  1. Well, you have Fight Club so your list is by definition a good one. Too low though.
  2. Just saw Nightcrawler. It is brilliant. I wouldn't say my No. 1 movie of 2014, but still insanely good. Gyllenhaal's character is just great to watch and despite the total lack of morals (or maybe because of that), I still rooted for him.
  3. Why is it shocking? That guy is my model in life he and the chick from Bad Judge. Or are you being sarcastic?
  4. I agree with both. And I can't believe I had WOWS higher than you
  5. Seriously? You are subjective as fuck, Look at her RT page. Besides the fact that the only rotten movie she was a part of was The Tale of Despereaux, which is an animation (in fact, most of her movies are in the 80 area), read some reviews. Critics praise her. But I am curious why you dislike her. Also, that's a great postr and a very creepy trailer. Is this a horror or a thriller?
  6. That seems like a strong start for Dracula Untold, considering it did pretty bad in the US.
  7. Wait, why? It's as subjective as it can be. SW wasn't on yours or Tele's list of movies that brainwashed people into liking theme even if it should've been No. 1. And yeah, the Marvel movie with all the phraise they get, even though they are mostly crap deserve to be thrown under the bus.
  8. WEEKEND BOX OFFICE 'Shades' drops hard, 'Jupiter' holds on and openers are weak on overall solid weekend. - Fifty Shades of Grey fell a big 70% from last weekend; that is actually in line with 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2's drop (-68%). Even so, it now stands at a mighty $1.2M and 258.723 admissions . It is locked to end up with well over 300.000 admissions and if 'Bond' or 'Star Wars' don't seriously over perform, it will win the year. In admissions at least that is as of now a pretty safe bet. - Jupiter Ascending had another solid hold (-43%). It now stands at a very nice $649k and 118.981 admissions. - In third, The Woman in Black 2: Angel of Death was the highest newcomer, with 14.442 adm and $63k. That's pretty decent for the genre, considering horror always bombs here. - The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water held well (-39%) and it reached $369k and 76.741 adm. In the end it will top 'Big Hero 6', even though it opened quite lower. - The second opener, The Theory of Everything attracted only 9.411 people in theatres and brought in a weak $46k. - Kingsman: The Secret Service slides 52% in it's second outing. Total is a middling $180k. - The Wedding Ringer had a great hold in the top, down a light 25%. Total stands at a nice $387k. - The Imitation Game also enjoyed attention from the public (-33%). Cume is an ok $281k. - Yellowbird pretty much stayed flat (-9%). Still, too little, too late: total - $158k. - Big Hero 6 closes Top 10 with a 41% drop and $470k. It now barely passed a 2x multiplier, which is just horrible for an animation. - Further down the chart Big Eyes and White God bombed with 2.498 and 2.439 admissions respectively. Top 10 Next week's openers: - Focus - Shaun the Sheep - The Boy Next Door - The Lazarus Effect - Grand Central - De ce eu? (Why me? - local movie) I don't think any of these movies will open particularly huge, but most of them should earn a decent amount of money in their first weekend. The presales for 'Focus' seem to indicate a debut in the 30.000 admissions area, give or take a bit. Animations are impossible to predict by using presales, but 'Shaun the Sheep' should debut north of 20.000 adm. 'The Boy Next Door' and 'The Lazarus Effect' could both touch the 10.000 adm border. Local movies almost always bomb here, but 'De ce eu?' had a decent marketing push and the subject seems appealing. Still, it wouldn't bet on it making over 10.000 adm. 'Grand Central' will likely flop. Here's a look at this year's Top 10 Highest Grossing Movies of 2015 so far: We also have The Final Ranking for 2014 (the three bolded titles are still in theatres, but none of them can go up anymore):
  9. I'm glad Redmayne won best actor, but how the hell did American Sniper win Best Sound Editing while competing with Interstellar and The Hobbit?! That I don't get. I also don't get why Interstellar lost Best Original Score.
  10. I am sorry I haven't seen this movie before I completed my Top 50 movies of the Decade so Far, because 'Son of a Gun' was so good. Why? I can't quite put my finger on it, but it's probably a combination of great acting (especially from McGregor, but also from Thwaites), excellent direction and a really tight plot. There are some powerful scenes there and that song at the end. It fits so damn well! A

  12. Ok, maybe he IS right... wtf Ethan? Did you actually watch the movie?
  13. So weird that people find my Top 3 weird. Especially the no. 1. It is a universally acclaimed movie. No one hates it.
