I thought this was a pitch to show the Spielberg flick at SF/49. May not be a bad idea. The film has gone thru a lot of re-assessment in the years since it came out.

     Youre right: it's a terrible idea!

     Theres nothing to reassess: the movie sucked then & it sucks now!
     Are you on some sort of mission to find the lousiest movies possible?  Because running junk like AI is not the way to build an audience.

I have seen the future, and it is sucky digital....

is the 13nth movie going to be a surprise? if so, you will need to do a better job of concealing the title than was done for cloverfield. i recall it being the opener but half the audience knew beforehand. several people said the title right before the opening scene.
dave if you are listening : you should hit pause right before the opening seen of any surprise feature and keep the audience in suspence and let the speculation flow.
