Really? Huh. I thought after Kundun that Scorsese movies were a no-no.

Scorsese is banned in China.

Moderation I didn't want to have to do this, but @andersonhoran has been threadbanned for directly ignoring my posts and continuing to post grossly offensive rhetoric. As a reminder to everybody, when a staff member tells you to stop something, you stop with no ifs, ands, or buts about it. And if you really have a problem with a moderation warning for whatever reason, it's best if you talk to said mod privately.

Moderation @andersonhoran You probably didn't see this eariler, but we aren't using the current Israel-Palestine conflict as an excuse for an unrelated movie's potential box office. If you do this again, you will lead me with no other choice but to give you a threadban.

lol when I read the thread title, my brain read "MJF" as Michael J. Fox. Was very concerned, because that man should not be wrestling in his condition 🤣

I'm aware. You're not the person I'm talking about mate.

Sorry, but we can't allow international threads to movies that don't even have release dates yet.

Moderation Not the "Is superhero fatigue real" thread. Please focus on the numbers.

Moderation Just letting you know we're not doing this "hit piece" stuff. It's not cute of y'all to act like this is an "attack" over a dumb kids movie that's made by people richer than you will ever be. Nor are we going after Amber. I know this game y'all are playing and it's not cute.

Taking my mom Saturday in a sold out screening, and I am unsure if I will even survive the whole show. Just seems like it's going to be a headache-inducing experience.

This is why you don't go on Reddit mah boi. Tis a silly place.

That drop for Exorcist in particular is brutal. Not often you see a movie fall almost 1M in actuals.

Moderation Okay, we're done here. A lot of you are desperately twisting FlatLannister's words around, he has specifically stated he thinks 40M is only a tiny, miniscule chance, and it isn't funny anymore. Continue this conversation further and you will see a threadban.

Moderation @dudalb has been threadbanned for 24 hours for blatant anti-Arab racism. Please do not use the current conflicts in the Midde East as a basis for an unrelated movie’s performance. Thank you.

lol it's Kingdom of Heaven all over again.

AHHHHHHHHHH

Agreed. However, I am at the point where I've long since given up on these movies having a future. I know, deep down, that the movies I care about are a dying breed and there's nothing we can do to change that. The studios are run by people who ate art, and audiences are the least demanding they've ever been. As we near this end of an era, we just have to enjoy the little victories and recognize there was an audience at one point, even at a time when audiences were the most repulsed at real movies...I guess? I dunno. I just know that if I say the truth and do the usual "cinema is dead", "audiences are undemanding", "nostalgic toy commercial" schtick, people will get mad at me and yell at me and hate that I dare be "doom and gloom" even though there's a bazillion reasons to be doom and gloom. Just trying to give a tiny bit of optimisim to placate others, even if, sadly, things are only going to get worse and worse and worse.
