Superman, the new superhero movie that stars David Corenswet, which released in cinemas this Friday, is literally flying in the air as far the box-office collections are concerned. David has been receiving quite rave reviews for his performance as the superhero who wears a cape and dares to save the world. The film was in the news when the Indian CBFC edited the kissing scene that infuriated fans. They now have another reason to be angry and it has to do with the interval of the movie.
Superman has not one but two intervals in some cinemas in India and a source has spilled the beans as to why this blunder has happened.
‘Superman’ running with two intervals
A source said, “Superman is a 2-hour and 9-minute long film. Usually, the interval occurs when half of the film has been done. In the case of Superman, Warner Bros have added an interval after nearly 80 minutes.”
It added, “A lot is happening before that and it’s going in one flow. Hence, they felt that incorporating an interval point at around an hour would hamper the impact of the nail-biting sequence. Hence, the interval comes once the crucial scene is over.”
The blunder that has left audiences angry
The source continued, “All theatres were also informed about it in advance. Yet, it came to light that several cinemas either didn’t read the interval directive or simply chose to ignore it. They paused and thereby forced an interval at around an hour. What happens is that the unsuspecting viewers have no idea that the studio has already made arrangements.”
“This has angered the viewers. There have been instances where they have confronted the managers at the cinemas. The studio is aware of the issue and once again told the cinemas that they don’t need to force an interval as it already exists. Yet, we are getting reports that it is still happening in some places,” added the anonymous source.
