A wee bout of what?

 

 

at least somebody else got it

How many $35M movies have 0% drops on Memorial weekend?

Bridesmaids with 0.7% decrease. I don't see IM3 performing that well. I think 25% decresse is very reasonable.

Anyone notice how ST12 and IM3 have nearly the same posters?

And as I said Shrek 1.

[zackzack]

why are people so surprised though? this is in range of what Trek is supposed to be doing. It looks to low to me here because I've seen so many 120/350, 115/400, 135/380 predicts, but blocking those and analyzing it, this is about right.

 

Never thought this one would hit $350 million, let alone $400 million.

ST is too cerebral for GA. Having an alien sharing command over a

spaceship must be one of the reasons.

Okay, so if ED is predicting Bridesmaids or Shrek 1 legs for IM3, then there's a chance it could beat Avatar.

I wanted to give another example.

I want Meet the Peebles numbers

"Cerebral" is the last word in the world I would use to describe the ST reboots.

Okay here:

There is a movie about a man who falls in love with a alien and turns into one.Its called Avatar. On paper that plot sounds like it flop

A ten-foot tall blue alien with a tail.

A ten-foot tall blue alien with a tail.

And somehow humans are EVIL

Anyone notice how ST12 and IM3 have nearly the same posters?

 

The 2 movies share more than just that:

1. Terrorist villain

2. Protagonist with serious health issue

3. Image of hero/es falling from the sky

4. The good characters having power as the villains

(Pepper injected with Extremis serum, Kirk with Khan

super regenerative blood)

5. Home of the Good guy being decimated by the villain

 

Did Lindelof do a re-write of IM3? Did Damon rewrite

every summer movie since PROMETHEUS?

Well that's not much of a stretch.

Spoilers.

We won't know the true BO numbers cause they accept bus passes instead of money now for PEEBLES.

For GA, it is too cerebral. For Trekkies it is Monster Truck Night.

Grr.
