There was another test screening of THE OLD GUARD 2 and
All I will say (because I can't say anything and I hate spoilers so I would never divulge pre-release info) is that if this film is completed before the end of the year, it would be as miraculous as the existence of immortals.
I've been to test screenings and they always warn the attendees that it is unfinished and maybe the lighting isn't correct or there is placeholder music, yadda yadda yadda. This time they showed a brief production reel to show how some of the scenes will be fixed and showed some of the stand-in footage so that it wouldn't be jarring for the audience. But there was a LOT of stand-in footage and storyboarding in lieu of actual scenes.
I've been to many test screenings where there are several scenes where they have the stand-in footage or unrendered GGI, but never the extent of this one. I was chatting afterwards with someone else who was in the screening and he said he too had never been to a test screening with so much footage still undone.
The guy who sat behind me went to a test screening last week for another film (THE BOOK OF CLARENCE) and despite starting out by saying, "I shouldn't be saying anything with the NDA and all", proceeds to tell the entire film to his seatmates, and due to proximity, me. He loved it FWIW.) and he said that that film was pretty much complete just that they have to erase the wires from the wirework and the stunt pads that were still visible. I would be fine with that level of incompletion.
Of course there is more to TOG2 than action scenes so it's understandable to test to try to get a feel for audiences' reaction to the story and plotting so that things can be fixed in the edit, if needed. Yet, because this is a property so reliant on the action and CGI that not having that completed or, at least, further along in completion, or having stand-in ADR (when someone else does the dialogue so that they can then get the actor to do the ADR later so you're hearing voices obviously not belonging to the cast.)
, is a big enough distraction that I am curious as to how people reviewed the film afterwards. There was a test screening a month and 5 days ago and I'm curious as the feedback that came from that screening.
But, c'est la vie. I can't wait to see the finished project. Whenever that is.

Hi! Do you happen to have the photo of the TOG cast in Marrakesh? I remember almost all the main cast members were there, walking in the street toward the person who took the photo. Marwan’s fiancée, Nora, was there too.
I do not have it to hand, but maybe a follower does? Anyone have this photo (which I can see very clearly in my head, but that helps no one).

Ghosted - Marwan Cut
I would like to thank this film for making things very easy for me. I don't usually do it this quick. But they really... really helped me out. I'd like to thank the filmmakers for catering to me, specifically.
So: Marwan cut of Ghosted (2023) here we are! He looks great, he's English, the stylists said yeah his hair is going to be fantastic, what's not to love?
Total length, including the cinematic experience (a few seconds of credits) is 6 minutes and 6 seconds, from a full film length of 2 hours. The Marwan part is just over 5 minutes.
Bon appetit!
