Nolan’s The Odyssey Triggers Imax 70mm Ticket Frenzy

Demand for Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey has fans snapping up Imax 70mm tickets in New York, Los Angeles, and London, with new showings added as screenings sell out. Only 25 U.S. and 41 global venues offer the format, which is partly why tickets disappear within hours; the film—shot entirely with Imax cameras and opening to strong numbers—could see the format’s run extended, but Imax’s next commitment, Dune: Part Three, may limit how long The Odyssey dominates the premium screens.

Military to screen troops for low testosterone, prompting medical caution

The US plans to require routine testosterone screening for male service members aged 30 and up, with the option to start testosterone replacement therapy if low levels and symptoms are present. Medical experts caution that aggressive screening can cause misdiagnoses, TRT carries risks like infertility and other side effects, and large‑scale military monitoring could be logistically challenging. The Pentagon has offered few details on implementation, and clinicians emphasize treatment should be tied to both low testosterone and clinical symptoms.

Marquee joke prompts Amazon to pull Melania screenings in Lake Oswego

A Lake Oswego theater canceled screenings of the Melania documentary after Amazon objected to a marquee joke based on a Sun Tzu quote. The theater had promoted the film with the line “TO DEFEAT YOUR ENEMY, YOU MUST KNOW THEM. MELANIA STARTS FRIDAY,” which Amazon reportedly did not find funny. The marquee was later updated with a different joke about the screenings being canceled. The documentary, which cost about $40 million for rights and roughly $35 million for marketing and debuted with about $7 million in ticket sales, will still stream on Prime Video after its theatrical run, and the theater plans to resume with other films next week.
