Jim Shorts Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Just got back from the last showing of Force Awakens at my local AMC since it's being dropped this weekend to make room for new releases. I was only expecting a handful of people but there were about 20 of us in the theater which was pretty cool. Before that, caught a showing of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, which was also probably the last showing at the theater before it too, gets dropped. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one theater is playing The Choice, and it's only once a day. Is The Choice's success regionally different from PPZ's? My backyard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Pretty big night at my theatre tonight. Deadpool did over the equivalent of 13M just for Thursday, and is at 180M total so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonathanLB Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Just got back from Deadpool. Wow it was so so good. I loved it! That's going to be on my top 5 for the year for sure. It was hilarious!! I was absolutely shocked at how well that movie is doing where I am too. We picked a 9:30 showing to avoid the crowds. Whoops! Didn't work at all hahaha. The huge theater was packed and we had people next to us, in front, everywhere. It was insane. But fun to see with a lot of people too, so no big deal. Im so happy TFA gave up its IMAX to this movie and not that shitty as hell looking Finest Hours. Deadpool deserved it. PS: though I know TFA has lost like 60% of its theaters, it has still yet to lose a single one in Portland. Our smallest theater that's a multiplex is the downtown 6-Plex and I can't believe it but they're keeping it for a 10th weekend!! They also didn't take either Zoolander 2 or How To Be Single. They kept TFA instead. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) My local 15 screen cinema still has The Force Awakens, including once a day in IMAX. Gonna go one last time to IMAX on Sunday morning, and then the final 2D showing when it eventually comes.

JonathanLB Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Dang I'm so jealous for real?! I can't believe you guys still have TFA in IMAX. I would kill for that after the last two 2D showings were kinda meh. I saw it 27 times in IMAX so I got spoiled with that. Now 7 total in standard 3D or 2D. Im seeing it for #35 on Saturday but Friday going to The Witch. This little period is near record territory for me at the movies. Last Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday TFA in IMAX for the last 3 times. Friday Zoolander 2, Saturday TFA again with friends, Sunday How To Be Single, Tuesday TFA again, Thursday Deadpool, Friday The Witch, and Saturday TFA again. Almost a movie per day for 12 days. I guess 10 for 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonathanLB Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I wish one of our 3 IMAX theaters did that. I'm looking at houses again tomorrow and no matter what I'll go from 1.4 miles from an IMAX theater to more than 10 miles :/ So probably it'll be a special occasion thing for me. Doh!

druv10 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I saw Deadpool for the 3rd time last night!!! Repeat viewing value is insane. Legs are gonna be great; I wouldn't be shocked with 400M+ domestic finish. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been thinking to see it from Day 1, Due to heavy wok and no one to watch out the company i had to stay and didn't get a chance. I'll see this mostly tomorrow or this weekend.
