  2. Just came back from Alien, the themes explored in this movie are so fucking great! ... but then it pains me so much to see the missed opportunities at play here :mellow:

     

    I mean, I liked it, but it could have been a classic if it wasn't for a few, but oh-so-big flaws. The movie definitely has something to say, it's got a voice, and splendid visuals to boot, it's a shame it doesn't work as well as it could.

     

    Michael Fassbender kills it though, as usual.

     

    Still, recommended, once the movie gets going, it's pretty good

  3. The landscape of entertainment consumption between 2002 and 2012 changed so much, I'd bet you can't really conclude anything from that data.

     

    People nowadays just have exponentially more ways to be entertained than just renting a movie, or watching it on TV. We are being, as consumers, bombarded with content competing for our attention, so much that pretty much everyone I know now has a queue of TV shows they want to watch, movies they wanna catch up with, but they simply don't have the time to go through them, as their attention is also being taken by following the lives of their friends and families on facebook, watching new videos uploaded by their favorite channels on YouTube, or going through funny content on websites like reddit and stuff (and that's just what I can come up with off the top of my head)

     

    In 2002, I doubt this was the case for anyone. Movies and TV shows didn't have as much competition as they do now, and although piracy must have had an impact, the landscape changed too much to directly compare the industry between the 2 decades.

  4. The Last Jedi can't really make below $1.4B

     

    TFA made 1150 OS, TLJ won't suddenly drop to like 500, this isn't Rogue One (even with Exchange rate drops)

     

    It also won't drop to Rogue One levels domestically. Everyone wants to know what happens next, especially with Luke around

     

    Floor to me is $650M DOM and $750M OS

     

     

    My prediction - $230M OW x 3.50 = $800M DOM + $900M OS for $1.7B WW
