Hey, since new BO Mojo sucks is there any alternative to the new site? Also anyone knows is there a place to look for local hits for movies produced in Eastern Europe?

Most overseas countries don't get US buzz so they are often late to the party in Franchises. I often see OW getting the hype one part after US and OW results getting good only after a strong performance in the US. Hangover 1-2, FF5/FF6

Naah. If it was released in Aug or in Dunkirk date it could work. May is just problematic for it beause in may you need a huge opening while later summer months give you room for good word of mouth to work.

Hobs vs Shaw will do decent numbers even if its bad. It would have to look horrible to not sell.

If you're a simple person the only ideas you will appreciate are the simple ones.

Baumer I think we are living in different universes. Chastain basically copied her performance from Miss Sloane. It was a mediocre showy performance of "I am confident and I talk loud"

If you think he is disturbed that means he probably has achieved what he wanted so it's hard to call it bad. Also since it's a box office forum (doesn't feel like it) it looks like Hereditary will cross $40m. Maybe even $50m if it stays long enough in cinemas.

This. The public hasn't really been burned. Just a select group of people asked by Cinemascore. IMDB is high

I disagree. The theatre experience itself forces you to focus since there are no distractions and if you are lucky you get great projection and sound quality (I've heard some theaters show Hereditary too dark and some stuff is not visible like it should be). I often watch movies on movie markets and festivals where the audience is super quiet. Hell I am often the only person in the cinema when testing DCP copies. I still love those screenings. btw. First 2 days of the week saw small drops. Cinemascore means shit

I'm not angry that he didn't like the movie. I am angry because he said certain movies shouldn't be seen in cinemas.

I see you don't like good cinema and judge it on surface level "hurr durr 2 movies about family and more about dread than stupid jump scares = 95% same". Also a24 movies are different. I hated it Comes at night, I liked the Witch, Liked Green Room and Killing of a Sacred Deer and love Hereditary. They are very different movie. Also it's nice you only want to see blockbusters in Cinemas. Ehh US viewers that need explosions or easily understandable and palatable dramas to enjoy a movie. I'm pretty sure 90% of the current "movie fans" would hate Kubrick if he was active now. PS. So far Cinemascore is not affecting the Drops. It dropped much less on Monday than other top movies.

Then maybe give me specific reasons why Cinemascore methodology is good or why it's so diffferent vs RT Audience score and IMDB? So far you give no supporting evidence or reasoning to your statements.

No one is defensive except you. We just don't agree with you. Also you know really little about Cinemascore and profesional surveys if you think Cinemascore is really a strong measure. The basic grade we see it a very low sample size simplistic measure.

Killing of aSacred deer is a masterpiece in screenwriting and very good directing. It's miles above it comes at night. It's hard to be positive towards US viewers.

8.2 on imdb - "Audiences don't seem to like this movie". Again we are here to have an informed opinion about box office results and predictions. So base what you write on something, not event facts because you wrote without reading anything about the movie and are now afraid to admit you were wrong. You are just another person who assumes since it's a24 that it's a movie like "it comes at night". Yeah and Aquaman will be like Battlefield Earth since both are from Warner...
