  1. I'm not eagerly anticipating Lego Movie but I do admit it looks fairly fun. Don't know if I'll manage to see it in theaters or not.
  2. Everything out now could hold really well next weekend. The only wide release is I, Frankenstein which doesn't strike me as something that will do all that well. Lack of new competition might help everything have smaller than normal post holiday drops.
  3. I'm thinking somewhere between Monsters Inc adjusted ($364 million) and Toy Story 2 adjusted ($390 million) sounds about right for Frozen. As a matter of fact, if it lands around $380 million, I'm assuming taking out 3D would put it around $350 million or so in terms of sheer tickets. That would have it in the same attendance area as Toy Story 3 which I'd have to say is a pretty huge accomplishment.
  4. I had a feeling that Ride Along would be big. Kevin Hart has been getting huge over the past couple of years (and still growing in popularity) and Ice Cube has had a good little resurgence thanks to Jump Street.
  5. That's pretty damn good for Jack Ryan, especially considering the holiday and probable audience overlapping with breakout The Lone Survivor. And Ride Along does big as expected.
  6. Wahlberg is the man. He can be a great actor when given the right material and right director.
  7. This sort of reminds me of Frozen's second weekend when after it's Friday number it looked like it would do $28-29 million tops for the weekend but ended up with $31 million. I guess it shows never to underestimate family movies on Saturday. Also Lone Survivor is an early winter beast. We'll see how it's legs hold up, but everyone I know who has seen it loved it. I think it could end up with over $125 million in the long run.
  8. Fuck yeah, Lone Survivor! Glad to see Mark break out of his usual $20 million OW range and climb into $30 million... and will come very close to $40 million. Awesome.
  9. Pain & Gain is probably my favorite Bay movie and definitely one of the most underrated films of 2013. I have a blast watching it each viewing.
  10. Welcome to the forums, Godot. Glad to see you starting in the most interesting thread in weeks. Also Lone Survivor is winning this weekend hands down. If it doesn't I will eat a live starfish.
  11. All my friends loved it and some even wanted to see it again. Just proves that the Cinemascore is usually complete fucking bullshit.
  12. If anything, landing near or topping Toy Story 2 adjusted would be great.
  13. That's awesome for CF. It joins the ranks of Two Towers and Dead Mans Chest when adjusting. Very nice.
  14. Great number for Wolf. Glad to see it getting a spot up top for once. And Frozen passed $300 million!
  15. I believe we call that "uncanny valley" as far as animation is concerned. Look up "Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within" for an even better example.
  16. Sorry guys I don't really see anything groundbreaking here. The standards for the rating you described are pretty much exactly the same as the R rating. Only difference being yours is 16+ rather than 17+. Now if it were 12+ or something completely uncensored, we'd be talking.
  17. I quite enjoyed this movie. Plot is on the light side per usual, but that's okay. Bay keeps the movie entertaining. It was better than RotF in pretty much every way. Action sequences were all fantastic, and this has probably the best CGI I have ever seen in a live action tentpole. I give it a solid "B". Comparitively I would give Transformers 1 a "B+" and RotF a "C".
  18. I'm still not sold on Frozen topping DM2, but if it has a great hold this weekend and holds up well against The Nut Job next weekend it very well might.
