Ah thanks. I didn't know "Amour" was its real title. -

Can someone give me the link for Armour on RT? Wanted to see what it has, and it won't come up when I search it and I'm spelling it right. -
So true. When I went to the LOTR marathon yesterday I was shocked myself at how diverse the audience was. I saw mother/daughters, buddy groups, girlfriend groups, 60 year olds, 10 year olds, and pretty much everything else. And no one group dominated. It was the total opposite of when I did the Avengers marathon and it was almost all guys under 40 and a lot of what you would call "comic geeks." LOTR really did hit every audience which is great for Hobbit's OW.

There may not be any thing new of note but I'm dying to know what the holdovers did. I think there's gonna be a lot of tiny drops this weekend.
-
I'm expecting sub 30% drops for a lot of things this weekend (Pi, Lincoln, Ralph, Flight, maybe even Skyfall). There's nothing new to see and a ton of movies right now have great WOM.
-
I think this makes Baumer very happy.
-
Just realized Lincoln is already DDL's highest grossing movie. About time he's in a bonafide blockbuster. Well deserved.
-
Hopefully Skyfall stays #1 till The Hobbit now.
-
This two week movie drought will only help its opening. People will be clamoring for something new to see come mid december.
-
STOP, IT BURNS IT BURNS!!!
-
Please don;'t bring this up. Yes I know it's inevitable, but until I'm forced to face it's reality I'd like to live in ignorance about it.
-
Very cool. However I'm sure Spielberg will manage at least one $200m grosser before 2020 if this doesn't hit it.
-
Lol, I think you're missing the point.The point being a house really can be lifted by balloons. Obviously they exaggerated it for an animated movie, but it can be done nonetheless.
-
10x is highly unlikely for Lincoln, but with WOM being so good, the holidays, and extreme awards buzz you never know. I'll stick with it having The Blind Side's multi though (7.5x).
-
Told you guys this month was headed for huge things. Lincoln is surprising even me though. I thought $120m tops.
-
Well now that would be an Avatar multi.
-
I think Lincoln will be getting a Blind Side multi.

How about love, love, love!

DINOSAUR's trailer was EPIC. It still kinda is:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCqYuBIFE5IToo bad everything that followed that opening scene was atrocious. I've always wondered though why that concept of using the opening sequence for a trailer hasn't really been used again much. It can be a great way to sell it.
-
It still floors me that those two movies both did near 600m adjusted DOM. Makes you realize how far the franchise actually did fall.
-
I guess, but honestly I never expected it to do more than exactly what it's doing so it doesn't even seem like it's underperforming to me. Just doing as expected (for me at least).
-
Aside from Man With the Iron Fists (which was never gonna do anything anyways) all the new releases this month have performed great. Even Red Dawn is making a dent.
-
Yeah, 200m+ weekend for sure. Crazy for Thanksgiving. Last year's top 12 was $155m.
-
I said the trailer was straightforward. You knew what the premise and what it was about so people could then decide if that appealed to them. Cloud Atlas' trailer was impossible to derive the basic premise from and therefore it couldn't appeal to people. I love the movie but even I can 100% understand how and why it didn't do any better. Most people aren't gonna "get" it and it's not gonna be for them. And have you seen Pi? You're missing out big time by the way if you're gonna write Pi off like that without even seeing it.
