in typical 7mate V/O humour
“With a sequel right around the corner, catch up on the identically named… Shaft”
It’s the way he says it, you know?
I’ve never seen the remake. Does it use the music from the original?
Network premiere? Disney Pixar.
Hasn’t been on TV in at least 5 years, much like before Nine aired “The Incredible”.
A discarded ice cream wrapper in the gutter has more worth than this.
“The Devil’s Advocate” (1997) network premiere (?) on 7flix tonight. Formerly always on Nine AFAIK including very recently. From WB.
NB/ Also an “R18+” film, yet Seven have somehow managed to bring it all the way down to “M” for an 8:30pm movie timeslot!
Long absense.
“You’ve Got Mail” (1998) network premiere on 7flix. Formerly always on Nine (AFAIK) and used to get run a lot. From WB
Stylised WB opener in that year, as well as for the movie in an internet dial-up/static theme
Throwback to November 2004 - ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone’ Channel Nine Premiere Promo:
The first film that displayed a copyright notice in the promo on Australian FTA IIRC.
Never understood why Warner Brothers et. al. chose to require networks to show this
Nine have been doing it again recently on all their Walt Disney promos
When Harry Potter movies premiered on TVB Pearl (English-language channel in Hong Kong) a few years ago, a copyright notice was also shown during promos.
Also in NZ.
Maybe a stipulation from JK Rowling to ensure she maintained control/credit over the characters (so she could retcon them on Twitter years later)?
Remembering at this time, Harry Potter was the hottest property in the world so they could pretty much attach anything to the contract and people would agree
