With all the complaints about lines, spillover is gonna be strong. 30+ Monday very much in play.

 

 

The line for Jurassic World isn't worth it! Guess I'll see it during the week

[TServo2049]

Anyone else have that Jurassic Park theme in their heads? I can't get it out.

It's been in my head all day yesterday and today, yes.

[Dementeleus]

Btw! 

I hear no MAD MAX in China

 

sadly it will not break even

 

but hey, I got Jurassic World to be excited about

 

really stoked, more stoked had Max got to 375 to 400 million

 

sadly, it will settle for 340 WW, still good though

Of course it'll break even, what are you worried about?

[WrathOfHan]

My theater increased prices not too long ago (they're up from when I saw AOU). Regular tickets are now 10.25, matinees are 9, seniors and kids are 8. I'm surprised they didn't go higher since they're the only theater in the area worth going to.

[Lordmandeep]

I always have a bad habit of talking with friends or cousins during the movie inserting random inside jokes or random jokes.

 

I know its annoying but it makes the movie a lot more fun. We do the same when we watch a movie at home to.

 

 

Like a  fun movie like JW.

 

Like at the end when the Dino seemed to be talking to each other we were making up what the subtitles would be. Great fun. 

[SchumacherFTW]

Maybe Universal will make a Mamma Mia 2 and it'll be the biggest film ever.

Please don't try to give me nightmares.

[Mitch]

I thought it hit 180?

 

 

yes, it did

Couldn't even beat the original R rated action movie this year, but I'm not saying anything.

[Dementeleus]

Its not cost I cant afford.

 

I can afford it now more then ever , it just dont feel dropping 70 dollars on a game or 20 on a movie these days when there are alternatives.

Sure, but there are drawbacks to choosing cheaper alternatives.

At home you don't have 300 other people who you're annoying. And you may not realise just how loud you are to others, but people like you are really fucking annoying in cinemas and tbh should be kicked out.

I really don't get you most of the time.

So many users not posting, just lurking.

Speak. Talk. Welcome to the Box Office World.

 

I just came back from getting trampled the theater and felt I should comment on the craziness. Crowds here were insane. What's crazier to me is the fact that the theater I usually go to is pretty big, but it's never super, super busy (at least not to the point where people have to line up in advance). We can usually walk up and buy tickets, get popcorn and drinks, and still get a good seat with about 20 minutes (maybe 30 at the most) before showtime even for big stuff like all of the Marvel movies and THG. I watched JW twice. Once last night (which was even crazier) and once today. I went with the roomie last night and we were checking out showtimes at around 5PM and the 7, 7:30, 7:45 were sold out. We got to the theater at around 7ish and got tickets for the 8:15 show, and we had to stand in line for about an hour and there were already like 20 people ahead of us. We went back today for a 3:30 showtime and it was crazy too, but I can't tell if it was less crowded or the theater was better prepared for the crowds. I feel like this is pretty ~par for the course in a lot of places, but we're so not used to this kind of thing lmao. Every one was freaked out and couldn't believe what was happening. And obviously there were the obligatory groups of like 7 people who tried to go in like 2 minutes before showtime and got all huffy when they couldn't find seats together. 

 

eta: there was also some poor soul who got confused and stood in line for the 8:15 show without realizing that her showtime of 7:30PM was history until it was too late

I've been listening to it non-stop today. It's just an awesomely beautiful theme.

WELCOME BTW!

Well not everyone watches a generic Blockbuster like they are watching 12 years a Slave either . 

 

You guys mostly watch films a lone so you can't really relate.
