  1. Geez, you guys hate Joker more than you hate Mario! Who's the third in the Unholy Trinity for y'all?
  2. Pls send moar money to the impoverished Lady Gaga so she can move out of her Baba Yaga house and have a real TV, she is so poor she has to eat possum stew to survive.
  3. Audiences had already given up on the DCEU continuity. And done so BEFORE Flash released.
  4. I'm now convinced Sneider isn't an actual "insider" but a paid PR hitman who works to talk down other studio's movies. Wasn't he the guy who said there was no way Dune 2 would actually make money?
  5. well known impoverished female Lady Gaga, who was so materially deprived she had to serve drinks to Joaquin on set just to pay off her college tuition
  6. The Shootist was not a super phyiscal final role by Wayne's standards. Dial of Destiny has certain scenes where you would basically have to do a lot of fakey stuff to convince people Ford is actually in the scene.
  7. It's not advertising so much as it is studios bitching about their unwillingness to distribute. At least Coppola controls his own movie, as horrifically expensive as it must be for him.
  8. Some of us don't particularly like the "star era" mentality even though we grew up with it. Also the many remakes of old (and now unwatched) TV shows that used to clutter up multiplexes.
  9. Coppola needs to take this to Venice or Cannes. Otherwise the studio heads will continue to be morons. Of course he probably could have sold it to Netflix for 150 mil if this was still 2017.
  10. Ah yes remakes of 80s TV shows starring Lee Majors, truly what auteur cinema is all about!
  11. Randolph isn't a "journalist" in any serious sense of the word, she's a film blogger. This is the equivalent of MrBeast trying to appropriate a Nelson Mandela speech.
  12. DCEU was a rotting corpse even before Black Adam, but this sounds like a stunningly unimaginative reboot. Really would've preferred Brainiac or Kalibak as an opening foe for Supes than Luthor AGAIN and Ultraman is a lame character who leaves the door open for even more multiverse shenanigans. Because that worked out so well for DC the last time.
  13. It's a movie where the Griswold family has to drive all the way from Chicago to LA to visit Walley World in the rebellious California province. Along the way they encounter murder, cannibalism, and Cousin Ed gets infected by Cordyceps and turns into a zombie. On the plus side Christie Brinkley is an immortal radioactive vampire and finally does it with Clark.
  14. If California or Texas honestly believed the US was on its way out the two states would be the first to secede. The bigger mental problem is why they'd be allies given their current policies though.
  15. I actually got the Ghostbusters stat wrong. It's closer to needs 11 mil than 12 mil. Basically it would have to somehow get dumped from almost all the theaters it's currently playing at to fail to hit 100 mil.
  16. Except I get the impression Gladiator 2 was going to get whatever remaining money Paramount has for marketing no matter what. I've seen theater standees for IF but not many trailers or much attempt at hyping the movie. I wouldn't want One being promoted with the effort I've seen put into IF.
  17. If TFOne is getting delayed, it's possible it may be because Paramount is in such dire straits they can't actually market their movies until a buyout occurs.
  18. Okay, why would theaters be so deeply invested in Panda 4 by the 1st week of May? It's the second oldest big movie still playing and it did "good but not super blockbuster" results. I honestly think both Dune and Panda 4 will basically be gone by the 1st week of May. There's only so many little kids whose parents will take them to see Kung Fu Panda and most of them will have seen it by 1st week of May anyway.
  19. I'm not feeling Fall Guy's buzz (it seems largely restricted to here) but I doubt most theaters would keep a 2 month old Dreamworks film that was already streaming onscreen by the time it comes out.
  20. Attracting that audience is a very low priority once the actual summer drops start. It's useful for holding pattern months but Migration had to deal with mainly low demand movies in Jan/Feb. Things that actually eat up many screens will release in May. This basically means Panda is stuck with April only as its "easy month". I expect some attrition to kick in once we're about halfway through April but the real impact to be in 1st week May.
