    The Snowman (2017)

    in Review That Movie! (Spoilers Allowed)

    Posted

    It wasn't hilaribad like the Room and not something I'd want to rewatch for fun, but I couldn't help but laugh several times. There was a particular concert scene that I'll never forget. Overall, it has terrible editing with random scene jumps from present to past without any cues. Waste of talented actors. The dubbing was obvious (but understandable). A friend asked if a scene was a flashback and was actually unsure of about the fate of Rebecca Fergeson's character. Random story threads were added and dropped and the movie had several characters make stupid choices. The police also seemed uncaring and incompetent. And the ending was meh. At least we saw that Norway is beautiful in the winter.

    Cinemark

     

    Trailers: arrived late so missed most of it

    80% of Justice League (laughs)

    Jigsaw

     

    Murmurs and laughter during several scenes. The guy next to me said he had to take some business calls and actually answered the phone in the theater before he made the wise decision to leave. Same guy called the movie trash at the end. Someone in my group fell asleep midway. Whole theater seemed relieved when it ended.

    was being very rude

    I try not to get involved in the 'fan wars' much and really should've stuck to that today. I apologize for contributing to the derailment of this thread. As far as the trailer goes...I'm not much of a horror movie fan and don't know anything about the comic books, but I like the actors. It looks interesting, but wasn't what I'd expected.

    Challenging predictions isn't taking it personally. No one challenged my predictions on SW, they labelled me a fanboy and chastised me. If someone challenged me, I could have seen it differently.

     

    I don't have time to care about how much a movie make. I don't read someone not seeing JL's enormous potential as them disrespecting my mom. 

     

    I think most found your BO prediction reasonable. That's why you weren't challenged about it. High 600m to high 700m has been the range I've seen posted so far. No one thinks TLJ is going to match TFA. It's just that you kept repeating yourself as though you wanted a reaction. At least that's what it came off like to me. It's fine if that wasn't your intention.

    I genuinely like the JJ Abrams Star Trek movies more than the Kathleen Kennedy Star Wars era, am I a bad person now?

     

    You guys take this too seriously. 

     

    I don't think anyone would care as much if you afforded others the same generosity to voice their opinions, good or bad, on movies you like and are excited for. Anytime someone disagrees with you on Justice League's potential BO or the trailers, you take it as an affront. Now you're doing the same thing to other movies and expect everyone to accept it.

    Umberto Gonzalez has gone on a twitter rant at the fan wars.

     

     

    Theres a lot more posts on his page.

     

    He's not the only one. Mark Hughes did as well. Oh well. They can admonish, but based on the replies, the fans don't care and will continue to feel justified bashing movies that are too 'fun' or too 'dark'.

    Basically the netflix generation (mine) just stayed at home  :sadben:

     

    @TwoMisfits said it best. Maybe the marketing should've included exposing mainstream and young audiences to the first movie. I'm not sure where it's shown in schools, but I'd never heard of this and the first movie until 2 months ago. Apparently it's showing on SyFy this week, and is on YouTube to rent, but making it easily available by having it on Netflix or Amazon may have helped. The fact that it's a sequel promotes the idea that you need to watch the first one, despite assurances on the contrary. Plus yeah, these past few weeks haven't been pleasant.

    Obviously this opening is disappointing, but calling BR2049 a bomb when we haven't even seen OS numbers nor the actual DOM number is BOT overreacting at its finest. Let's at least wait until Monday before we declare it a bomb. Bomb is a strong word that's being used way too often for my taste.

     

    According to Deadline:

     

    Quote

    One financier remarked tonight that they weren’t impressed by the early European B.O. results for the sequel, and that it’s now up to Asia to save Blade Runner 2049.

     

    It doesn't mean much, but isn't promising.

    Welp. There goes my derby. Not really interested in watching the movie, but figured with everyone being so hyped about it plus higher presales, that it'd at least get past 50m. It worked for It, I was hoping WB would get BR49 there too. Good thing I went down from 63m to 54m, but it's still going to miss that by >10m....

    "44 million just got the memo" ... is he trying to convey that 44 million people got fired. was the entire population of California including babies and undocumented folks working on the film? Deciphering Tyrese is more entertaining than Fast films. I will give him that.

     

    I think he meant Vin Diesel's followers on Instagram. He has 44m.

    I have watched Leighton Meester in things outside of gossip girl and to be honest, none of those performances made me want to see more. I definitely think she was a great Blair and I do think she's a really good actress but I don't know, I'm just not interested in seeing her in anything. 

     

    Yeah I guess that's what it was for Leighton, in that she stood out in one role, but hasn't managed to do so in other roles. Whereas Blake is more memorable in all her roles.
