Oui, Oui

The last two movies I've seen (Paris, je t'aime and Mon meilleur ami) have been playing at Landmark Theatres, which I was surprised to learn is part of "a vertically-integrated group of media properties co-owned by Todd Wagner and Mark Cuban"

They've got two financing/production companies - 2929 Productions is focused on "interesting and thought-provoking feature films" and HDNet Films is all about "narrative and documentary features to be shot on high-definition video."

As for distribution, they own Magnolia Pictures and the aforementioned 61-theater chain, as well as the HDNet cable channel.

I'm not sure why knowing that he owns a media conglomerate makes me like Cuban more, but it does...

  • How did you like Paris je t'aime? I thought about seeing that.

  • When I visited Hannah, we went to see "The Ten" at a Landmark theater... It was pretty funny, and then it got kind of weird, and then it was really weird... Overall, I think you might like it..
