I was going to wait until Christmas Day to see F2 for the 3rd time, but Cineplex Odeon sent me an email letting me know from Dec. 6-11 all movies in all formats are just 50% of the usual number of Scene points to see them.
I hoard my Scene points (I just used some to see the new Star Wars in VIP 19+ on it's opening Saturday so I can order a pitcher of beer and watch the movie in comfort), but I can't pass up a bargain, especially on a dead weekend like this , so I just bought a ticket for 1:45 tomorrow.
It looks like people like a bargain, it's already over 40% sold (103 of 236 seats sold).

So, roughly $34.1m 2nd Friday. A wee bit under the early estimates, but still a gorgeous number.
Interesting to note that without the $8.5m from Thursday previews the first Friday did $33.7m, which means the 2nd Friday actually increased.❄️😎❄️

❄️❄️So glad F2 is doing so well. With those monster Tuesday and Wednesday numbers and a total that will be near or over $300m by the end of the weekend it looks like the odds of finishing over $500m domestic have gone up considerably.❄️❄️
I'm definitely going to see F2 again this weekend, as well as Knives out.😎

I've been anticipating F2 for years now, but also had a little fear that they would muck it up with a sub par money grab of a sequel.
Thankfully F2 is a worthy sequel. Beautifully animated, a solid story and songs that really worked better in context than just listening to them before the movie released.
I'd say Olaf gets the most improved character award for F2, he had some really funny stuff, especially his "stage acting" telling of a story.❄️❄️❄️

I'll be there opening day and I'll be sneaking in some Twinkies. 😋
Whoever is in charge of marketing this movie should contact Hostess for a promotional tie in and have theaters sell twinkies at the concession stand, at least for opening day, or opening weekend.😎

Absolutely amazing that a little $20m movie about an assassin coming out of retirement would spawn a 4 movie franchise that has vastly increased with each movie (OW's of $14m, $30m and $57m).
I remember after the first one people were hoping $88m WW would be enough to get a sequel, but it was by no means guaranteed, and now we are headed to a 4th awesome installment.😁

Just starting to see TV spots for this.
It looks pretty good and the TV spots are really playing up the fact it's still 100% at RT (50-0 so far)
This looks like a good movie to see between John Wick 3 and Godzilla 2.😎

That Empire cover is just pure awesomeness.

It must have expanded in NA, I was just looking at weekend showtimes and it's in several theaters near me this week.
I'll probably check it out, along with another viewing of Alita. 😁

I am so looking forward to this. I haven't been this excited for a movie since the first Frozen where I pretty much spent all my time in the Frozen thread, followed by the South Korea and Japan threads.
It helped that they put out one hell of a trailer to start the ball rolling.
I have little doubt it will beat Frozen's domestic total, but I'm not sure about WW as that ridiculously huge Japan number will be hard to approach.

Just to see what other stuff Jessica Rothe has coming up I looked her up on IMDB and noticed something rather odd.
In HDD her character is Tree Gelbman, but in HDD2U her character is Flower Gelbmans?😮

I saw this today and went in with low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised.
There was a little dark humor in it and I actually really liked the little bit every time someone died in the movie.
I definitely enjoyed it more than his last few movies.

I loved the first one and I really like the trailer for the 2nd. It looks like good goofy fun that takes itself just serious enough.
I hope this does well so we get to see more of Jessica Rothe, she needs to happen.

The Max trailer was fine, but the Chloe trailer is far superior, though I admit Chloe and Gidget were my favorites from the first movie.😺

How is it that a huge Emma Stone fan like myself is only just now finding out she has a topless scene in The favorite?
It just seems like it's so out of left field as Emma is someone I was absolutely sure would never do nudity in any way, shape, or form as she talked about how her dad wouldn't speak to her for 2 weeks after she did an episode of Medium earlier in her career with implied nudity (she was topless, but she was covering herself with her arms).
I was always going to see this, but I have to admit my interest is piqued just a bit more now.😎

Yo just noticed you're from Vancouver! What part of the city if I may ask?
Hmm, I guess I haven't updated my profile. I lived near 1st and Commercial but have since moved to Richmond.

I personally haven't posted much in weekend threads or any threads in the past few months. Mostly a factor of having a toddler at home, I watch movies 3 months after they release.
I've been pretty quiet here for about the same period of time, but in my case it's more that there haven't been any movies I really gave a damn about.
The latter portion of this year has been so dull, but at least the holiday season coming up shows some promise.

Last Jedi springs to mind, awful movie reflected by audiences scores followed by a solo bomb and now the opposite where people realise critics reviews are meaningless against the people’s opinions and money vote
Yeah, I just looked that up and it was a big 46% discrepancy, but in the other direction (Critics 91% vs. Audience 45%). Venom still has the crown with a 57% difference.😁

Out of curiosity, has anyone ever seen such a large disconnect between the critics score and the audience score at RT?
Critics score: 32% (4.5/10)
Audience score: 89% (4.4/5)
That's a ridiculous 57% difference, easily the largest gap I can ever recall seeing at RT.

The only thing I remember from the first one is a young Amanda Seyfried in a cute bikini.
Lily, your move !
Actually, it was a 1 piece bathing suit, but still, Amanda looked gorgeous in it. It's also the only time I can recall seeing a bit of color on her, usually she's very pale (in a good way)
I plan to see this tomorrow.

He basically admitted he did it to screw the score. RT really shouldn't allow that. Armond White I believe got kicked off for a while for his antics.
Someone at AW actually went through all his reviews over the last 10 years, over 1300 total, and this is the only time he gave a B- where it was counted as rotten, every other B- he gave was counted as fresh.

So this self proclaimed "Smartest film critic in the world" seems to be another one of those contrarian critics. Someone pointed out some of his other recent reviews:
Dunkirk "F"
Wonder Woman "F"
Logan "F"
Baby Driver "C-"
Last year he gave rotten reviews to La La Land, Moonlight, Silence, Nocturnal Animals, Lion, Jackie, Personal Shopper, Toni Erdmann, Loving, etc.
He also has the dubious honor of giving Toy Story 3 its first rotten review in 2010 (it ended up 287/4)

The streak is over after 196 consecutive positive reviews.
The 197th review from Cole Smithey is a B- (also mentioned 3 stars out of 5, which is 60% and should be borderline Fresh, but is considered Rotten)
From the looks of it he is a self professed critic who's credentials are he has his own film critic website.

Frozen II 971m OS 1.44B WW
in International Box Office
Posted
The low end for China is probably too low now that the extension has been announced (it's at $106m right now) and it will play until Jan. 20. Maybe $117m-$126m?
