filmscholar Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Not anymore. His past three or four pictures have been stinkers. True, "Old Boy" and "St Anna" bombed pretty bad. But Spike isn't known for blowing the box office wide open. It's more about his creativity, messages and viewpoints. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more about his creativity, messages and viewpoints. Which confuses him. He doesn't understand why more people don't show up for his movies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Miracle at St. Anna is one of the worst films I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyevenstar22 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 so i'm thinking of doing a double feature and the showtimes for both synch up well with 10 mn between each not counting previews so it would be planet of the apes /guardians galaxy either tonight (6/9pm) but probably tomorrow afternoon (3/6pm) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I can't believe that number for TMNT though. Why must shit movies like this do so good? We're certainly not encouraging Hollywood to improve quality. I mean why should they when half assed garbage can make freakin 60m+ on OW? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stingray Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Spike has done enough quality material to last him a lifetime, imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancyarcher Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Which confuses him. He doesn't understand why more people don't show up for his movies. Some of his movies have actually made some money like Inside Man and Malcolm X. Inside Man's success was due to Denzel more though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I like some of his movies and Malcolm X is his best imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmscholar Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 They are saying Turtles Hype and WOM is being driven by the Young Fans. Where as My generation Liked the movie but found flaws. I agree with this. My generation was naturally going to have a more critical eye as we grew up with it from the beginning but this new generation has never had a LIVE ACTION Turtles movie so this is all new to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I for one am just happy the box office seems to be booming here in August. GOTG, TMNT, I don't care. Things are doing well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmscholar Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 I think July was so disappointing that Guardians and Turtles is making us extra happy. I can officially say that "Fast 7" and "Jupiter" moving definitely hurt this summer big time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancyarcher Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Yes, I like some of his movies and Malcolm X is his best imo. That and Do The Right Thing are his best. Denzel Washington's performance is great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
