The eight or so previews I saw prior to Blackhat were indeed event films. More than a few of my interviews have suggested that's where we're headed: big pictures that have to be seen on the big screen. From the Seventh Son with Jeff Bridges to the often-moved Jupiter Ascending, let's hope the filmmakers don't mistake ambition or exercises for storytelling.
