Do you even know what the 21st century is?

Hence why when really leggy movies hit (Avatar, Frozen), the theaters love them.

I haven't seen Chico & Rita or Puss in Boots, so I can't really comment on those. The critical consensus for C&R is pretty strong, though. PiB I'd probably drop for being a spinoff of Shrek. Of the others, I'd probably drop KFP2 before A Cat in Paris, leaving the lineup as: Arthur Christmas A Cat in Paris Chico & Rita Rango Winnie the Pooh

EuroTrip isn't a sequel?

Lower average, though. I don't know if I'd argue it should have won over Rango. But it definitely should have been nominated, along with Winnie the Pooh. (Poppy Hill I'm not sure about. I like it, but it's not top tier Ghibli. It also may not have been eligible in '11, but rather in '12.)

Shit. Both Argo and Catch Me If You Can were based on books. IAC, my criteria was basically whether or not it earned more than $100m DOM. And also that I didn't think too hard about it. Placements could be quibbled. 1. Frozen2. The Incredibles3. Lilo & Stitch4. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl5. Pacific Rim6. Monsters, Inc.7. Bolt8. Up9. Gravity10. Wall-E11.

Django Unchained24. Taken25. The Croods

Godzilla's collapse over a holiday second weekend is pretty damning, performance-wise.

Eh, I don't really agree with that. If the composer ends up working on a dog of a film, does that mean they should slum it on the score, in case they might do the best part?

If my city is any indication, IMAX is the only thing keeping it from total screening collapse.

True. I more ran out of time to answer than anything else.

Weird that so few of the IMAX options this summer have been that compelling.

Yeah. The real IMAX screen near me has Hercules listed under the coming soon films. They've also scaled back to just 2 showings to TF4, so there's basically no chance they play both at the same time.

It loses all IMAX screens next week.

EoT's in 17th, though: 14 10 Jersey Boys WB $1,230,000 -51.1% 1,003 -965 $1,226 $44,464,000 $40 5 15 19 Boyhood IFC $1,198,000 +209.1% 33 +28 $36,303 $1,848,000 $2.4 2 16 15 Chef ORF $1,129,000 -10.3% 552 -149 $2,045 $25,941,000 - 11 17 13 Edge of Tomorrow WB $1,110,000 -38.8% 602 -501 $1,844 $96,625,000 $178 7 18 11 Think Like a Man Too SGem $1,100,000 -54.2% 628 -603 $1,752 $63,964,000 $24 5

I'm sure some of them will flip around. Boyhood's got a bit of a cushion on both sides, though.

It still is, adjusted for inflation.

Ooh. Right now I have all five placements correct.

DoFP passing The Last Stand or Godzilla passing $200m. It's all EDGE OF YOUR SEAT thrills!

Is it likely to also sell well?

Well, yes, but it's not really specifically about the story. The scene was pretty cool, I admit.

Not your fault. I'm in kinda an ambivalent mood today, so nothing excites me.

Huh. Okay, I guess.

1. Big Hero 62. Book of Life3. Song of the Sea4. Inside Out5. The Boxtrolls6. Tomorrowland7. Inherent Vice 8. Mad Max: Fury Road 9. Cinderella10. Fantastic Four

I think by the evidence, the WOM of Maleficent is fantastic. Perhaps not among the classic movie geek crowd, but definitely overall.
