Saw Silence of the Lambs. Pretty good. Hated how every dialogue scene was shot with the two actors talking directly to the camera. Also didn't care for Anthony Hopkins ultra-hammy and completely non-threatening performance.

 

One of the greatest imo. He did win the academy award for best actor as well. It is an excellent, excellent film. One of the best thrillers ever. And Hopkins gives a terrifying performance. This is far from a unique opinion.

btw, I'm THRILLED and AMAZED and OVERJOYED that McDonald's sells the most hamburgers. What a triumph of taste.

 Wait, you don't think big macs are delicious???  What's this foolishness??

Again, that has nothing to do with the amount grossed in a weekend or particular gross, just with the overall gross.

Well actually some deals pertain to the  first dollar gross...  So a studio might fudge THE OW so they dont have to pay out whats owed  during the first 2 weeks  is what Im saying .. Some deals pay participants way before the actual finally tally at the domestic and worldwide BO Tele buddy.    I Dont think studios do too much of those nowadays though.

NCIS most watched series in the world. Haters can suck it. A triumph of the human spirit

I am not surprised. The shows that go for a younger target get huge amount of downloads. Nobody sees Walking Dead and Game of Thrones on TV here. 

 

Duh, we got the second season of GoT last month

Good for you.

Duh, we got the second season of GoT last month

But we don't. We get every GoT episode 48 hours after it passes in America. And Walking Dead just 20 hours after it passes in America.

Where I live there are partys thrown for every Walking Dead episode. 

[Jack Nevada]

Really?? He scared the hell outta me when I first saw it!

Buffalo Bill was pretty scary but Hannibal Lecter was just Hamfest 2000. I didn't buy Anthony Hopkins for a second.

But again, whether it grosses 100m by Sunday or Monday doesn't change that at all. It's still going to gross the same basic amount in 2 weeks or whatever. So it's really a moot point... unless you think Paramount is cheating every single day in order to save a nebulous amount of profit participation later.

 

But I don't think you think that.

[Kalel009Shel]

Mabey the actuals will go up

We are going to have a nice laugh at these haters of Bay if it does...And I think a nice increase is not out  question  either...

[Moviedweeb]

Good for you.

 

Just an opinion. If someone told me that Daniel Day Lewis gave a poor performance in There Will be Blood, I'd be compelled to respond similarly. But again, just an opinion.

Have you seen the movie? 

[Dementeleus]

Buffalo Bill was pretty scary but Hannibal Lecter was just Hamfest 2000. I didn't buy Anthony Hopkins for a second.

 

The sequels reduce Lecter even more by starting to give him a dubious "code"... he only eats people that cross him, or offend his tastes, or what have you. The threat of him was that he was a total wildcard and complete psychopath. By changing that, it takes away much of his threat (whether you felt it was great to begin with or not).

Ridiculous. Everyone has to like what everyone else likes and everyone must agree all the time.

[Deathlife]

Wow, massive debut for TF4.Again, I'm not at all surprised and I don't think anyone should be at this point.People need their giant robot fix.

[Catty]

We are so opposite - Buffalo Bill makes me laugh - especially when he's dancing!

[Chewy]

 

look how fast they're typing though

[Jack Nevada]

There were some great sequences, though. Lecter's escape is a superb thriller setpiece.

[Moviedweeb]

Will Edge hit $100m DOM? Is it possible?
