Everyone would be. But we were talking about opening power not resumes.  Fassbender and Gylenhaal have pretty good resumes and no opening power, like most actors anyway. 

Which begs the question of why you keep harping on her lack of drawing power.

[That One Girl]

lmao I didn't notice that part about Osama being the main draw for ZDT.  Yeah, and I'm sure ISIS will be the main draw of that 15:17 to Paris movie Clint Eastwood is making.

Cause she's an outspoken female celeb, obviously (though JLaw is too so...).

Michelle Pfeiffer doesn't need to pass the baton

Agreed.

 

I look forward to seeing them play off of eachother!

Both actresses are making an impact in Hollywood and I appreciate their outspokenness. I've watched most of their movies and plan on continuing too.  I'm a little hesitant about this one at the moment but am intrigued.

[trifle]

The press rushed the stage and apparently Jen and Michelle left and Javier commented on how scary it was.  I missed it.  Repayment for watching these things via twitter instead of live stream

 

Still, I'm sure a clip will find its way onto youtube eventually!

So she needs to thank the men for her successes? Good thing she didn't win an Oscar for ZDT, her acceptance speech thanking Osama for her award would have been awkward as hell. BTW can she thank the men for what you think are her flops? I can see why you don't like some of her tweets.

I've no clue what you are talking about so I'll leave it at that. Damon and Nolan are draws, people see movies because of their names, so they do for Sandra Bullock, Melissa McCarthy and we'll see if they come for Mother! thanks to JLaw. It's a violent R rated horror so if she opens it it's gonna be much more satisfying than opening some easy sell.

Is the Rosemary's Baby homage poster new?

 

 

 

[trifle]

I guess if you are Jen and Michelle you wear gold and black to a funeral

or was Jen's a more purplish gold?  Far away it looks gold....

It's been out for a couple a weeks. I absolutely love the design though.

[The Futurist]

F Cinemascope, is it possible ?

 

[Valonqar]

Yes, didn't some horror movie get that score? It opened big, though. or was it D? 

[Krissykins]

Hmmm the critics seem a bit self indulgent with their headlines on RT.

 

Nice to see it getting good reviews though. Although I still think there will be discourse between critics and the general Friday night audience. 

[Krissykins]

I love Michelle! She cancels out me being put off by JLaw especially after Passengers. 

 

I'll definitely go and see this.

From the clips I've seen Michelle looks like she's going to be great in this.

Audience reception will no doubt will it be divisive, but I'm sure the film itself will be excellent. Aronofsky never fails on the interesting scale anyway.

Harping on J-Law not supposedly being a box office draw seems silly, especially when box office draws are basically a dying breed anyway.
