Black Widow | July 9 2021 | ScarJo secures the bag from Disney
AJ2k replied to Kalo's topic in Box Office Discussion
I'm thinking this will be Black Widow's "Winter Soldier" movie and will do comparable numbers. -
Or there are some like me that was really disappointed with both movies. Both were one and done for me. I'm a character-driven viewer. You get me on board with the character(s) of your movie and I'll sit back and enjoy the ride no matter how stupid your story is lol. If the story is a good one that's just gravy. Both Godzilla movies absolutely FAILED in the character department. KOTM failed in just about every aspect. Couldn't even get the action scenes right.

Weekend Thread: Endgame 40.6M Friday, 61-62.5m Sat (per Asgard p.49)
AJ2k replied to sfran43's topic in Numbers and Data
That Bryan Adams song is permanently seared in my mind thanks to MTV playing it so much lol. Back in the 90's they used to have movie music videos that played on MTV constantly. It was basically a free commercial for the the movie playing every hour. Just a few off the top of my head that will never leave my mind are the aforementioned Titanic/Celine Dion, Bodyguard/Whitney Houston, Robin Hood/Bryan Adams and my favorite at the time Batman Forever (Seal - Kiss From a Rose and U2's Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss me) videos. Those movie music videos also inspired me into editing my own videos which has become a hobby that's stuck with me lol. -

Cmon lol. Of course no soundtrack is going to be bigger than those mentioned. This is a different era. Point out the cable channel that plays a song 20 times a day like MTV did in the 90s lol. -
Avengers: Endgame Thursday Thread: DHD 21.7M
AJ2k replied to FlashMaster659's topic in Numbers and Data
The last facial expression completely sold that scene. One of my favorite comedic scenes of the MCU. -
So did I. I already loved it on the first experience but the 2nd viewing really cemented it. I really can't believe this movie is 3 hours long because it just flies by. The first act starts out with a slow burn of character building which I love and from the 2nd act on it just doesn't let up. I think the 2nd act just may very well be my favorite of the movie and the 3rd act is just gravy. Then I come back to hear this thing is breaking records like this and it puts a smile on my face. And I'm not shocked because that theater was so packed I don't think anyone in Pittsburgh is working today.

Nah, they both delivered and gave me awesome experiences. I still need to digest EG. I'm about to see it again in less than 2 hours and it'll probably get better since I'll catch the stuff I missed last night from all the laughing and cheering. These movies will most likely flip between 1a and 1b depending on my mood.

You should have reversed that lol. IMAX2D is the way to see this movie. I saw Infinity War the first 2 times in XD and the 3rd time watching it in IMAX2D was a completely different experience. The picture looked so much better it was ridiculous. I'm not even wasting a ticket on XD this time around lol.

We only had about 20-30 people in our theater. Granted it's a work day but I think this movie is going to need GREAT word of mouth to get big $$$. I've already told my brother it's a must-see movie. He's always hesitant to go to movies these days because he has so many kids and doesn't want to waste the money on shit films lol.

This gorgeous movie gave me chills and thrills, especially At many points during the movie I caught myself watching my kid all wide-eyed and it made me smile. I'm so glad I avoided all of the clips and stuff that Sony put out. I've been looking at all of the clips online and I just think how much some of those scenes would have been ruined seeing them out of context without the build up.

My boy has asked me to play the trailer every day this week. He's more excited about this movie than he is about Christmas.
-
My boy is going to go crazy over this movie similar to The Incredibles. He's a HUGE Spider-man fan already, keeps making me show him the trailer over and over and really likes that he shares the same name of the main character. I took the 14th off so we can go to the theater to see during the day.

Great movie. The tonal shift in the end I think really caught people off guard and left an impact. Haven't heard a theater that silent since Infinity War and many people stayed in their seats through the credits. I had no idea that was Denzel's kid and now it makes sense that his voice and some of his expressions had such a familiarity to it that it was bugging me throughout the movie. I thought it was just the Spike Lee effect lol. I definitely recognized some musical cues from Inside Man. And was it just me or was that a re-mixed version of Shawshank's prison theme when Stallworth was going into the police station for the first time?

THE Incredibles 2 | June 15, 2018 | NO SPOILERS!!!!
AJ2k replied to Neo's topic in Box Office Discussion
After my experience today I'm avoiding any times where there could be young children. I really liked the movie from what I saw of it but the children in my theater really ruined the experience for me. I don't know what the hell those parents were doing but they basically just let their kids yell and sometimes scream throughout. They couldn't keep quiet for more than 2-3 minutes at a time and there were loud sounds like someone was constantly kicking the seat a couple of rows behind me. I took my boy of course but other than a few questions he had during the movie he was just mesmerized by the movie and was a freakin angel compared to the rest of the rugrats in there today. Next time I see I2 it's going to be at a 10PM show.
