Jack Nevada Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 The Counselor is slick and calculated but there's some seriously fucked up stuff in it. A scene involving the use of a "bolito" was genuinely "oh shit, wtf is that" inducing. There's also a quick shot of a pickled dead body in a barrel covered in human feces that screwed with me for hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Well, fuck it. I'm a proud independent woman who's gonna watch Frozen when it comes out. Wait, you're a woman? I still don't understand how, even yesterday, Frozen was leading nearly every theater you posted, had 3D and yet still managed to open lower than Catching Fire. Something's fishy here. I think he said that all the sellouts were 2D showings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviefanatic Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I still don't understand how, even yesterday, Frozen was leading nearly every theater you posted, had 3D and yet still managed to open lower than Catching Fire. Something's fishy here. Frozen was only leading big time in Texas and CF managed to get closer with night shows. Everywhere else, CF was even or ahead. Also CF had far more showtimes than Frozen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChD Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Wait, you're a woman? I think he said that all the sellouts were 2D showings That was a joke, meaning that if the movie is for girls as Movie man said, I'd proudly become one to watch it.

Something's fishy here. Catching Fire had more than two times the showing, its the same today, Frozen may sell out every showing with 40 overall, but Catching Fire doesn't have to come close to that if it has 80 or more showings.

Mr Terrific Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Really hated TC. Should've been released in 1991 with Jeff Fahey, C. Thomas Howell and Joan Severance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Nevada Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) Didn't Pitt end up ... horrible? Yeah, but Michael Fassbender has to live the rest of his (short) miserable life knowing his wife was killed and used in a snuff film. I'd say that's pretty bad.

Something's fishy here.Simple answer to that. CF had double if not triple or quadruple the show times that frozen had + matinees ticket prices for kids. CF had less room to sellout with show times playing every 15-30 mins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also CF had far more showtimes than Frozen. Not to mention all the kid tickets Frozen is selling. I'm sure it's at least 70% families seeing this.

Oh... that's a good point. I wouldn't count her lasting more than a year without Solomon there to protect her though. Y'know, 12YAS didn't do much for me when I first watched it, but thinking back on it, I'm more and more impressed by it. It's definitely a movie that grows on you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
