Critics are raving about "The Hateful Eight" & want film audiences to watch the western on the big screen. Tarantino fans have flocked to the 70 millimeter special 100 screenings nabbing $1.9 million on Friday Dec. 25, 2015. "The Revenant" is playing on only 4 screens in New York & L.A. It had grossed a very good $545,000 on Friday.
It is said that "The Hateful Eight" has been uploaded to the website "Putlocker." I searched & it is, but I'd rather watch it on the big screen. There is nothing like a theatrical experience from a director like Tarantino. 70 MM goes way back to when epic films were shown like "Ben Hur" (1959) or "El Cid" (1961). Film audiences packed the theaters for one complete year when "Ben Hur" was released.
