Weekend#s: Neeson wins. Non Stop 30M | Son of God 26.5M | Lego 21M | Frozen crosses 1B WW

[filmscholar]

The Debate is over.  Liam is an Actor Star Period. This is basically "Taken" on a plane but audiences are eating it up. So props to Qui Gon. 

[kowhite]

..... holy shit.

 

That might be the single greatest, most awesome thing I've ever seen.

 

I am happy to contribute to the awesomeness of your life.

 

Here's the whole bit, for your enjoyment.

Am I right that that's a really large jump for Lego? well more than 200%?

 

And really huge drops for Pompeii and Robocop.

I will say...it's really more Unknown on a plane than Taken.

 

Not that the difference matters.

Hope Non Stop can reach 90m

(Also, Ultra Violet is pretty amazing.

 

 

Ultraviolet is one of the worst movies of all time!

Hollywood was definitely trolling us when they decided on the name for this technology.

 

Kurt Wimmer was probably dancing, though.

The name selection came down to Ultraviolet, Pluto Nash, Jack and Jill, and Manos The Hand of Fate.

 

I think we came out a winner actually.

That thread title  

 

And Shawn was indeed wrong so...

[CJohn]

Jesus Diogo Morgado bringing those box office dollars. I am happy, but where is my 10M+ OD for Gawd Neeson?

I will say...it's really more Unknown on a plane than Taken.

January Jones was so bad in Unknown, I guess better than she was in X-Men: First Class, but she was really just born to play Betty Draper.

It's been around for a year as part of a longer video that dubs Bane's voice for a handful of scenes, most of which Dub Bane rambles about nutrition and dieting

[rainbowtrout]

Should be really interesting to see how Son of God does on Sunday.

 

My theater has a ton of advance sales.

 

Nothing will ever top the old NBC miniseries Jesus of Nazareth for an account of his life.
