    Friend of mine (and huge Room fan) saw an early screening of this, said it lived up to the hype and was surprisingly dramatic.

    100% and 9.2 after 12 reviews? This franchise is an RT God.
  3. Hatebox
    Reviews are actually better than I expected. This was always going to be fluff.

    I enjoy this show in fits and bursts, but it's such a hot mess. The basic storytelling mechanics in any given episode are often pretty terrible.

    Hastily cobbled together shitty comedy sequel no-one particularly wanted doesn't do well shocker.
  6. Hatebox
    Yeah, he's... not well.

    If this is true to the source material, it should. The book is much more about a man whose ambition wildly exceeds his talent and his ability to kid himself than merely funny anecdotes from the set. (Whether the movie actually captures that, I've no idea.)

    Holy fucking shit at IT's WW number. I hadn't followed it all beyond its domestic OW.

    Just browsing Jackman's IMDB, his only real critical successes outside of X-Men films are The Prestige and Prisoners. I like the guy, but it's shocking how bad he is at choosing movies.

    I can't remember a non-franchise film that's been advertised this much in recent memory. Seriously, they've gone absolutely nuts marketing this in the UK.

    Not the most exciting trailer in the world, but it looks way too deliberately uncomfortable to be brushed off as Oscar bait. It's also going to have a lot of Weinstein references in the reviews.
  12. Hatebox
    Yeah, this is really funny. It doesn't hold back at all on how horrific this period in Russia was (lots of people die, brutally), and the laugh out loud dialogue combines to make it almost surreal. The 100 minutes flew by.
  13. Hatebox
    How come? (Asking only because you're more thoughtful than most, not getting defensive.)

    Fassbender suffers from Colin Farrell syndrome: a character actor cast in leading man roles because of his looks. He'll never be a draw, but I've always found him very watchable.
  15. Hatebox
    There's a weird strain of people on this forum who don't seem to appreciate that Shame is a legitimately good movie.
  16. Hatebox
    By every account it is. But I'm sure if it's not to your taste the next feature length Faig/Apatow improv class will be along shortly.

    Seeing this tomorrow, can't wait. A comedy film with actual jokes, what a novelty!
  18. Hatebox
    Lol, this pretty much sums up the movie business in 2017.
  19. Hatebox
    So much wrong with this it's hard to know where to start.

    I didn't care much for Interstellar but it had a helluva impressive run both dom and OS all things considered.
  21. Hatebox
    Can't be bothered to check the thread but I assume we've already had a laugh at how much the poster rips off Inception. I do a double-take every time I see it out and about:

    I'd love to have been in the pre-production meetings to see how a bunch of people agreed to spend that much money on a sequel to a film that's partly famous for being a box office disappointment. Maybe they saw Tron Legacy's haul and thought 'it'll be fine'.
  23. Hatebox
    In fairness Ghostbusters '16 only had about three defenders on here. Three more than it probably deserves, but still not many. As for JW, I'm unremitting in how bad I think it is, but I'd never deny it was popular. It is quantifiably very popular... insofar as people think of it at all.
  24. Hatebox
    I'd be very surprised if BR has good holds. I liked it well enough, but "it's so fucking long and slow" isn't the kind of WOM that usually predicates great legs.
  25. Hatebox
    Nolan films at least make money.
