Sully has an 89% on RT but a 5.8 average
Well there's only 9 reviews so far, so that one negative review really dragged the average down. It'll probably pick up in the coming days, and be somewhere in the 6s or 7s.

Guys, I am now in Venice and I saw it.
If you have any q's, shoot.
Oh and I loved it and cried at the end. But it's not your Independance Day AT ALL.
What do you think of its Oscar potential? Do you think Adams or Renner have a shot in their categories, and is it possible that this movie will be one of the BP nominees?

I'm still waiting for the day a Legend of Zelda movie is announced.

These always make me crack up whenever I rewatch them.

Custer's Revenge needs a movie adaptation this fucking instant.
I'm pretty sure it's already on Brazzers.

This movie makes me happy that I am gay so I never have to worry about accidentally knocking up a girl thus leading me to be a dad and then having a kid to watch movies like this.

Here's the objective and factual truth about the POTC franchise...in my opinion.
COTBP: Fun, creative, likable, and charming, with plenty of great gags and well-choreographed scenes of swordfighting and swashbuckling. It's the perfect movie for when you want to kill an afternoon.
DMC: Stupid, nonsensical, needlessly complicated, and overlong, but there's still plenty to appreciate. Davy Jones is entertaining, the wheel fight and the Kraken scenes are incredible, and there's still Captain Jack and Barbossa doing what they do best. Not great, or even good, but you can still get some enjoyment out of it.
AWE: I haven't seen this movie since it first came out, so maybe there's a bias there, but I remember almost nothing from this movie, outside of the opening, which is far too needlessly dark for a fuckin' POTC movie, and a couple of random scenes here and there. Maybe if I rewatch it I might get something out of it, but I'll probably just end up strongly disliking it.
OST: They tried to scale down, but it once again is overlong, and needlessly complicated. There are some select scenes that are enjoyable, like the mermaid scene, and Jack leaving Angelica on the island, and Angelica herself is a likable character, but most of it is pretty boring and forgettable. It's a shame since they treated the movie like a soft reboot. Hopefully next year's soft reboot will be better and bring Captain Jack back to his former glory.

QuoteLike “Brokeback Mountain” a decade ago, “Moonlight” is a piece of art that will transform lives long after it leaves theaters. Those who will be changed by the picture may not see it on the big screen. They may even have to see it in secret. But when they do. Whey they watch Chiron
Spoilerhave that first kiss, when he can be himself for just an instance in a world that oppresses him?
It will be everything.

http://deadline.com/2016/09/summer-box-office-cooled-2016-could-be-colder-2017-1201812031/
Deadline had analyst Doug Creutz talk about this summer and next summer, but here are the highlights:
-Rumors are that around 26 movies will get 2,500+ theaters for their OWs next year, below 2016, but above the historical average
-A lot of money losers will be on the schedule, since the number of action and animation films is at 17, much higher than the guideline rule of 9 action and animation movies being successful
-Disney's at medium risk, with GOTG 2 being big, but Cars 3 and Pirates 5 potentially decreasing from their predecessors
-Fox is at medium-high risk, as Captain Underpants will face big competition with Cars and Despicable Me, and Kingsman will face a ton of competition that could limit its potential
-Paramount's at low-medium risk, because WWZ2 and Transformers 5 are expected to do "reasonably well", but Baywatch could overperform due to it being a comedy alternative.
-Warner Bros. is at medium risk, as it has Wonder Woman, Dunkirk, Annabelle 2, and The House, but none of these are guaranteed to be in the summer's top 12, though Wonder Woman could break out.
-Nothing was said for Universal or Sony for some reason.

Wikipedia is really not reliable at all.
We re living it, right now, so all these paleontologists with their Phds got their dates wrong I don't know.

La La Land will probably be the only one nominated for BP. American Pastoral has a shot though, and I hope it does, going off of the trailer, and maybe Hacksaw Ridge has potential, but I feel Lionsgate will campaign harder for the first two mentioned.

492m and 213m (adjusted), that's why.
I just looked at Wikipedia, and the first movie did $300M WW in '77. How did I not know it was that big of a hit?

They made 3 Smokey and the Bandit movies? Why?

QuoteEven though Universal/DreamWorks’ The Girl on the Train boasts a social media universe of 29M and a viral rate of 10 to 1, many do expect this chick lit adaptation to post around $30M in its first weekend, despite some naysayers in distribution exclaiming, “It’s not Gone Girl”.
Looks like @ThatOneMorgan's curse might not work this time.

I don't get our obsession with budgets. Assuming we're interested in the movie in the first place, surely we want the best/most effort expended in making sure it's as good as they can get it, no?
I know we love playing with fantasy numbers to guess profitability, but sometimes I think we forget they're fantasy numbers.
Well with a lower budget, that means greater profitability and less of a chance of a movie to fail. A movie I like not failing = happier me.

Looks fantastic, as all A24 films tend to. Will this be the #OscarsSoWhite killer that The Birth Of A Nation was supposed to be (alongside Loving)?
I think it'll be Fences. It's based off of a Pulitzer winner, and it has Denzel and Viola. I do think Moonlight and Loving will get BP noms though.
