Weds Numbers 6/4 Early proj Malef 5.6 DOFP 2.8 AMW 1.4

I'm really curious to see what his online hype translates into box office wise for TFIOS. This one is a true wild card.

How much do you think it'll make overseas?

[The Stingray]

Collateral on TV. Man, nobody shoots LA like Michael Mann.

How much do you think it'll make overseas?

Is the book even that popular internationally? Like, enough even for Divergent numbers?

That's what I'm wondering. I know it hasnt been translated into Finnish.

I'm not sure. There seem to be a lot of tweets from international fans saying they won't get the movie to such and such date.

It seems to be a U.S. thing only, so no.

Good.

LOL This argument is still going on.

The fact that you've read tfios doesn't make you any better than people who haven't.

Truth.

 

Anathem would be pretty great as a TV series. You could pitch it as, what, Pillars of the Earth crossed with Star Wars.

Dafuq? Are these people for real? Christ!

[CoolioD1]

that's a bunch of bullshit. seriously, fuck teenagers.

 

except don't do that. that would be inappropriate.

[Plain Old Tele]

It's going to make a ton of money, but Christ, what a bunch of self-entitled brats!

Man oh man, it would be great. (In fact, any of Stephenson's books would be pretty cool as some sort of adaptation.)

 

In fact, I might be underrating Anathem a bit. It's been a little while since I read it. Good lord, talk about brain-expanding. The way the protagonist's universe (and, by proxy, the reader's universe) expands is just mind-blowingly awesome.

We'll see if this holds true.

VIDEO: Will 'The Fault In Our Stars' Force Stodgy Hollywood to Realize Social Media = $$? #TFiOS http://bit.ly/TiXi9V 

 

The YA adaptation has been a juggernaut on social media for months inspiring fans to make GIFs, post on Facebook and watch the trailer

But Hollywood has just realized that fervor might translate into ticket sales at the box office.

Studio executives and consultants are cautious about linking social buzz to box office performance.

That has to change, as more reliable data turns social followings (and online data in general) into a predictive force.

lol lots of comic fans are the same way. You aren't allowed to critique a movie unless you know every issue of the comic backwards and forwards

 

At least these teenagers have the excuse of being teenagers

Dwight Howard. This day is coming full circle now.

[Plain Old Tele]

Dwight Howard fucks teenagers?! Is this kinda like Craig James killing five hookers?*

Must. Refrain. From. Singer. Jokes!

 

Well, if they're over the age of consent...

Yeah. It took me a while to get into it, but when I did, it's so captivating.

Part of the reason Reamde was so disappointing to me was because it followed up Anathem and was pretty much lacking in every single way.
