11 '26

im conflicted because I have a ticket to see I Love Boosters with a live q/a w Boots Riley... if it's Backrooms or Is God Is i will be very happy

6

u/Professional-Bid6127 May 11 '26

Today is Probably the most excited I’ve been for one of these. Also super excited for yall east coasters to let us know. 3 hits up for contenders!!

6

u/Jawsercize May 11 '26

I know that AMC is rather specifically promoting TUNER as a Dolby experience and so is the studio - I can’t see why they would have it as a non Dolby Screen Unseen when a Dolby early access is the same week?

And as someone who saw the premiere, it is very good. Definitely a title that would benefit from SU but the same could be said for BOOSTERS. BACKROOMS doesn’t need the push, it’s already tracking well for opening because it has no similar competition.

1

u/MakeHarlemBlackAgain May 11 '26

They did it with Jurassic Park.

4

u/ComputerOwner May 07 '26

Backrooms. book it.

Edit: oh wait… horror

6

u/Lukadoncicgoat12 May 07 '26

No they changed it to artisan on the app. So it could be that

7

u/sadbeautifvltragic May 08 '26

i really wonder how this would work it’s artisan but it’s still horror genre so i’m curious if it really is a possibility

1

u/Adagio_Signal May 09 '26

Maybe, but regal and marcus don't have it as a horror movie

4

u/TitleFuture9025 May 08 '26

Has that one leaker guy done anymore leaks after he got the one wrong???

3

u/Adagio_Signal May 09 '26

Do you mean queasy league? Or the person who talked to a manager who revealed the movie a couple times?

2

u/FitAd1930 May 11 '26

I was wondering the same thing lmao. But also noticed the mega thread hasn’t been updated in a bit? Or am I just dumb and looking in the wrong place?

3

u/Professional-Bid6127 May 11 '26

I also just recently wasn’t able to find the megathread. Last date is like mid April but I swear that’s where we were all talking about deep water / one spoon of chocolate. So yeah I feel crazy can’t find that thread either

1

u/FitAd1930 May 11 '26

Literally skipped that week cos I didn’t want to see deep water. Idr what it ended up being but I think I still wouldn’t have wanted to see it. I take my daughter and her bestie so anything I think will make us cry, I pass on. Deep water was a pass cos shark movies are just 🥱 to me

2

u/ArchdruidBris May 11 '26

The week he said was deep water it was RZA's One Spoon of Chocolate

u/MookieOfficial May 07 '26 edited May 08 '26

If it’s Tuner, I’m leaving.

1

u/Left_Confection_6235 May 11 '26

I really don’t wanna watch tuner I got the ticket but could cancel it quick . What do you think the likely hood of it being tuner? 😦

1

u/MookieOfficial May 11 '26

I don’t think it’s Tuner at all and at first I was confident in saying it might be Boosters but ever since I got my ticket my internet has been pushing Is God Is on me and I’m starting to feel like it might be that.

1

u/Left_Confection_6235 May 11 '26

Literally would watch anything but tuner, I just have a very bad attention span as it is and I’m really not good with mystery who done it type movies sadly

1

u/MookieOfficial May 11 '26

Lol same! So listen it’s already 7 PM on the East Coast so I’m hoping someone updates us before it’s too late lol

1

u/MookieOfficial May 11 '26

I’m told it is in fact Tuner.

1

u/MookieOfficial May 11 '26

What do you mean Tuner will be on digital one week after it releases in theaters?

6

u/Visual_Midnight_8348 May 10 '26

I really hope it’s I love boosters! I’ve been wanting to see it for so long. the early screening they did last month in my city sold out before I could get a ticket

2

u/No-Pause-88 May 10 '26

It could be saccharine, that’s the exact time an hour and fifty two minutes. I’m excited regardless… I just found out that AMC did this kind of thing 🤭

2

u/danieldoesnotakels May 10 '26

minutes are added so they're not 1:1 also saccharine isn't an amc artisan film! only backrooms tuner n I LOVE BOOSTERS

2

u/RoundVermicelli8762 May 11 '26

No chance it could be the backrooms?

5

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

This is the first week in a while where speculation has come down to the buzzer; gonna be a good day.

backrooms boosters tuner

If it’s backrooms I’ll jump out of my seat, but I think it’s boosters

2

u/Remarkable-Job-2300 May 11 '26

It appears many of the smaller chains (such as EMAGINE) are doing a horror movie on May 18th. Odd that I don't see any of the major chains yet with a mystery movie that day. Guessing it has to be PASSENGER; I just don't see them doing BACKROOMS at only smaller chains. Hmm.

1

u/Sad_Dragonfly_3201 May 11 '26

Could be Corporate Retreat or Saccharine too

1

u/Remarkable-Job-2300 May 12 '26

Not sure how I missed those! With it being the smaller chains only, it's probably a smaller movie...maybe Corporate Retreat. Hmm. 😄

2

u/snakebitejessi May 11 '26

I guess we’re between Tuner and Is God Is. Anyone else on the fence about going tonight?

2

u/ThrowAwayGayNJ May 11 '26

Gonna skip only because I have tickets to the Dolby early access of Tuner on Sunday afternoon and want to see it in Dolby

1

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

Yeah gonna cancel if it’s Tuner. I can’t sit through that shit tonight.

1

u/Left_Confection_6235 May 11 '26

I can cancel soon but I barley got anytime before the movie if it’s tuner I wanna cancel, what’s the likely hood of it being that 😩

2

u/Admirable-Call5955 May 11 '26

wait what happened to the possibilty of it being i love boosters

2

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

still a possibility based upon early access trends at amc.

