Pretty sure, the police will have zero effect on this film's box office. They certainly won't stop me from going to see it.

Probably right.

Well, they might get more people to watch it. Streisand effect, right back at ya.

Sometimes, any publicity is good publicity.

Boom, it's working.

[GumbyandPokey]

I'll probably see it but will buy a ticket for a different movie and walk into this one.

Tarantino's grandstanding deserves the boycott.

[Webslinger]

Honestly, given the three-hour running time and the fact that the majority of the film is reportedly set in a single room, any outside controversies that Tarantino courts are the least of The Hateful Eight's box office worries.

As a huge fan of all things Tarantino, I'll still pay full-admission to see it on the first night on which it is available to me.

[Travod]

Honestly still not fond of the plot (though I don't really know specifics beyond the trailers), but Tarantino is the one person who could pull off three hours of dialogue in one room.

[MovieMan89]

Wow, this is sounding more like a box office failure by the day. Really wish I could revise my winter game prediction, which I had already adjusted significantly down.

not going wide to January, I think this movie could underperform

[filmlover]

It still seems silly to me that this and The Revenant (two R-rated westerners) are going to head to head, both in limited and in wide release.

All of January is nuts for competition. Lots of things could underperform.

Hey, the budget is way lower than his last couple of films.

They know. They're prepared. And I prepared...

 

FOR AWESOME.

Didn't even know he said that.

Indeed, It's a very unfortunate statement.

[Ozymandias]

Lol even Quentin Tarantino's Dad came out and basically called him an idiot.

[TalismanRing]

The police should be more concerned with improving training and calling out police brutality among the ranks than re-fortifying their blue wall.

[CoolioD1]

it blows my mind that people give a shit.
