War Dogs looks good as hell, definitely seeing that one

 

Theres something about movies where ordinary people go out into rhw world and do bad shit in order to achieve wealth and happiness that I really love (like the criminally underrated Lord of War).   Whoever cut that last trailer deserves an award.

Looking at the WW chart for the weekend, Ghostbusters and Trek are performing awful OS. Ghostbusters will end below 220M OS in best case scenario, and Trek might end below (and I can't even believe I am typing this) Legend of Tarzan WW gross. Trek has China to come but all other markets have not been kind to it at all. Ghostbusters has also failed to connect with audiences in most markets.

 

I feel like Paramount is Chuck Pagano and dialed up this release for STB

The Batfleck buttshot was a bonus of the 3hour cut ?

 

Those dudes at Warner are freaking geniuses IMO.

Lex brings life into the movie. The people who don't like this Lex are probably dead inside.

Saturday numbers being closer to what Rth reported than the $39M WB is estimating...

 

No. Rth reported at 1am.  The late numbers were strong out west. This has been covered already.

I just think it looks super funny and hateful, kinda refreshing after all these kids blockbusters.

Can't wait until Jesse says he only did these movies because he had bills that needed to be paid.

Why should he say that? He's an actor, doing bad movies to pay the bills is part of the deal.

Think it could be some kind of mix of Pain and Gain and the Big Short.

 

I don't think I'll see it but I think Todd Phillips is capable of pulling off an entertaining flick along the lines of Pain and Gain.

Like we need him to say that lol. He hates these movies. It is obvious he did it because it assures a steady income of money since he is now Lex Luthor in this universe.

 

Either way I liked him as Lex Luthor lol.

I may be wrong but the scene where we see Bruce Wayne's dad dying doesn't happen right before that? How could that be his father lol?

 

You'd think people would understand that, but even the critics were confused. This was mentioned as part of the poor editing, killing the elder Wayne in the scene prior and then having him alive in the next scene, played by a different actor. I thought I was reading parody reviews, but apparently this is part of the reasons for calling BvS a mess. Studio didn't get its editing shit together to have enough consistency to have the same actor play Thomas Wayne in consecutive scenes...

 

If you read the Suicide Squad reviews, they make similar mentions of how characters go from being dead to alive in later scenes. I have no idea what they're talking about.

He probably only did this and Now You See Me 2 just for the paychecks. Although let's be honest, everyone in Now You See Me 2 looked they were only there for the paycheck except Lizzy Caplan who seemed to be genuinely enjoying herself.

I mean, I didn't think he was actually his dad, I just thought it was weird he was saying DAD. Or maybe it was a foster dad. Or maybe the sound was way too loud to understand anything intelligible.

 

Or maybe I'm an idiot

Well, don't beat yourself up too hard, you're at least closer than some critics!

I'm not going to nitpick the whole movie but I'm kind of screaming at all those people staying in the building until Bruce calls Jack to tell them to leave.

 

No kidding!  I was mentally screaming in the IMAX theater.

Or maybe we just found him to be annoying, dumb, and horrible. Just because we don't like Razzie-level worthy acting doesn't mean we're dead inside.
