  1. I think Oblivion will probably end up between 100m and 110m.
  2. I agree, it was overrated. It felt slight and awfully comedic and light to me.
  3. Catching Fire and Star Trek will come nowhere near those numbers; remember this isn't America. I also expect a dip in grosses for The Hobbit part 2 and don't expect Iron Man 3 to make 40.
  4. I really enjoyed this film. Lots of cynicism on this board but that might have more to do with the influence of critics on shaping some members opinions. Also, I've noticed people taking everything in this film rather literally; choosing to ignore metaphors and deeper meanings. B
  5. Ford could win as a sort of life achievement award.
  6. Sort of an unrelated question but... Why did Scary Movie 2 open so low considering how successful the first film was? It seems odd that it should open to half of what the first one made (yes I am also aware that it was not released on Friday).
  7. 42 could absolutely get nominated if it is a big hit.
  8. I did see the "only in cinemas for one week" subtitle on all of the ads
  9. Wow, that's a huge average especially for a re-release. They haven't done well here, have they? I was surprised by how low the theatre count was though.
  10. Anyone else think that Goddess looks absolutely awful? Cheap, unfunny, amateurish...
  11. Burt Wonderstone was surprisingly good. One of the funniest comedies in a while once you get through the first half hour.
  12. I would be surprised if it really disappoints here because I consider The Wizard of Oz to be just as entrenched in our culture as it is in America. Surely, the majority of Australians have seen the film or are at least familiar with the central characters and iconic images of the film.
  13. Warner just dumped Cloud Atlas. They clearly couldn't be bothered to market a movie that had not played well in pretty much every country it's been released in. I'm surprised it didn't go straight to DVD over here.
  14. Really? I Give It a Year? I was not expecting that at all. I saw very little promotion for it.
  15. I hope you are right but i'm very doubtful of that.
  16. - Trintignant not getting nominated wasn't a shock but a big snub in light of both the remarkable performance and the strong showing for Amour - Bigelow not getting nominated was a much bigger crime than snubbing Affleck, her work was on a totally different level
  17. 1. Zero Dark Thirty 4.75/52. Lincoln 4.5/53. Silver Linings Playbook 4.5/54. Argo 4.25/55. Amour 4.25/56. Les Miserables 4/57. Django Unchained 4/58. Life of Pi 4/59. Beasts of the Southern Wild 4/57-9 are pretty much tied. I legitimately love all the films nominated this year.
  18. 1. Lincoln2. Silver Linings Playbook3. Life of Pi4. Argo5. Les Miz6. ZDT7. Beasts8. Amour9. Django
  19. Did faults in the electronic voting system register Ben Affleck as Benh Zeitlin?
