  1. Only the third movie, idk the name

    For someone who likes movies you seem very close minded...the original trilogy is clearly the best, but you watched the last movie of a mixed prequel trilogy....no wonder you're not interested! For your own sake forget about the prequel movies from 1999-2005 and watch the one from 1977-1983.

    I don't say that in a mean or funny way, I'm very serious.

    You could have regrets in a few years if you miss all the hype and reach of SW7, it's a movie you won't be able to understand or feel without watching the original trilogy.

    Don't even bother watching SW7 if you didn't watch it because you won't feel anything and you will feel alone and out of sync.

    If you have times for shitty movies you certainly have time for a trilogy that changed cinema forever.

  2. I just read this in the New York Times :

    A movie ticket costs about 380 bolívars. Calculated at the government rate, that is $60. At the black-market rate, it is just 54 cents. Want a large popcorn and soda with that? Depending on how you calculate it, that is either $1.15 or $128.

    The minimum wage is 7,421 bolívars a month. That is either a decent $1,178 a month or a miserable $10.60.

    --> so the Venezuelan box off numbers are completely false in $. The real numbers are something like 100 times lower

  3. Universal re-released the Back to the Future trilogy on “Back to the Future Day” yesterday and grossed $4.8M worldwide. The trio of films played on 1,815 domestic screens making $1.65M and posted $3.2M abroad. The trilogy will continue to play throughout the weekend. October 21, 2015, marked the long-awaited day that Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) and Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) travel to in Back to the Future Part II.

    Here’s how foreign broke down: The films ranked in spots Nos. 1,2 and 3 in Germany with $1.4M box office and a 38% market share. Austria also took the No. 1, 2 and 3 spots with $140k and 50% market share. Italy opened it at No. 1 for the day with $585k and 37% market share. U.K. and Ireland placed No. 4 with a solid $345k. France placed No. 8 with $300k. Australia had an exclusive release with Hoyts and placed No. 5 with $54k. The rest of the territories reported a combined total of $450k.

    Yesterday’s celebration resonated with fans across a number of generations; even kids in elementary schools across the U.S. were wearing Back to the Future shirts and caps. Christopher Lloyd recorded a viral video in the DeLorean car announcing the big day which drew 1.7M views on the Uni Home Entertainment YouTube channel. Lloyd and Fox stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! On Facebook alone, 27M folks made 45M posts relating to “Back to the Future Day”. By volume the top countries talking about the series included the U.S., Mexico, Brazil, the U.K. and Canada.
