A docu about MB's quest to build a water park What comes around, goes around

Correct, Mission Impossible. [*]As producer he's even more of a showrunner. [*]He'll likely be (only) producing Trek 3 but I'll still consider him to be one of the movers and shakers -behind the scenes. [*]Has one person ever been behind 3 (or more) franchises at the same time? Incredible.

Is this a good thing?

Good news.

Agreed. Plus there might be Episode VII reshoots in 2015 when ST would theoretically be shooting.

I'm intrigued. Imagine if George Lucas never got to make Star Wars. I can see a doc like this getting made along the same lines.

JJA will be done filming Episode VII this summer. There's a small chance he'll be available to film Star Trek. It's amazing. This man is involved in 3 major franchises. Insane!

It wasn't meant to entertain

That drop had better correct itself this weekend or it may not.

climate change on the coldest day in recorded history, it was so cold that....

Ah ok, thanks. Pretty much guarantees all 3 movies in the series will get the light of day.

God's not Dead's opening weekend boxoffice take is a pleasant surprise. Didn't see that coming at all.

That $40 million marketing budget seems a bit low. Wonder where they pulled that number out of.. If these numbers are correct then we're looking at a $125million total cost and they start making their money back after about $250 million in boxoffice receipts. Various distribution deals as the article suggests mean they are already well on their way.

I agree. This movie is Oscar bait.

I don't think The Lego Movie will retain a cult following to make the sequel much more successful than the first. The drops have averaged 31%. $210m

I love Peanuts! I plan to be there opening weekend!

You mean like Cars 2, Finding Dory, and Monsters U?

The Incredibles 2 fo sho

Robocop. It wasn't great but it was better than I expected based off WOM and reviews. I was slightly pleasantly surprised.

Both will do well at the boxoffice but I think Amazing-Spiderman will outgross Captain America: Winter Soldier so I expect Cap will move since they will have proven the early April timeslot does work.

I wouldn't go as far as absurd but I agree that fans weren't necessarily clamoring for a FN sequel. Fancy and filmscholar - do you blame Disney for the rash of sequels and 3D re-release gimmicks (something I predicted would happen when they bought Pixar years ago)?
