There's no such thing as bad dick!!!

 

Expect if the dick's pathetically small.

[Kalderic]

Eh, passable numbers. Good to see Kingsman holding up fairly well.

[DAJK]

I wonder what Focus' CinemaScore is going to be; I have a feeling it could go either way with this one, and it will be interesting to see it hold up next weekend.

Focus got a B, Lazarus got a C-

[DAJK]

Oh it was already scored?!?!

Where have I been today??

[DAJK]

My friends came over and tries making me a Wes Anderson fan because the only movie of his I had previously seen was Grand Budapest. We watched Fantastic Mr. Fox and Moonrise Kingdom and they were both great!

Really dug MAPS TO THE STARS, which is a very nasty piece of work from Mr Cronenberg. Julianne Moore is legendary. Definitely worth renting.

 

Hope this finds an audience on demand. Julianne Moore really is a legend.

BN, what's the movie about? How's it compare to other Cronenberg fare? (without spoiling it please)

[Ryan Reynolds]

I wonder if Olivia Wilde will ever be in a film not considered a disappointment

Just about every film is disappointing in some fashion to someone.

true, but Olivia has had bad luck, even Tron Legacy a solid performer was a disappointment at least for Disney, at least she does not take blame for flops

The Hollywood propaganda machine tried so hard to push Olivia and make her the next big thing. She's never gonna properly happen.

It's about the movie industry and how toxic it can be. In one scene, Julianne Moore learns that the actress who beat her out for a part has to pull out because her child has died. So Julianne is getting the part now. And she does a happy dance in celebration of her good fortune/the child's death. 

 

It's not his best but it's watchable and entertaining in a cold twisted way. 

[Krissykins]

Hoping for at least 4.5m for Lazarus Effect so it has a chance to stay over $10m.

Hahaha NOPE.

[Krissykins]

Have I missed RTH's numbers?

[Avatree]

Her was a disappointment? Tron Legacy? In Time? 

[Krissykins]

Her was a disappointment? Tron Legacy? In Time?

She has a horrific track record at the box office.

Her and Tron Legacy didn't make any profit from worldwide gross.

In Time was saved internationally.

I have never seen someone pushed so hard (despite multiple rejections) than Ryan Reynolds.

I disagree. My dick is very bad and not good.
