Anything surprising here? I am very much looking forward to this lineup, but no Scorsese, Malick or Beatty? A little disappointing, but not the end of the world. We are likely going to have a great year this year. Also the Director's Fortnight lineup looks just great with new films by Kim Nguyen, Jodorowsky, Paul Schrader among many many many more. The special screenings this year will be Spielberg's The BFG, Jodie Foster's Money Monster and Shane Black's The Nice Guys, really just no complaints on my part. Glad I'll be there on May 11th.

Oh, Sebastian Stan … he tells Variety that walking onto the set of "The Batman: Part II" gives him the feeling that he might be making "The Godfather: Part II." His exact words.
