wildphantom Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Has the snow and no IMAX played a part here? I saw it in the UK yesterday and there were big crowds. I've heard its OD was up 10% on CF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyGossamer Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Dug The Hunger Games a lot (Saw it twice theatrically), amazed at what a beat-for-beat retread Catching Fire was save for a few scenes including that great cliff-hanger ending (and overpraised as Hell) and frankly not in a rush to see Mockingjay Part I. Maaaaaybe home video. Seeing MJP1 tonight. But, very much agree with what's bolded. Aside from the cool cliffhanger, one awesome setpiece and some good casting, I was pretty bored by it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Never forget. How to bury a 250M tentpole release. I think the template for tentpole marketing has pretty much been set by Marvel and WB in recent years. Show off one trailer early, then patience till 3 months before release, then go all out, 2 new trailers, TV spots, posters, newspaper ads, billboards etc. By the end, the audience is bombed by advertising. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACCA Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 It's posts like this that make me question the sanity of some posters. Seriously. Do some of you drop LSD before you log on here in the morning? Sadly some mods can be included in this as well. It's getting rare to be able to have a civilized, thoughtful box office discussion here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get any popcorn movie as entertaining as MI4, I'll be surprisingly pleased by this Christmas All bets on Into the Woods being the surprisingly good movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvikk Lunsj Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Oh. I'd argue that I haven't seen much for BH6 actually, but I don't watch much TV or animated movies so... I will say that Horrible Bosses 2 is getting pretty good marketing this month tho I don't watch that much TV and never kid cartoons but I saw ads for during sports, news, and Comedy Central. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 So I saw the trailer for Strange Magic. This is pretty much the way of Disney thanking Lucas for selling Star Wars to them, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
