Ah, that fun moment when I know nothing about what constitutes a good or bad dailies drop thus have no idea how sarcastic everyone's being.

As crazy as it sounds, credit placement on promotional materials is often part of a big actor's contract. But yes, marketing departments could at least have it make sense when they compose the alignments. Anyway, as hard as it is to feel strongly about this franchise I wish the movie all the bet. Hopefully, unlike Ghostbusters '16, they actually bothered to write a script.

I've never been so excited at one gigantic corporation buying out another slightly less gigantic corporation!

MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS | 10 NOV 2017 | Fox
Hatebox replied to kayumanggi's topic in Box Office Discussion
The BBC's hyper-lavish And Then There Were None that was on a couple of years ago is really worth watching if you're into this stuff. -
The Goldfinch (September 13, 2019)
Hatebox replied to Ash Skywalker's topic in Box Office Discussion
This book starts brilliantly then falls to pieces. By the final hundred pages I was embarrassed on Tartt's behalf. Can't imagine why it would make a good movie, but at least a sterner editor will streamline the narrative a bit. -
The problem this series will always have is that outside of the park being a disaster, which can only be done once (JW trying it again the second time was pushing it as it was), there's nowhere else for it to go. The route they've taken this time does feel like particularly piss-poor fan-fiction, though. Claire really loves her dinosaurs now.

Genuinely surprised at how poor that trailer is. The movies may be bad but, like Snyder films, should at least provide great promo material. They don't even make Malcolm's inclusion exciting - he's just suddenly there, near the beginning for what no doubt is his only scene. Also, fucking LOL at the idea Claire cares that much about the dinos now. That throwaway scene of her feeling bad about the wounded one in the previous film couldn't have known how much emotional legwork it was going to be doing for the entire sequel setup.

I went to the cinema tonight. The guy right next to me rustled his giant bag of Doritos for a full hour. If I were to say anything, I'd be seen as the troublemaker because loudly eating food in a movie theater is normal. This is why people may not like to go to the cinema if they can watch a new movie at home.

Just saw it. Couple of thoughts: — The movie is... ok. I'm a Room fanatic so I'm basically the target audience, but I also love the book and this just doesn't come close to the emotional depth that had. It can't, it moves too fast to let anything sit. This means the first 40 minutes prior to the on-set scenes are stuck in a weird dramedy limbo that are actually quite boring. But once filming begins it turns into the comedy it was made to be, and works well enough. Franco's decent as Wiseau but probably should have left writing and directing duties to someone else. — I was watching at a relatively small cinema, but it was sold out... and my audience went nuts. They were even clapping at the end. For the UK this is almost unheard of. I don't know what it means for its BO prospects as you kind of have to know/like The Room in the first place to get the most out of the movie, but I think its future status as a cult hit at the very least is in the bag.

Wow, this thread is... intense. I'll never quite understand Disney fanboys who are basically hyped about a gigantic holding company at this point, but whatever floats your boat.
