It was but its been collapsing for years and it will only continue to worsen as cable cutting becomes more common. It's literally the reason their stock is going down -
ESPN is a poison pill in the disney stock
-
It's not twilight, every big movie is somewhat four quadrant but its main audience is younger adult women id say 15-30 they are the ones most excited for the movie
-
I mean this has the same fan rush factor. It's a remake of a highly popular film
-
Doesn't that mean it will be frontloaded
-
Those are OW extrapolations unless you are saying this will do 400OW
-
Why the people most excited are late teen or 20 something girls
-
It is not really a family movie more YA and teen centric
-
I think it will play like a Maleficent on steriods or a Hunger games movie, it is definitely not a kid movie or an animation so I'm confused why it people play think it will play like one. There is a committed fanbase for the film that will rush out and did so.

We are separate don't be obtuse in the GA no one is talking about it, it will do big numbers internationally but the 3d trend is well dead by now I would say around 500 Dom at most 1 billion OS
-
Dude no one even thinks about Avatar anymore it was big it was huge it started a trend let it die we have had no evidence that they are not even making another one beyond a few James Cameron quotes and reports it is years away at the earliest and it's already been 8

This kind of knee jerk reaction is a problem having a problem with one film winning is not racist just because the film is a black film. I loved 12 years a slave and was happy it won and I hated crash and rather brokeback mountain won but in this context Moonlight seems to be a forced winner to fit a narrative
-
I tried then I stopped I got bored, I didn't love La La land either btw I don't really like musical but this is just something that doesn't happen. A movie that no one saw in the GA, it' is the second lowest grosser ever, wins best picture over the other movie that won every other award following a year where the Oscar were attacked for lacking diversity and all the other political stuff occurred. It is a political statement regardless of its merit and that to me is a bridge to far
-
It won precisely because it was black and gay, it was literally oscar bait the movie
-
But after last year of oscar so white and this year moonlight winning best picture when La La land swept every major predictor for the award seems like it is something other than it being a good movie
-
Yeah I disagree
-
I know they do but nobody else did, whatever I'm pretty liberal myself but this just feels like a reaction to last year and the election than anything else moonlight won't be remembered in more than a year its destined to be in the spotlight, artist of movie awarded then forgotten.
-
All ten people who saw moonlight are thrilled. This was a political choice clearly

You are never going to shame people into stopping as 99% of people don't view it as a moral issue the only way to stop it is to make movies more accessible like music -

If you watched a movie clip on YouTube you participated in pirating everyone has pirated stuff before and for movies it's simply easier especially for older movies -
That is not what he said at all

honestly everyone pirates one way or another when's the last time any of you payed for music you're only getting angry now because it deals with movies but still everyone either torrents or streams movies especially out of the US, but even here no one thinks about they just watch there is no ethical dilemma for anyone. -
Are you kidding me man what hill are you dying on Bioware thought it would be cool to release the data that's all