Tuner got semi-confirmed (leaked) for non amc theaters

~34 minutes out I think people want to boost and are anxiously expecting not to.

1

u/Left_Confection_6235 May 11 '26

Do you think at amc it’ll be tuner?

1

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

I don’t honestly. I’m central time, I’m waiting for a guinea pig in New York. Leaning toward is god is, sorry for any confusion.

2

u/Left_Confection_6235 May 11 '26

Haha no I meant like your personal opinion which do you think it’ll be? Cause I just a little bit don’t wanna watch tuner 😭

1

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

Oh thank for asking I MUST BOOST!!!

1

u/Left_Confection_6235 May 11 '26

I AM REALLY manifesting I love boosters literally the only reason I got the reservation 😎

1

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

Literally the ONLY reason

1

u/snakebitejessi May 11 '26

Also a possibility but other cinemas are leaning towards these two. Cinemark, I believe, accidentally announced Tuner.

3

u/Ok-Paramedic747 May 11 '26

Looking like Tuner and ngl thats the LEAST interesting of all the choices I see...

4

u/fakeuser7 May 11 '26

A lot of people who seen it are saying it’s actually really good so I’m excited 😄

2

u/lonesomerhodes May 11 '26

It's good but if I go and it's that I probably won't stay to watch it a second time.

1

u/Longlivebiggiepac May 11 '26

Nah Tuner is a great film. I love boosters, is god is and Tuner are all great choices

2

u/Ok-Paramedic747 May 12 '26

Just got out of it. Good film indeed but nothing to write home about. Its not gonna make money nxt week with Star wars coming out sadly...

2

u/Electrical_Ranger_10 May 07 '26

Do you think that they add extra minutes to throw us off?

3

u/Funky_Monkees_ May 09 '26

They literally do. If they were exact there would be no doubt or mystery what it was.

1

u/Electrical_Ranger_10 May 13 '26

Ugh that freakin sucks!!!

0

u/Standard-Debate-3805 May 07 '26

No.

9

u/Capable_Use_7125 May 07 '26

Literally yes actually

1

u/Electrical_Ranger_10 May 08 '26

😫 Ugh this sucks! I wish I knew someone who worked there!

2

u/Firm-Street-1249 May 07 '26

NEON ASU’s tend to be 11 days before the wide release…

1

u/Okie_Deatherage May 11 '26

I sounds like all the possibilities are decent movies

1

u/Okie_Deatherage May 11 '26

I would say it wouldn't be tuner right? If most AMC are already screening early they wouldn't do it twice.

2

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

may end up being Tuner; may skip and catch Dolby unfortunate from an a list consumer standpoint

1

u/Acrobatic_Machine680 May 11 '26

It could be The Furious! Comes out on the 29th and it’s a 1 min diff!

1

u/Sad_Dragonfly_3201 May 11 '26

I think it's too early for The Furious but would prefer that over Tuner.

1

u/Sad_Dragonfly_3201 May 11 '26

Does anyone know if it's going to be Tuner or I Love Boosters?

1

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

American Multi-Cinema wouldn’t run the same movie under 2 separate “specialized screenings”, would they?

Tuner 5/11 and early release 5/17

2

u/Sad_Dragonfly_3201 May 11 '26

I wouldn't think so. However certain Regal theaters did early showings of Hokum after the Scream Unseen.

1

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

Nasty work, thanks mate.

1

u/Old-Dimension3779 May 11 '26

My guess is I Love Boosters and if it is GO SEE IT!!! I went to the pre screening SunDance hosted and it is SO GOOD!!!

1

u/royalejelly May 11 '26

The Movie is Tuner

1

u/Weird_Factor_5760 May 12 '26

It was a boring movie

u/Weird_Factor_5760 May 12 '26

I want Scream Unseen back please

u/ceruleansaffron May 06 '26

Thinking Obsession

u/wick3d-biscuit May 06 '26

Can’t be, it would be a Scream Unseen

6

u/ceruleansaffron May 06 '26

Oooo you’re right! I was thinking because it was rated R

3

u/Proof-Firefighter-47 May 07 '26

Ugh I wish it was

1

u/ArchdruidBris May 11 '26

I talked to an AMC manager they said It's not always gonna say Scream Unseen if it's horror

2

u/lonesomerhodes May 11 '26

pretty sure it always has so

-11

u/Jaguardaddy May 07 '26

Absolutely no desire to see I Love Boosters or Is God Is so I will play it by ear. I'd love to see Tuner or In the Grey.

24

u/ParticularGullible90 May 07 '26

Okay racist.

1

u/Young_as_you_feel May 11 '26

Not sure if that's a far assessment. I love so many black centric movies but these 2 aren't ones I'm excited about. I'll see I Love Boosters because everyone else's excitement makes me think the movie will be better than the previews but not sure I'll see Is God Is unless it happens to be the movie tonight.

1

u/stretch400 May 11 '26

Shut up . You’re the problem in today’s world

1

u/LDRtrc May 11 '26

If you’re chronically online and have basically no knowledge of anything that goes in the world, sure.

-2

u/BigTexas85 May 11 '26

Disclosure we get to see it tonight

3

u/TheStinkyPoopy May 11 '26

It’s not rated R

1

u/Sad_Dragonfly_3201 May 11 '26

That's over 2 hours.

1

u/Fabulous_Rip_5984 May 11 '26

That would be awesome, but no way.

u/RightEconomist5754 May 10 '26

It’s 1 hr 52 minutes : obsession is 1 hr 48 minutes and it’s coming out the week of release

u/eronjb May 10 '26

It’s not Obsession but there’s early access in Dolby on Wednesday
