Mango Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Sounds like Anchorman 2 will be the very definition of a "love it or hate it" film. Also for Tuesday good number for Frozen, not bad for CF, and meh for DoS. Hopefully they all go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spidey Freak Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 this is no more a cash grab than any superhero or young adult adaptation movie I dunno. Elongating a 300 page book into three 2 and a half to three hour movies is as cash grabby as they come. It's the same reason why the "Part 1's" of the final book adaptations of YA novels tend to underperform, like DH1 and BD1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyla Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I never got the hate directed towards fishnets. Lady was just laying down the facts. oh & 'cashgrab' acusations again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Guys.....guys....AUJ also had just a 1.5% increase during the same time. But AUJ also dropped softer on Monday. I expected a bigger Tues bump to make up for that, since I would have thought people were just waiting for the cheaper ticket prices. This now needs a much higher bump on Friday to get back on track for better legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Just back from my DOS screening. I really really enjoyed it. Pacing was much better than the first one and definitely not as much bloat as some are making out. Barrels scene was great and got plenty of laughter. Banter between Smaug and Bilbo was great. Tauriel and Legolas were complete badasses. I've to say I don't get the hate after watching it. 8/10, better than AUJ and sets up the 3rd part very well. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spidey Freak Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 oh & 'cashgrab' acusations again Lol I didn't realize that the exact same discussion was going on in the Smaug thread until now. Still, 300 page book = trilogy where each movie is 2.5 to 3 hours SCREAMS cash grab on WB's part for greenlighting it, no matter how huge PJ's boner is for the source material.

druv10 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Smaug was brilliant. He looked amazing and Benedict Cumberbatch's voice brought gravitas to him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Right. Which is why I never got the hate directed towards fishnets. Lady was just laying down the facts. Those facts only apply in her own little imaginary fishnets world. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripe Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Maybe next time they'll think twice before turning a 300-page book into a trilogy. Yeah I'm sure that they're firing the stupid guy that greenlit a trilogy that only makes 900M+ WW per film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
