Oh god, I just realized that the eOne distributing John Wick 2 in Australia/NZ is the Australian arm of a Canadian company, based in Toronto.

 

I am both embarrassed, and so very sorry.

 

I take this as you accepting responsibility.

 

SEE YOU IN COURT.

Lionsgate has proven time and time again they the most incompetent studio of the big 7. Paramount follows them closely, tho.

To their credit, they have proven capable of actually distributing the movie, no matter how bungled it was.

Well let's compare the two, shall we?

 

Lionsgate is trying to save their film decision by seeking out original properties and trying to make new, interesting, franchises.

Paramount is trying to save their film division by making Nickelodeon movies, BET movies, MTV movies, and Comedy Central movies.

In terms of exact number of tickets sold, John wick doubled 50 shades at my theatre for the matinee today

 

Honestly that doesn't surprise me. 50Shades isn't exactly a matinee kinda flick.

One of the best things to do on Twitter right now is to search for eOneANZ, sort by latest and read the abuse being hurled toward the distributor. They were responding initially, they have just stopped now.

Where does this insidious rumor that Keanu Reeves is a bad actor comes from ?

 

Who/what is Fake News and Alternative Facts in this argument ?

I imagine John Wick 2 will get released in Australia but not until March. Warner Bros is distributing it in the UK and released next week so it's swings and roundabout. Australia got The Founder early whereas most places didn't get it until now for example.

Most of his performances really. People shit on him for his acting, though honestly I never thought he was "bad bad", just a limited actor, who when used right could be effective.

Lego Batman was goooooood.

Talking to a film distributor over Twitter about an action movie starring Keanu Reeves?  Probably some cuck.  Sad!
