I'm afraid it would flop hard. The movie Idiocracy pretty much hit the nail on the head. Our society seems to get dumber every year. People can't sit still for 5 seconds in a movie theater. Gotta dick around in the smart phone. 

 

I dunno, yeah I see people on their phone sometimes, but it's typically only one or two people out of 200. I'd hardly call that a harbinger of doom for society. There's always been dumb people, they're just easier to recognize now.

Yeah I've been fortunate enough to not see it in big movies like TFA where no one would dare do it but other times, not so much.

I think during Deadpool someone sitting next to me would pull out his phone every 10 minutes and scroll down. And I'm just thinking why? Is Facebook that freaking important. 

Those are the people who have ruined horror movies because studios think audiences won't pay attention, so they throw in all these jump scares instead of actually building tension.

A movie like Jacob's Ladder could probably never exist nowadays either. It's sad.

Although annoying teenagers at horror movies are always the best. Seeing Drag Me to Hell in theaters almost 7 years ago was one of the most entertaining experiences ever.

I see everyone's mad as shit, feeling bad and losing their fucking minds. 

 

Tele, you deserve a medal for surviving this weekend. 

[Noctis]

I'm not going to get into a Potter VS Star Wars VS Marvel war.

 

It's the box-office equivalent of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism going to war against each other. Pointless.

Both MBFGW2 and BVS were great. Critics suck.

You're such an asshole when it comes to Potter. Do you realise how much you bash Potter but are silent about other series? You know WHAT?

 

Your opinion. What a fucking shame. Your signature still makes me wonder whether or not you showed your son Potter...and knowing your venom towards Potter, I'm sure you haven't.

 

Bye, Felicia.

That's fine. But I'm not talking about you, or people who didn't like BVS specifically. I'm talking about people who have been hating Him in a obsessive way since the day I came to this forum, you can see that's not normal or mentally healthy behavior.

Okay, no problem. I don't know who you're talking about but I'm sure they exist. And no it's not healthy to bash directors obsessively. A lot of people do it to Michael Bay and Roland Emmerich too. The director who sort of deserves it is Uwe Boll but I still wouldn't do it. His track record speaks for itself.

I don't care who makes the movie, as long as it's entertaining or well made.

I'm curious. What are your family members' favorite movies?

 

Titanic for my mom, Mean Girls and Clueless for my sister, Top Gun for my dad and I love Super 8 and Ferris Bueller way more than I should

That is the sad truth. I'm grateful we got it at all. 1990's were a great time to be a kid. 

 

Best ending ever in my opinion. When the Bat Signal lights up and you see Catwoman looking on. My childhood was definitely good.

There's 0 shame in loving Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

[Jack Nevada]

Ah yes, Harry Potter. That famous series of books and films we all know and love.

[James]

So, before this thread goes to shit (actually, before it sinks even deeper in the pile of shit) do we get any numbers soon?

During bad jump scare horror movies like the new Paranormal Activitys like Ghost Dimension or Oculus...yes. Because they make the movie more entertaining then it actually is. People will scream out things and make it a party environment.
 

But it also forces out more movies like that instead of stuff like It Follows. And I know a lot of people hated that for a lot of reasons but it actually had great areas of tension. I'm so sick of jump scare horror (speaking as a huge horror geek).

I would be lying of I said I wasn't hoping that a Transformers or a Mission Impossible would show up.

Fox's franchises are very underrated. Alien and Predator have struggled to find their groove back but I think they are heading in the right direction. I can't remember the last time I knowingly watched a Sony movie.

 

Yeah, they tend to be a little darker. They suit me just fine.

Probably not for another 7 hours or so.
