Horror supplier Blumhouse’s annual “Halloween Midway” celebration will serve terror triple M3gan,,,,, Annabelleand horse Back to the theater. but M3gan The screening will be accompanied by a technological twist, which is ironic, as the film is about seemingly benevolent technological innovations, but very, very horrifying. It was also tied to a head, and seemed to hopefully encourage moviegoers to pull out their phones, which is a nightmare to consider.
Here is a speech from the Blumhouse press release: “Blumhouse works with Meta to make the Meta second screen experience, the film companion, which is theatres across the country. M3gan In the theater’s chatbots, they will get content, trivia and real-time behind-the-scenes information. ”
Meta’s Omar Zayat describes these features as “things designed to bring audiences back to the theater”, but in fact, the person in the seat next to you lit up their phone screen while interacting with the chatbot. In the movie? We love the next fan as well as the next one, we love the behind-the-scenes tidbits and trivia, but this might save something better for the family viewing experience – you know, you know, without ruining the enjoyment of other moviegoers around you, who just want to watch a girl who watches killer robots in style.
However, as the press release further points out, “The movie companion can only be used among moviegoers in the theater and is created by DM’s Instagram account @M3GAN account to begin the experience. The entire experience is designed to leverage Meta’s capabilities to enhance and upgrade the “second screen” viewing experience.”
Let’s face it, the term “second screen viewing experience” is to say “people can’t turn off their phones for two hours now physically and emotionally to be completely focused on the movie.” There’s a real “if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em, and advertise to ’em here too.” Here’s the spirit, isn’t it?
