  1. Does anyone know what the record is for the biggest drop off from one film to the next in a franchise? Alice Through the Looking Glass has to have a shot at that, right? Going from $334M to most likely under $100M is hilariously awful. I can't think of anything that has even come close to that. 

  2. When the hell is The Last Witch Hunter supposed to take place? Like all over the ads they have Vin looking clean shaven in what looks like a modern day setting, and then on the poster outside this premium theater at the shopping center close by it shows him all bearded up in period clothing sitting on the throne of what looks like a rejected set from Game of Thrones. And yet I can't even be moved to care. Gonna guess audiences at large feel the same way.

    I vaguely remember from the trailer that Vin's character is immortal and his centuries (millennia?) of hunting witches is what's made him so skilled at it. So his character was rocking a beard hundreds of years ago but the story mostly takes place in present day.

  3. Fantastic Four weekdays were bigger than Ant-Man here, coming from an equal OW, and it ended with a bigger 7 day total lol. Meanwhile Rogue Nation is going basilisk today (opening day here) and Minions is on track to become the 2nd biggest movie ever behind Avatar. It will end up with 3 times more than what Despicable Me 2 did here lol.  

     

    I'm assuming you meant going ballistic, right? Unless Rogue Nation is sneaking around the Chamber of Secrets and petrifying the other movies.

  4. Well, I feel very, very alone in my feelings toward this film, but I hated it. I gave it a D just because the visuals were all right. As mattmav45 said, the child death for Bullock's character just felt like a forced contrivance to make you care about her character. I don't think that Bullock is a good enough actress to carry a whole movie by herself. I'm baffled at what everyone sees in it. What weak back story there was felt like nothing more than an excuse just to have a bunch of special effects that weren't all that revolutionary. I'm totally fine with differing opinions and I would never criticize someone for liking Gravity, but I just don't get it.

  5. I'm a bit odd in that I'm far more likely to cry during really happy, triumphant moments than ones of sorrow. That said, the following movies have made me tear up, though only one reduced me to a blubbering mess.

     

    127 Hours

    Elf

    Rudy

    Titanic (Still the only movie to make me outright bawl)

    October Sky

    Toy Story 3

    King Kong

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

     

    I think there might be a few others, but those are the only ones I can think of right now.

  6. Wow, I'm glad I checked this thread; somehow I had completely missed that trailer up until now. I think Book 2 looks great. The trailer itself was beautiful. All instrumental and showing off gorgeous animation. And I think the spirits look pretty cool too. I definitely can't wait for the new season.
