  1. There are at least 25 working directors better than Nolan. Maybe 40 or 50...
  2. YES TELE. THAT'S WHY IT IS #0 AND IN CAPS AND IN BOLD BECAUSE I WAS BEING 100% SINCERE.
  3. 2000s: 1. War of the Worlds 2. Minority Report 3. Kingdom of the Crystal Skull 4. The Terminal 5. Tintin 1990s: 1. Jurassic Park 2. The Lost World 3. Hook 4. Schindler's List 5. Amistad 1980s: 0. THE BLUES BROTHERS 1. The Last Crusade 2. Raiders of the Lost Ark 3. ET 4. Poltergeist 5. Empire of the Sun 1970s: 1. Duel 2. Close Encounters 3. Jaws
  4. I still haven't seen War Horse, only seen the stage play on the west end. (Which was amazing)
  5. A few extra showtimes don't make a massive difference if the shows are not selling out.
  6. it's a BHD adjusted club right? that film's 152M is too close to Interstellar's 188M to be able to make a club. (I think)
  7. yes, to clarify this is for opening weekend only. I'm not that crazy. I would make a Martian over Interstellar club but I don't think I'm allowed.
  8. For the third year running, we're getting a space blockbuster in the fall. Ridley Scott is obviously a renowned sci-fi director, and as the biggest science fiction movie of the year, fans of the genre will be turning up to see how this turns out. As the movie's advertising has grounded it to earth, showcasing an American theme of 'leave no man behind', it will appeal to a very wide audience. Comparisons to Interstellar and Gravity are inevitable, but the trailer for the movie has been more widely seen than both of those. This is Fox's biggest tentpole release in 2015, and as such they will be giving it as much promotion as possible. Awareness is high already (at least where I am) and anticipation will grow in the next two months leading up to release. It will be the biggest film in several months, so it will receive strong press coverage and mainstream audiences will have a reason to go to the cinema again. Opening weekend it is facing very little competition, and if all goes in its favor - including potentially very strong reviews - then I think this can outgross GRAVITY in its first three days. Maybe it sounds like too much, but there's a demand for big-budget space movies and it will be satisfied. Who's with me...
  9. Our cinema was really empty at the weekend, especially Saturday and Sunday. Kind of nice to not be too stressed but it makes my job much more boring. FF took 3rd place behind MI / IO. Not surprising. I would have posted a projection on Friday night but I was too tired. This coming weekend should be interesting - no film will do great numbers but there are 4 major new releases, so overall box office should be alright given that it's mid-August.
  10. he can consider all his movies to be one movie, still wouldn't change the fact that the poster is factually incorrect. Tarantino does not decide what makes a movie a movie. This is his 9th film to be released in cinemas, end of.
  11. erm no, Kill Bill vol. 1 & Kill Bill vol. 2 are two separate films, if you're going by "long feature director" credits.
  12. I've only seen the trailer but the earth stuff looks much more interesting than the Mars stuff. I can't decide whether or not to read the book. Everyone says it's great fun but I don't want to lessen the first experience of a hopefully equally fun movie.
  13. AUGUST was all-cast no-substance, I would guess the same will happen here. Although the cast isn't half as impressive.
