A few days ago, I was in dismay upon learning that my theater (or any alternative theater options in my area) wouldn’t be showing The Shape of Water on December 8.
However,
I recently discovered something. I looked up the official website for the movie and came across this
You’ll notice that the December 8 release date is only for specific cities followed by additional cities on the 15th. But what I want everyone to notice is the nationwide release on December 22. So, if you were like me and dismayed that your local theater did not list Shape of Water as the release for this upcoming weekend, there may still be hope. We can save our distresses for the 22nd, which by that date will hopefully have a more definitive answer as to whether or not the general public will have access viewing this film.
To reiterate: December 8 is the limited release for selected cities. The nationwide release is scheduled for December 22.
If you know someone that’s interested in seeing this movie, but doesn’t live in the listed cities above, please show them this post. And if there are any inaccuracies present here or new information comes out that discredits this post, please add to it so that people will be aware. I encourage all information that may help people to see The Shape of Water to be shared.
I know this is a highly anticipated film for many, myself included, and I just want to make sure that we are all aware of this release schedule so as to plan accordingly. And for anyone who lives in an area that will be showing this movie either tomorrow or next week, I sincerely hope you give this movie a chance.
Thank you for reading.
I want to add: if your city is not on this list, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s not showing! There are at least 3 theatres in the Denver area that started showing it by December 8, so be sure to check before you resign yourself to having to wait!
so i was fucking around with @saltandlimes in about mid-october, as we do, and the subject of parody songs came up. i happened to mention that in my family, christmas carol parodying is a semi-professional sport. “do tell,” she said.
about ten minutes later the words for this were done. about ten minutes after that, i went, “hold on. this needs to be a thing.”
i figured i could handle the music, but i couldn’t do this alone. so i pulled every last shred of nerves together and messaged all my favourite kylux cartoonists. i nearly cried when everyone wanted to join in on this nonsense. i couldn’t believe it. and the art i got just knocked my socks off.
@wyomingnot supplied invaluable vidding advice. @pidgy-draws and @pixiepunch supplied moral support. and my lovely husband put up with my voice acting.
so without further ado, oh god what is this how did i get here i am not good with computer.

talk to me about deadpool being so impressed by peter parker’s parkour skills… tell me how fucking cool he finds peter’s acrobatics… like all heroes tend to have a degree of being able to do flips and semi-acrobatic stuff (deadpool included), but tell me just how fun it is to watch peter’s incredible control and his balance, his flexibility and his core muscle strength… tell me about all the multiple flips and somersaults he does… tell me
