Oh, leave @Baumer alone. He's just upset that both of his "ballsy" summer clubs are going to crash and burn in spectacular fashion.

[baumer]

Naaa. That stuff doesn't bother me as much as it bothers Marvel loonies that Civil War is going to have a multiplier under 2.3 lol

Nah, didn't you listen? He's not bothered at all that both of his predictions are turning out to be completely wrong! Why don't you believe him?

Nah that would be the Mexico National team last night

I make clubs so that when I'm wrong I can give the members here something to tease me about. 

 

At least I make clubs and have some fun. When's the last time any of you made a club?

Nah, I'd say rubber bullets.

The moral of the story is to not bet against Pixar even to be "hip" or "cool". Or at least not to bet against Pixar in favor of Roland Emmerich circa the 2010s.

Zootopia is good, but it isn't great.  The honest thing is that 90% of kids movies are going to make big money.  Only a few select ones will fail, but you have to be pretty bad to make less than $100m and most will make $150m+

 

Anything good is making $300m or more at this point.  

The reason they're kid's movies are so successful is because they're so selectively made.

 

I mean, pretty much all of them are animated features right now.

Way off topic but I watched God's of Egypt last night. It was actually kinda good. Campy and silly but fun.

 

And I spoke with cjohn and Schumacher about this also there is perhaps the greatest pair of breasts in film since the stupendous tits from Friday the 13th remake LOL this Australian actress is just stunning you should see the movie just for her...if u are into women.

I can appreciate the buzz for TFA and the opening night experience I had, but the JJ Abrams is god talk stopped when he put out a note by note remake of Episode IV and I'll never understand someone who debates that point.

 

Because it s factually false I guess ?
