Weekend Thread: Boss Baby & Purge 1.3M Previews
Eric Loves Rey replied to Eric Loves Rey's topic in Numbers and Data
Well there was actually a Purge TV show on USA Network and I believe season 2 takes place in the aftermath of a Purge night. Of course nobody watched it, so... -

That's...what I just mentioned? And again, it still seems weird they didn't try and make a live-action show on Peacock. Coulda did like a prequel or something about the creation of Jurassic World or showcase some raptor tamers doing their thing. Wouldn't have been amazing, but it would certainly make people, especially the fans, curious in checking out the service and get a couple headlines from the entertainment press. -

I know Paramount+ is in dire straits (relying on an iCarly reboot as your big new show is never a good sign), but I would think it would be doing better than Peacock. All those Star Trek shows have to be watched by somebody and you are required to pay for it to watch stuff on it. What does Peacock have? That weird self-aware Saved by the Bell revival? Honestly, it's very strange to me Peacock didn't try to greenlight a Jurassic World or Fast and Furious show. They probably wouldn't get as big of headlines as Mandalorian, but at least it has something people can get jazzed over. Seems weird they put those franchises into the endless conveyor belt of Dreamworks Netflix cartoons (seriously, this studio pumps out like 10 shows every time I blink) -

My mom forced me to watch the pilot to some Ed Helms show called Rutherford Falls and watching it really does solidify how Andy was the absolute worst character on The Office. -

I own the premium version of Peacock because my parents still have Xfinity cable and even I can't bring myself to watch the service 98% of the time. Half of it is stuff I can already get on other streaming services, while their original stuff is just generic comedies that would fit snugly into the NBC primetime schedule. Not surprised Peacock did little to impact Boss Baby's box office. -
I'm aware that was harsh to say, but I felt I had to do this, because that's the only way people will listen sometimes. People here have mentioned their frustrations with a lot of the arguments and fanboy discussion in the past. That it can be annoying to read, can get pretty hostile, and that it often leads to nowhere, making things exhausting as a result. And while this is far from the worst we've experienced, it could have easily gone south fast and I feel confident in saying a good chunk of BOT is tired of this kind of stuff, at least a little bit. As for that last point, I don't think this is a bad thing. I'd much prefer a quieter, smaller community with fewer posts, full of people who just like talking about box office and movies in a respectful manner rather than a big community with more posts, but has more fanboy infighting.

Okay. Let me rephrase it then. Nobody who matters (like me) cares about this anymore. You've already talked about this for well over a day, and it's very clear you will not change each other's minds, making such argument completely pointless and frustrating to read. People who want to go into the thread that either see little point in discussing whether or not MCU movies are the same or not or have moved on from the convo will be frustrated and annoyed. Not helped also by some posters purporting a "holier than thou" attitude over these dumb children's movies, and are instigating these issues, therefore making the flames fan worse than they already were (cough cough). If you still want to maintain the conversation, PMs are fine, though I see little reason to continue a fight that will see no victor. This is all I will say on the matter.

I mean you can try out the chair technique if you want to. Just that...you'll probably not feel good after doing it. -

Well in 2017 they reworked the Animated Feature category so more people outside of the animation branch could determine the nominations as a way to put in more mainstream animated fare. Though honestly the lineups over the past three years aren't all bad. Whether the winner was deserved is up to you, but the variety is pretty solid across the board. -

Since there's not much else to talk about, some nice box office history: The trades mentioned the last time the top three were from the studio was in February 2005, with Hitch, Boogeyman, and Are We There Yet? all from Sony. But I wanted to look at the last time that happened and it was all the way back in September 1989, all from Universal oddly enough. Sea of Love, Uncle Buck, and Parenthood all landed in the top three respectively. I'm sure I'll get mocked for this, but I never heard of Sea of Love up until now. -
