    Am I mistaken or aren’t we in a box office forum… The box office for this was pitiful for two stars of their caliber

    Surprised neither Damon nor Affleck have gotten much heat for this flopping.

    Twitter always does so much - they latch onto someone they hate for no particular reason then don't stop punching down. Gal isn't Meryl Streep but she's perfectly charming and capable in everything I've seen her in. Her line delivery isn't even bad in the trailer, it's intentionally affected.

    I mean, I don’t understand this. You can’t make people go see a movie. People want what they want. And no one wanted to see West Side Story or Nightmare Alley. It’s not like they wanted to and couldn’t. You can’t create demand from nowhere.

    Giacchino's Spiderman work is pretty good, but his score for LOST is untouchable.

    Tobey was incredibly stiff. I didn't think any of his scenes worked that well except the back-cracking scene with Andrew. Andrew was x100 more charming here than in any of his own movies. But the movie was Tom's. I am not a crier but I teared up at his reaction to May's death and his goodbye scene with MJ. Peter just looked completely wrecked at the end and it was genuinely heart-wrenching. (Also shout-out to Benedict Cumberbatch? Did not expect to be as moved as I was by Strange/Peter's goodbye)

    Just saw it. This thing is going to have legs out the wazoo

    WSS just seemed unnecessary. The trailer evoked enough of the original movie for me to be like "Why was this needed?" If there was a twist on it, like it's set in the present day or something, I would be more interested. The no-stars thing is a problem but I don't know how it could've been rectified. J-Lo as Anita? Harry Styles as Tony?

    Critics are getting it at the premiere. The 40 mins is for junket press so they can do interviews.

    It’ll be cool to watch Tom grow up on screen like the Harry Potter kids. But I hope he’s able to deal with it in a healthy way - he sounded unbelievably burnt out in his last interview and I felt very sad for him

    I think the opposite - it'll have great legs. It's coming out during the holiday period; Redacted 1 and Redacted 2 aren't in the film's marketing, so 2nd weekend will draw in the normies who don't pay attention to online chatter once they hear they're in it.

    How is Dune seen as a success with a 40m opening and a 165m budget and a bajillion stars, but Ghostbusters is a disappointment with a 40m opening and a 75m budget and no real stars? Dune’s HBO Max numbers couldn’t have even been that great considering we didn’t get a fawning press release about it

    I mean if there’s any hint of Tobey and Andrew showing up (even if they don’t show their faces), it will smash the first trailer.
  14. snarkmachine
    LOL. How has Charlie not been headhunted by a trade or even a studio at this point?
  15. snarkmachine
    Still trying to get used to pandemic numbers but even taking into account HBO Max, 35-40 still feels soft for Dune considering the enormous marketing push.
  16. snarkmachine
    Deadline did say the 30-32 number was WB’s. Maybe they’re lowballing on purpose so the higher numbers look better?
  17. snarkmachine
    I’m no expert but 30-32 seems way low for what people in the tracking thread were predicting
  18. snarkmachine
    Did anyone else have trouble hearing the dialogue? I could’ve really done with some subtitles
  19. snarkmachine
    Youtube stops counting views after a while to verify if views are real. They’ll probably have the actual view count updated tomorrow.

    Isn’t this coming out like two months after NWH? If NWH is well received, I can see this doing well in the Holland afterglow.
  21. snarkmachine
    Wonder what the industry is going to count as a "win" for Dune. 30m+?
  22. snarkmachine
    i'm glad this movie exists if just for the best opening line of a review roger ebert ever wrote: "Pearl Harbor" is a two-hour movie squeezed into three hours, about how on Dec. 7, 1941, the Japanese staged a surprise attack on an American love triangle."
  23. snarkmachine
    i am seeing this movie OPENING DAY
  24. snarkmachine
    you say this like marvel movies aren’t kids movies too i could see uncharted performing like the first pirates movie if it’s any good
  25. snarkmachine
    wb putting space jam and sony putting uncharted one week after shang-chi seems stupid, wouldn't be surprised to see either of them move to august which is emptier
