    Wednesday #s: MILLERS (3.175m Estimate)

    in Numbers and Data

    Posted

    I put this in the weekend thread-but a lot of kids started school this week here. It starts earlier and earlier every year! We use to be the only state that started in August. Before long school will start in July! :P:lol: 

     

    Yeah school started this week here and last week even in other parts of the country. Summer weekday's are done.

    Star Trek making it to 225 this week makes me happy. Not as high as I was hoping for, but its good legs are undeniable. Now just give 3 a good release date in 2016 (50th anniversary) and it will do numbers people were expecting STiD to achieve. Lets not forget its by far the highest rated big summer movie by audiences on RT, 92%.

    King Kong did 332m internationally in 2005 without 3D and IMAX, but had Peter Jackson who was the biggest director at the time and an iconic character. I think that with 8 years of inflation and 3D/IMAX plus expanded markets, that should be a goal for this film. It wont do big numbers in europe like Kong did (52m in england for example), but china (12m for kong) and other markets that are a lot bigger now could help close that gap.

    Thursday numbers: DM2-24.5, TLR-9.85, Heat-6.35 (BOM)

    James Cameron Says 'Man of Steel' & 'Iron Man 3' Didn't Need 3D

    IM3 had the worst, biggest waste of time and money 3D to me. I felt so ripped off after (aside from the fact that the movie was my biggest letdown of the year). Since then I have only bothered STiD 3D. STiD is how you do 3D conversions, it was fantastic and totally worth it IMO. Unless I read great things about the 3D beforehand (either made in or a fantastic post conversion), I'm not wasting my money.

     

    Too many people have been burnt by bad 3D.

    Can we stop with the DC/Marvel fanboy wars? They're exhausting to look at and just brings a shitty mood to threads. Is there a thread where they can just shit all over each other instead of bringing it everywhere?

     

    Looking around my area showtimes are dramatically decreasing for NYSM, TiTE, Fast 6, and Star Trek. They will probably be all but gone from most theaters here next weekend when of course two more movies come out. If not, then July 19ths 4 fucking movies that nobody asked for will (aside from The Conjuring which looks awesome).

    Despicable Me 2

    Amstar 12 - Lake Mary

    Lake Mary, FL

    Tuesday, July 2nd 10pm

    40% full (more adults than kids)

     

    Trailers: 

     

    Smurfs 2: kids laughed

     

    Turbo: some laughs

     

    Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2: big audience reaction from both adults and kids. This will break the september record, don't be surprised. Looks great!

     

    Planes: not much of a reaction, was that Dane FUCKING Cook as the lead voice actor?

     

    Enders Game: no reaction, looks expensive

     

    Free Birds: laughs from kids and adults, I really like the premise of this. Impressive.

     

    Film:

     

    It was good. Its not as good as the original, and certainly can't compare to Pixar's best, but it was a lot of fun. The minions and Agnes stole the show, anytime they were on screen you couldn't help but smile. Everybody loved it, very funny, lots of laughs. The CG was astounding, so bright and colorful. It looked just fantastic. They had a lot of 3D money shots during the movie, I could just tell this would look great in 3D. We saw it in 2D because it was so cheap, but knowing what I know now we would have went with 3D. If you like 3D, go see it in that format. You wont regret it.

     

    It's always great when you leave a movie happy and in a great mood. Don't expect some animated masterpiece, just expect a good movie and a good time.

    December 2015 is the obvious choice. A month after the two giant november releases, plenty of time to let them run their course before MoS2 comes out. WB needs to come out and claim MoS2's spot as the big december release, December 18th makes total sense. Only others things currently are Alvin on December 11th and KFP3 December 23rd.  It will break The Hobbits december record and then get very strong christmas and new years weekend holds as they both are Friday's that year. The legs will not be cut by insane competition. Its obvious WB! 

     

    Don't anybody say fucking Avatar 2 either, there is no chance that will before 2016.
