Saw it a few weeks ago and just watched it again. It's even better than I felt the first time. Easy to forget just how good the first half is, when the second half is so perfect, but really the whole film is great. The mating ritual scene truly, best film scene I've seen in ages. I strongly suspect this will be my film of the year.

It's a shame All is True done so badly, I really wanted to see that film. @terrestrial @Boxofficerules terrestrial yes you're correct. the BFI releases the most comprehensive data for the public. it's only done by weekend so there's no Mojo-like system to search or keep record, just have to look at individual weekend. If you want to keep tabs on it, the webpage is: https://www.bfi.org.uk/education-research/film-industry-statistics-research/weekend-box-office-figures so for example it look like this:

Dude. money is immaterial to Ad Astra. 24 May 2019 will mark itself in the history books and its legacy will live forever.

Interesting. Thanks terrestrial. Didn't know Black Panther was the original black superhero, and didnt know about this political party, i had a look on wikipedia and they seem... very interesting.

Black Panther Party? I had no idea the marvel character was inspired by a political party.

futurist do you never get bored?

there's a screening on Monday of Serenity with Q&A stream with Matthew Mcconaughey... i gotta check that out.

sure, I suppose it could be better & its very flawed. couldn't all movies be improved in some ways? For me i just appreciate seeing a fresh and original large scale film on a big screen and being able to enjoy it. I cannot say the same for 90% of modern blockbuster type films.

probably. i doubt Universal will bother to pay for any advertising at all.

who's to say Alita won't be nominated for Best Picture next year? Never underestimate Jim.

Glad to hear it is still getting a theatrical release. The merger completes so soon?

you think? i mean it won't be short but why can't it be a little bit shorter? since they are doing some categories during ad breaks and also I heard they are removing in memorium and only performing two songs?

(or Zack Snyder) I agree about the label thing. 200 years ago the word and idea of "heterosexuality" did not exist.

I'm the opposite. I used to be gay and then I decided to turn straight. I much prefer it this way... it's what's natural bro. Even if it does mean a lot less sex. sadly, women have standards

My local representative has just left the Conservative party. Good for her, nice to have a politician with principles. Must be very liberating too to be a politician not restricted by party.

bored of your supermodels?

that... actually stuns me.

no not forever but you know what I meant I don't know anything about american TV though.

or maybe its vice versa -- the content that goes out for free is the weaker stuff, you pay premium if you want premium content. kind of how network/cable TV has worked since... forever? Next thing you'll be telling me that game of thrones is higher quality than CSI Miami.

I'll give it to you jimbo, it did indeed blitz the domestic prediction in its opening. Nicely done. It's nice that the year's first proper overperformer is Alita. My 280M prediction in your club is toast. it really may not lose all that much money.

I feel like Predator is a much more broken film than Cloverfield Paradox. I thought it was stunning that such a big budget tentpole film could be so broken, an absolute shambles that makes no sense and horrificly stitched together. hot take.

incredibles 2 was very smart and funny, spiderverse was not good.
