I'm not talking from an artistic standpoint, or which effects/movie you like better, etc. But from a purely technically standpoint, the sfx/cgi in the 2 hobbit movies are leaps and bounds better than those in the LOTR trilogy.
Also, WB is a bit too optimistic with that Sun drop, but ow will still start with a 7 so it saves some face. OS total will still be over $700m so it'll push $950-$1b ww total and be a huge hit, albeit a "boring" one as those who do not like LOTR/TH will say.

I am not. The effects in ROTK ten years ago were better than the ones in DoS.
Either go see an optometrist or there's no way you're serious. The cgi/sfx in the original LOTR trilogy are incredibly dated and unless you're talking about the practical orcs, etc. you are just wrong.

You should get your money back.Decent holds for both CF and Frozen IMOSo today in film theory I learned four things:1. Frozen is a Pixar film and ever since Pixar was bought about Disney, Disney hasn't done any of its own animation. (I actually corrected my teacher on this one.)2. Thor: The Dark World is overperforming. Marvel expected 150M total gross.3. Spirited Away wouldn't have won the Oscar if it weren't for Disney.4. Philomena is currently playing in more theaters than Catching Fire.

Yup, reminds me (somewhat) of last year when I got home from TDKR midnight and couldn't wait to talk about it and the midnight #s and then the story of the shootings started and it changed everythingEvery time something like this happens it dampens the mood, at least for me. I was planning on watching Catching Fire tonight but after hearing about Paul Walkers' death I just lost the energy or eagerness to go. Honestly BO numbers and all that don't matter right now. We lost an entertainer at a very young age and one of the key characters in one of the most popular film franchises of this era. RIP Paul Walker
This is similar mood changing

Ah, ok gotcha thanks.They went down, the quoted post is from Friday.
-
I'm probably not understanding your posts/updates, but the sellouts went down? Or is this a new update for new times?As of 11:43p.m. eastern timeCatching Fire - 20 Sellouts in Dallas, TXFrozen - 35 Sellouts in Dallas, TX
-
Yeah, saw newest update by Rth, nice for both.I know it's not important right now, but those numbers seem pretty decent for CF and Frozen
-
Ok, you just don't always have to try so hard to be funny.Please accept my sincere appologies for my lame joke about Paul Walker.This not what lawsbians do.

You're not really funny under normal circumstances so you really shouldn't try to be now.Who should play Paul Walker in the Fast é Furious biobic remakes ?Zac Efron's son ?

Please, deceiving trailer is SWATH, that was the worst movie I saw last year and felt legitimately tricked by the trailers, MOS was good.Back to numbers, amazing for both CF and Frozen, great to see a record breaking weekend outside of summer.
-
Yeah I wish blocking also blocked quotes.You can stop quoting that guy if you want.
-
Ok thanks. I didn't know today was pretty much a holiday for everyone.
Yeah, outside of retail most businesses are closed today. Was going to see CF this afternoon, but may avoid the insane crowds this weekend and catch it next week instead.
-
No sir, I don't like it.

LOL well you got to wait until Monday when the actuals come out to see if it actually drops. If it does then you "called it". But if it doesn't then you didn't. But nothing has been proven yet. We'll see tomorrow. I actually think it's legit.
We know what's going to happen tomorrow, we know.
Well, whataya knowLOL You mean you hope!

called itTDKR will keep the 2D ow crown, but Lionsgate will fudge for Sun/weekend estimates to get 2D ow record headlines, but it will be under TDKR once Monday actuals come out.

really loving this site lol
where is the MoS discussion thread btw? or anything related to MoS
Don't worry, we'll just imagine all your every Marvel movie made and to be made in the future >>>> MOS posts.

Yeah, I loved Iron Man, but the ending with Obidiah was underwhelming ... Whiplash was a disgrace in IM2 ... and Mandarin .. um, yeah ... I admit I laughed, but seriously ... and then we have fire breathing Killian as well.
Yeah for some reason as good as the IM movies are (great in the case of the first) they just haven't had a really good main villain in any of them.

I love the Joker, but Two/Face is my favorite Batman villain, Joker #2. For some reason I just like Rises and Returns more than their predecessors.
Two Face and The Joker are both in TDK you know?

Best female performance in a superhero movie in history!
Does Portman in V for Vendetta count?
Weekend Estimates: The Hobbit - 73.6M | Frozen - 22.2M | Madea - 16M

This is true because, like JP, the original trilogy used so many practical effects and those will always stand the test of time over whatever cgi and computer effects were used 10+ years prior. I only mean the cgi and computer effects of the original trilogy look dated, not the overall effects and look of the movie, which still has a great feel and atmosphere, etc.
