He made this movie as an apology.

 

Speaking of which, the "dead wife" trope is one that I wouldn't mind being inverted for a while. Equality!

 

In Transcendent, a movie Nolan produced, it was inverted!

[The Futurist]

Why ?

[La Binoche]

How is this tracking? I need it to bomb hard. I feel bad for Julia Roberts, though. I kinda like her. But she should have known better.

Not well, probably. This feels like the kind of movie that should have everything going for it (the reliable cast, the generally pleasant tone, the timeliness with its namesake holiday) and yet it looks to come and go with hardly anyone noticing due to a completely muted and unenthused marketing campaign.

This is one of those films where Hollywood (cynically) goes well I guess make something that might interest women over 50.

There was an episode of WTF with Marc Maron I was gonna listen too but saw it was Garry Marshall on the episode. Let's say I skipped that one.

Just curious: did you watch the original or the remake with Rebecca DeMornay?

 

[baumer]

The original Troma film.

I find it hard to believe that this could be worse than New Year's Eve. What an abomination that was

And while Disney was setting records, the weekend also saw a stellar comeback for Open Road's Mother's Day as it took advantage of its holiday namesake.

 

In third we find the impressive result for Open Road's Mother's Day. The ensemble feature had something of a disappointing opening weekend last week but more than made up for it this weekend with a massive, 32.5% increase this weekend, bringing in $11 million as its cume now totals $22.8 million.

This is one epic thread bump! Who's responsible?

What a wonderful way to celebrate Garry Marshall's (RIP) legacy.
