  1. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III is a movie I remember fondly. Though I have no memory of the movie, besides having seen it. Maybe it's just cause I remember the toys I had were from III, and they were fun.
  2. The theater near me on that list doesn't even have showings...
  3. I have a strange urge to watch the Underworld movies now...
  4. If the reverse was true? that if TFA would be released in May, would it get the same gross, but open 350M+?
  5. This is what happens when your response is eaten by the Internet, Tele posts a better one.
  6. But you can't compare TFA to other December openers because of the openening. The multi looks unremarkable if you ignore the OW, and you can't just ignore that it made 3 times the Hobbit opening weekend. If you take the entire run of JW and pin it to TFA's opening, that would be less that TFA's actual total.
  7. The standard December release isn't 250M opening. The previous record holder was 80M. 3.7 off 80M is an entirely different thing than 3.7 off 250M. You can't just ignore the starting point.
  8. It was never going to get a 4.25 off a 250M opening weekend. My point is it's a great multiplier for it's opening. to nearly push 3.8x off a 250M opening is great.
  9. A standard multiplier off a movie that opened nearly 3 times larger than the previous biggest opener for DEC. It's multiplier looks not as good because the front end is massively larger than anything the release date has seen. TFA made more after it's opening weekend than Titanic made in it's entire run.
  10. He might want to be more mainstream. Like Radcliffe he may just want to be in this fringe place that let's him do what he wants.
  11. He's done a few movies, his last one was Horns, with Radcliffe, I believe.
  12. Oh, I liked making Burt's ancestor a wuss, it was the best part. And I'll fully admit to a soft spot for Kennedy that probably isn't deserved. And the guy from 3 never grated on me the way Grady did. I'll have to add it to my pile. It's been a few years since I've seen any of the movies, and while I own the TV series on DVD, I know there are some I missed.
  13. I'd love to see a more serious Tremors film, don't get me wrong. My biggest memories of two are long stretches of nothing but bad banter between Earl and Grady, and the awesomeness of Burt. Also a playboy bunny. It just never worked, and it probably never will, sadly. Though, it should be said I don't think I've tried watching it since I first saw it, and had such a bad reaction to it. It might play better now. Tremors is a movie that I literally grew up on. All of the movies are so skewed high up in my head. 2 is just the weakest at a 9.
  14. The biggest problem was the move from practical to digital. 3 is perhaps my favorite of the sequels, if only for some decent in jokes. I like 4 for being different and some great moments. 5 isn't that bad, but you can tell they had only a 100 bucks to make the movie, it's ideas were actually pretty interesting with the genetic variations on the Graboids, and the Jamie Kennedy twist was pretty obvious. 3 to 5 also stopped taking them seriously as horror/monster movies, so it's hard for me to judge them on the same level, I just had fun with them. 2 tried to be serious like the first, and it just was boring. My biggest problems with Aftershocks were, Grady is one of the most annoying characters in the series, and all the characters that could die, either died off screen or no time was spent for me to care. I cared more about Nestor dying in Tremors than anyone in 2. And nothing was as horrifying or Heartbreaking as Chang's death.
  15. Just reminding me of this movie. Though the protagonist wasn't gay...
  16. It's hard for me to describe, I want to see the good, but I'm too much a completionist to skip anything. And I think like other shows I've binged on Netflix, I just got bored, and need to find a better way of watching. I may just drop the chronological order bit and just let an auto-play go while I'm doing other work. Also tend to react badly to fan reaction running around calling it the best thing ever.* So far, it's not bad, even the movie isn't bad for what it clearly is, it just isn't good either. * I don't mean you, for the record, you actually have reasons to why you like it, and fully accept others may not.
