    It was an early night for previews yesterday with both Sony and Warner Bros. trying to respectively pull in kids and the elderly for showtimes starting at 5PM: The Culver City studio with Smurfs: The Lost Village and the Burbank-based one with Zach Braff’s remake of the 1979 George Burns-Art Carney-Lee Strasberg comedy Going in Style. This morning, WB reports that Going in Style knocked off $600K, crushing Smurfs which made $375K.

    Who cares.  The studios and production companies involved would love to make money immediately, but they know that eventually it will be worth it.  Harrison Ford, Ridley Scott and Roger Deakins aren't getting any younger and it was a chance to grab the hottest director and great young actor and do something classic.  We should all applaud them for it like we did when they gave George Miller a bag of money and turned in a masterpiece.  

     

    Don't worry, the real people at Sony and Warner Bros. who financed this churn out stuff like Jumanji and Emoji Movie and Justice League and Ninjago so they can justify making the really cool shit for the proper budget.

    The stuff people should be rolling their eyes at is things like $170m for a throw away Tarzan movie or $200m for a stupid King Arthur they supposedly had to shoot twice.  Those can be entertaining movies, but could have been done for a lot closer to $100m each.  

     

    Something like Blade Runner 2049 is worth any price they throw at it.  

    This is why you're our 2nd best Gawd.

    I read the novella in one night. Got so caught up in it I never even checked the time, just kept turning page after page... and suddenly it was morning. And I had tears in my eyes from the ending.

     

    Dammit, it's a really good story.

     

    ...that fuckin' miniseries. :angry: 

    Bronson Pinchot was a national treasure in that series!
