Because I don't want to eat meat.

Why?

Meat is too good for me to give up.

[Jack Nevada]

Why?

Not the thread for this discussion.

You know the box office numbers are not that exciting, when people start discussing vegetarianism in a box office forum.

If it wasn't for the the whole extinction thing, I think i would probably try out exotic meat like Lion and Elephant.

I think Tiger would be delicious.

Crazy to think that "Gothic" period horror movies like Bram Stoker's Dracula and Interview with the Vampire opened with $30M+ in 1992 and 1994. It's especially impressive for Stoker b/c Interview had major starpower from Tom Cruise, rising star Brad Pitt and still kinda relevant Christian Slater.

According to early returns, Crimson Peak is pacing to earn $7 million-$9 million Friday from 2,984 theaters for a projected weekend of $17 million-$22 million (many believe it will come in around $19 million).

Sony's Goosebumps, playing in 3,501 locations and costing $35 million, is on course to gross roughly $7 million on Friday for a debut as high as $23 million. It's possible the movie could beatThe Martian, but it's too early to say. Sony sources are being more conservative, suggesting an opening in the high teens.

Bridge of Spies, relying on older adults, is on course to gross $5 million-$6 million Friday for an opening in the mid- to high-teens from some 2,800 locations. The DreamWorks and Participant Media title is hoping for a long run throughout awards season versus an eye-popping debut.

There have been far more bizarre conversations when the box office is booming.

didn't notice this before but spotted Elijah Wood in a last witch hunter ad. dude's been spending the last few years being in the radest b-movies and now he's in that dumb as fuck vin diesel beard movie. I got nothing but respect. In my honest opinion his career is the best.

Honestly that cast is pretty solid. Vin Diesel, Elijah, Michael Caine, and Ygritte from GOT.

I might have to take the blame here.

B-movie Elijah Wood rules. You guys should see Maniac.

Goosebumps making some hardcore Pan money. At least it will probably have a better Saturday increase, I guess.

Why?

Because he's smart.

Don't tell me you're one of them Tele
