  1. I don't really hate AoU. I will see it in theatres. And I don't need to leave. China will probably be bigger for Fast 7, in my country TA2 will likely make a bit more than half of F7, so... I'll be happy.
  2. I'd be delighted to see a masacre But FF7 beating AoU only by a small amount is also good
  3. UPDATE: FF7 will have a massive drop this weekend. It is still selling like crazy, but today, Sunday, is the first Easter day and most theatres are closed and yesterday it only got 3-4 shows in most locations. Last year, Captain America 2 dropped 70% on the Easter weekend. Still, this past week was the so called "Saptamana Altfel", which was basically a week of fun activities for schoolers and high schoolers and they make a big part of FF7's audience and this next week is the Easter break so the week days will probably be huge again. 400.000 admissions by the end of today is still possible.
  4. Ok, why the hell didnt I send in a list. This is so bad it hurts.
  5. Jolie is way above Lawrence, in both charisma and talent.
  6. The ER WILL hurt AOU. Badly so. For example, here TA2 has to sell much more tickets to do the same result as the first one and we are one of the least hit by this ER situation.
  7. She's nothing more than decent, even though I actually like THG. The Rock has the charisma of a rock tho.
  8. The Rock Vin Diesel Chris Evans Jennifer Lawrence
  9. Because I like to see movies that I love making big money and I also like to see movies that I don't like failing.
  10. I'd laugh my ass off if that happened. Why not? Frozen didn't really deserve half of what it did. FF7 is much much better.
  11. WEEKEND BOX OFFICE Thanks to 'Fast and Furious 7's record breaking opening, last weekend was the 6th most attended overall weekend ever. - Fast and Furious 7 opened to an incredible 196.210 admissions and $899k. That is way up from the previous record holder, 'The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies' in both admissions (148.191) and USD ($860k). Highest OWs ever: It is also more than double the previous high of the franchise. Here is a chart that shows the evolution of the series over the years: With no competition till 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' arrives, on the 24th, and because it's getting so much kiddie audience, 'Fast and Furious 7' is locked to end up with at least 500.000 admissions and $2.3m. In fact, if it follows 'Fast and Furious 6', it will end up with $2.5m+ and almost 600.000 adm, which would be the third highest grossing title ever behind only 'Avatar' and 'The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies'. Either way, the only way 'Furious 7' doesn't win the year, is if 'Star Wars 7' seriously overperforms even the wildest predictions. - In second, TinkerBell and the Legend of the NeverBeast opened to 18.977 adm and $87k. That is way behind the last movie in the franchise, despite Disney releasing it on 98 screens, one of the widest releases ever, and way above the 75 screens of 'Furious 7'. - In third, Insurgent fell 57% and reached $560k. That is actually the second best hold in the Top 10, which goes to show what a beast 'Furious 7' is. Anyway, 'Insurgent' now surpassed 'Divergent' in both tickets and USD and it is going to finish with at least $700k. - Get Hard collapsed 64% and reached a good $268k. - Home was down 68% and it now stands at a weak $117k. - Cinderella slided 64%. Total is $418k. - Big Game lost a huge 71%. Cume: $110k. - Local title Aferim! actually had the best hold (-47%). It now made $173k, which is quite a win for the dead local market. - Run All Night dropped big again (-66%). Total is $265k. - Focus closes the top, after sliding 64% to reach a great $753k. Top 10 Next week's openers: - The Longest Ride - Kidnapping Mr. Heineken - Minuscule - La vallee des fourmis perdues - Un beau dimanche If any of these titles opens above 10.000 adm, it won't be by much.
  12. Just saw this with a full theatre in the afternoon. Crazy. It was so good, so crazy, so emtional towards the end. Really liked it and my audience liked it too. The action was next level and the locations were so well chosen. One major plus for not involving The Rock too much. The series better without him. Honestly, I haven't paid much attention to anything else than Paul Walker's ark. So nicely done. A fitting finish for this franchise, at least for me. A+
  13. Treeroy, where do you take these posters from? I know they are fanmade, but they all seem to have the same style.
