Wilfred Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Echo The Big Short being very strong sentiment. The financial jargon may go over some heads but Paramount is being wise to play the long game with it. It's the rare film that's both educational and genuinely entertaining. A 5 day $15-16 Million run sets it up fine for what I expect will and should be a long run. Especially if it gets a Best Picture nom. Which I assume it will.

MasterofGrond Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Big short was more fun than a movie about mortgage backed securities had any right to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's as inoffensive and uncontroversial as a celebrity could possibly be. What do you think of Katherine Heigl, old fool?

XXRDJisDoctorDoom Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I know I have no real say in it but here's what I want TFA to do the rest of the way.... It needs to hit $700 million by the end of it's 3rd Sunday then just have Avatar's numbers for the rest of it's theatrical life! Avatar made almost $400 million after it's 3rd weekend and I'd think we'd all be happy if TFA did the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rth has access to the same data that the trades and industry sources do, plus he's excellent at extrapolating from the data. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
