Like which movies are you talking about? Give examples?

I think he meant the original sci-fi like EOT, Jupiter Ascending, Tomorrowland or non-sequel movies like John Carter or Pacific Rim.

[DAJK]

From this opening, I could see Ant-Man finishing at around 155M. It would e nice to see it hit 175 but with MI5 and F4 coming out, I would be happy with anything around that 155 mark or higher.

[Maxmoser3]

Whoa that Minion increase

[Maxmoser3]

Oh it was. You had to hide VHS tape in the sleeve of another movie. Same with a DVD. Or a magazine had to be hid under a mattress

my friend did that with a Big Daddy(Adam Sandler movie) VHS box and put a porno inside the box. Edited July 19, 2015 by Maxmoser3

I hope Trainwreck can finish with at least 30M. 

 

Glad Minions' 2nd weekend will less than Inside Out's 2nd weekend.

So he wants us to support shit for the sake of getting more shit? (EoT was good).

[Claire of Themyscira]

I'm still thinking about Trainwreck, so good.

 

Amy Schumer slayed. I was impressed.

 

And Tilda Swinton, I didn't recognize her at first. :| Mess.

 

Glad to see a great Saturday numbah!

blu ray is higher quality than what's available online though. CDs are just mp3 files anyway.

Most digital copies are in HD and 5.1 audio now. Streaming movies in 4k will be available in the near future, hell, porn is already available to download in 4k. Which is a bit much.

What has been seen, cannot be unseen.

Slut.

Well, he probably meant only the good ones..lol. I just named all the I could come up with.

 

Yeah EOT was good and I quite enjoyed PR for the visuals. Both movies could have made more IMO.

I don't care if I can download Super HD versions of the movies, they won't come with nice artworks or nice packaging, my favourite movies deserve a physical form.   Now if they are shit movies then I don't mind owning a ghost version of them.

Glad a romcom is doing well, its been awhile

Oh trust me, I'm in the same boat. I've bought so many movies just for a certain packaging.

But as I'm running out of physical space to store my movies, digital copies of certain movies now is becoming a more frequent option, especially when I can buy UVHD copies that'll stream on Vudu or Flixster in the secondary market for $1 for old releases and $5 for new releases.

A few of my steelbooks, some suspect movies, but they were steelbooks so I had to have them.

Its nut just about the resolution, but the bitrate as well.

[Clef Ment]

Where is Neo btw?

[Infernus]

So abut 60M for ANT-MAN this weekend.. Not bad and will probably finish at 180-200M Domestic..

 

But, but...didn't you say and expect it to get GotG numbers     

[Jim Shorts]

Yeah, you're going to lose quality with compression but the average person is not going to notice banding and artifacts when they're streaming movies.

Btw, did you mean to use "nut" in your reply in regards to my porn reference? That's hilarious if you did.

[Noctis]

Where is Neo btw?

 

Abandoned everyone without a proper explanation. 

 

I think Neo realised that being a robot among humans wasn't going to get him anywhere.

Thats the exact case with me when it comes to books. Its so easy to find free copies of almost any book online. But E-books are just not the same as Physical copies of the books. The Cover Artwork, actually holding the book, the ease of flipping the papers, even the smell of paper - it all makes the experience so much better. But since I don't earn myself as of yet I have to make do with the fucking downloaded E-Books from the net 

[Killimano3]

I own a loooot of physical copies for movies. People keep telling me it's such a waste and there is no reason to buy them but whatever I like to have them
