Now I'm curious what movie he was actually talking about.
Maybe it's Collateral Beauty or Live by Night

Welp. I've tried being optimistic to the end, but it's becoming increasingly clear the writing is on the wall.
well... he is not talking about Passengers. But i still think this will get mixed reviews.

I think this is going to need obscenely glowing reviews to find an audience. The sci-fi junkies will all be flocking to Rogue One and the adult audience will have MBTS and La La Land, leaving this in no-man's land if it can't look like worthy competition.
lol, MBTS and La La Land?

that's it?
I mean, it's not hard to figure that out based on the trailer alone, and I did think that could be the big twist, but I expected them to go in a different direction as it was so obvious.
Yeah, so weird Sony hided that in the trailer.

Going into Jimmy Kimmel
Wondering if I even want to go back and read the earlier pages. sorry Ann Thompson doesn't like it, but her statement that she doesn't like the concept of the script makes me think it might not be because the movie is bad but because (if you read the script) there is something in there that could be controversial. We'll find out.She says she doesn't like its gender dynamics, so that is pretty certainly it.
Jen doesn't plan on playing the same part in every movie all her life. She is not Ree Dolly or Katniss Everdeen in this movie. But I haven't heard one thing said against the acting or her ability to play the part this is.
In any event, give some who are not always easy to please DO like it, I'm pretty sure I will.
As to why we care about reviews it is because an original story is more vulnerable to sniping than a franchise, and we want it to do well. Reviews certainly won't change my view of the movie itself, one way or the other.
I think it's clear that she didn't like the core concept of this film
Spoilerhe woke her up just because he was lonely, lied to her and changed her life.
but it was what the story based on, so...I can feel this may really annoy certain people, especially some feminists. Moral issue exits in this story.

I still check this out for myself, wouldn't be the first big hollywood lovestory that got punned because of the love themes.
Online blogging is owned by fanboys and nerds today and those are the ones that might have issues here.We'll see what the problem is. If there is a problem at all.
I just don't understand, why Sony is unable to do something against the bad buzz all their movies get. They could throw out fake good reviews, but nothing to counter the bad buzz, that was out months ago. The studio seems paralyzed.That's Sony, they did bad marketing. Just like Ghostbusters.

The ending is apparently very different now compared to the Black List draft. Spaihts did an interview today (pretty interesting) where he said that it had changed a lot and that he wrote new scenes for the ending during filming and a little moment during post. He didn't give much detail (of course) except that it took some time to figure out how to "land" the relationship. I haven't read the script though.
i know, but judging from some early buzz and the trialer, i found that a newer version i read was pretty close to the final one
Spoilerfor example, they saved the others at last, the captain(Andy Garcia) shows up at the end.

Anne Thompson didn't like this. She typically is easy on movies, so that ain't a good sign.

This place is so negative. I've made my peace with a mixed to negative response to this movie a long while ago, but it really feels like some people here are just eager for it to fail.
I still hope that even without great reviews it could do well enough, because you know the lesson for studios would be "don't invest in original scripts, more remakes!!!".
Oh well.
Yeah, i notice that. Actually, in IMDB, you can see some contents are exactly the same as here, posted by some new registered account. Some people are eager for it to bomb and they really work hard on it.

Seems like the real problem of this film is the story itself? I mean I find some reaction on twitter and IMDB, most of them said the visuals are cool (even some people hate this film), the acting is fine.
I read the script and i really like it, though some part of it is indeed controversial. And the ending, very emotional but maybe kind of depressing for some people.

Pratt and Lawrence valiantly try to elevate the material with their individual charms, but there is a palpable lack of romantic chemistry, while the director, Morten Tyldum, fails to steer John Spaihts' undercooked script into a narratively cohesive whole.wow, so much hate here
