  1. Shame that Grimsby is doing so terribly. I dunno how it managed to drop 0 cinemas this weekend, I guess there really is nothing else out.
  2. Yes, Tele. Your dreams. You are well known as the superhero nerd. It's not possible that I wrote a sentence poorly.
  3. Okay, when was the last time you saw an advert that highlighted the overwhelming negativity surrounding a film? (Aside from a film like DIRTY GRANDPA.) I'm sure there are a couple of critics who have used the word "best" somewhere in their review. Just because an advert says, "Critics are calling it the best", does not mean all critics are...
  4. Who is saying this is the best in the series? It has the weakest score on RT and metacritic. Also from the point of view of someone working in a cinema, everything I heard from customers on opening weekend was negative.
  5. You seem to over perform (to varying extents) with every movie. I think your number work needs refining.
  6. 25. The Gift I think it's time for everyone to acknowledge that Joel Edgerton is a brilliant man. As his directorial debut, this is a terrific thriller that does what all great genre movies should do, subvert its genre's tropes and subvert the viewers' expectations. It seems straightforward at first but as its characters grow more and more morally dubious, your expectations of what the film should be doing get jumped upon and ravaged at every twist and turn. It's held together by three tremendous performances from Jason Bateman, Rebecca Hall and Edgerton himself, who balances terror and empathy and genuine sadness. It makes great use of sound and imagery, and it looks wonderful. It's a pure-bred thriller movie that doesn't rely on cheap tricks but on real, complex characters, to keep you on the edge of your seat. And that final shot...
  7. It is annoying that they don't get wide releases and they are always expensive on home viewing. But then, they play to a very niche audience, so it's understandable.
  8. Did thou make an unholy bond with that goat?
  9. I would like to take the time to point out that THE LEGO MOVIE has the best animation of any film ever. That's all. Thanks.
  10. Big Hero 6 only made 30M during the holidays. Why can't you compare the movies?
  11. I know right? The whole film is made inside a computer, a good computer is around $1000, so how does the movie cost more than $1000? It doesn't make any sense.
  12. Dunno why y'all are saying Warcraft will flop. It could make $0 domestic and still break even.
  13. I'm sure I am just stupid, but what does this question mean? I've read it ten times and the more I think about it, the more confused I get. 6) Will any film have either a second domestic 3 day weekend or a second worldwide weekend that would have qualified for its respective top X table if multiple entries had been allowed?
  14. "my vibes" vs. objective 4x multiplier that the first film got
  15. Apologies if that last post fucks the site up on anyone's browser or mobile.
