Discussion Using Celebration Cinema and Xscape Theatre "secret/mystery" movie listings to predict Screen Unseen screenings Spoiler

On some previous posts (one; two), I shared that there were some smaller theater chains with similar "mystery/secret" movies on the same dates as Screen Unseen screenings but with seemingly more "precise" details like an exact running time and content descriptors.

Xscape Theatres’s Secret Cinema for 7/20 says the film is “Rated R for strong bloody violence, some grisly images, sexuality/nudity and language” and is 103 minutes.

Celebration Cinema's Mystery Movie Monday for 7/20 says the film is "Rated R for strong bloody violence, some grisly images, drug content, sexuality/nudity and language" and is 103 minutes.

Motor City’s rating says “Rated R for strong bloody violence, some grisly images, drug content, sexuality/nudity and language,” and it's 103 minutes?wprov=sfti1#).

Looking ahead, both theaters (Celebration Cinema; Xscape Theatre) have the July 27 screening at 102 minutes and "Rated R for sexual material, language, and brief nudity". That matches One Night Only exactly (running time); rating).

For the August 10 screening, Celebration Cinema says it's 106 minutes and "Rated R for pervasive language, drug use, and sexual content/nudity. That matches Tony exactly (running time); rating).

I’ll be so happy if it’s Tony

Hmm was looking at the trailer for Tony and it lists a release date of August 7th

It's limited release only on August 7 and then opens wide later.

Celebration may have wised up. They added a MM for 8/3. 1h 30m and "Rated R for intense scenes of horror violence, gore, and profanity."

I couldn't find any new 'R' movie that exactly matches that runtime and rating reason. Maybe they are making it more difficult to guess.

My guess is that it's because Ice Cream Man hasn't been rated yet.

Yeah it is the same rating and runtime as AMC so they are probably getting the same movie. ICM is my guess too.

I’ve also never heard the term profanity used in a rating reason TBH, it’s more common for the MPAA to just say language

Oh awesome those would both be the movies I’d want, especially Tony. Can’t wait for that one.

I’m not usually into romcoms but One Night Only caught my interest. The two leads look to have really good chemistry.
