Cmasterclay Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Think Like A Man sold out nine showings at my local theater opening night- shit was crazy. Very underrated movie- 2012 was a great year for comedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Think Like A Man sold out nine showings at my local theater opening night- shit was crazy. Very underrated movie- 2012 was a great year for comedy. It's a very rewatchable movie. I've watched it more on Starz than I've watched my Avengers blu-ray. The jokes just stay fresh and the chemistry's stay interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Speaking of After Earth, I was at a Barnes and Noble yesterday, and saw around 4 After Earth "prequel novels" there. Each of them looks at the life of a member of the extended "Raige" family. Will Smith was really intending for the movie to be a major event across different platforms (movies, TV, books, comics etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattrek Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 TDKR only opened big enough to hit $1 billion total because of goodwill generated by it's predecessor, it had nothing to do with the film's own merits. In case you didn't notice it's legs weren't nearly as good as TDK.Avatar 2 could end up being the biggest piece of crap ever put on film but it will still top $1 billion just because it's the sequel to Avatar.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted July 3, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) If you don't take movies so seriously and have to analyze every single little thing, then these summer movies have been fun a, entertaining ride. This. I feel like more and more expectations for summer movies are getting out of proportion. Summer movies aren't supposed to be Oscar contenders, just like Oscar contenders aren't supposed to be summer movies.

Disappointed cause it actually managed to gross that much despite being a shit movie =| The minions are totally average. Nothing funny about them - and this comes from a guy who laughs at the smallest jokes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
