Weekend Actuals (Page 120): Boss Baby 50.2M | BATB 45.4M | GITS 18.7M | Power Rangers 14.2M | Kong 8.6M

[grey ghost]

Just saw gits.

 

Not a crowd pleaser or the ideal gits adaptation but I wish it could've gotten Pacific Rim or Lucy numbers.

 

Paramount actually tried to make a decent anime adaptation that doesn't totally shit on the fans.

 

That should count for something.

Stop kissing ass. You're only doing this because you were half the problem this weekend 

I mean, you're not wrong.

Spoiler

But c'mon, I think I was a quarter of the problem at worst.

7:00 GITS is ending with 14 tickets sold.

 

 

I'm seriously considering downgrading my prediction to 18M.

 

Didn't straight up say it, but you said you were considering it. I still stole it and shall reap its glory when I end up coming 20th in this weeks derby.

HELP ME BOT:

Tomorrow morning, I plan to see Ghost in the Shell.  My choice is either Dolby Atmos cinema at 10:30am for 12 bucks, or IMAX 3D at 11:15am for 13 bucks.  The Dolby Atmos sounds tempting because I have never tried that yet (cuz of the high price).  Usually I just go straight to IMAX 3D for special occasions but this handy website has is giving the worst recommendation i have seen thus far for a movie .  However, this negative recommendation seems to be from a lack of 3D, not because it is a horrible presentation.  http://www.cinemablend.com/news/1642080/to-3d-or-not-to-3d-buy-the-right-ghost-in-the-shell-ticket?story_page=2

 

To those who have seen this, is it worth seeing in 3d?  Does the 3D ruin the movie?  Should I give Dolby atmos a shot for the first time? (but I don't think GitS is going to be strong in the sound department (it seems to be all about the visuals)).  This is a decision I cannot make on my own.  I am afraid I will resort to IMAX 3D.  Help me BOT, your my only hope.

I haven't seen the film in 3D BUT I can confirm that the film from a visual standpoint is insane. I recommend 3D for sure. 

I would wait to watch another film at the Dolby.

Looks like it was a solid Saturday BB should have 50m locked up with that number. Shame next weekend can't get us a 40m opener to keep the streak going. 

 

Solid weekend for sure. Ghost is what it is, PR recovered a bit.

I didn't see it in 3D, so I don't know how they actually utilize it, but there are a lot of cityscape shots that I think could look amazing in 3D.

@Matrix4You the 3D for GITS was some of the best I have seen in a while

I have no idea what Cinemablend is going on about; the 3D was the best I've seen since Gravity tbh

Moderation:

 

We'll discuss these valid complaints and see if we can come up with some guidelines to strike a balance between loose fun and getting out of control. 

 

@jandrew @GiantCALBears @MrPink @Lordmandeep  and others. 

 

::Shrug::

 

When there were numbers we talked about numbers.

 

When there wasn't numbers we mostly talked about the movies generating the numbers.

 

A couple of trolls and some controversy... such as Tele liking power rangers... generated extra conversation which did go a bit off topic.

 

As long as the title and preferably the 1st post are updated with the numbers and what page they appear on I don't see the issue...  people coming just for number talk can jump to those pages and skip the crap.

 

Speaking of which... can someone let me know what page @Rth and the Beast posted?

Didn't they give Lego Batman a perfect score? The 3D in that was fine but nothing noteworthy.

It's like the feeling you get when you find out the popular girl thinks you're hot tbh

Crazy for BB. Did not see that coming. It looks bad.

We live in a world where Norbit adjusts to over $100M in ticket sales. "It looks bad" is hardly a setback for a movie.

I'm not surprised.

 

It's a kids movie and the trailer always got a positive reaction in the theater.  If my kid was 5 years younger I'd have no problem taking him.  

 

Compare that to something like Norm of the North which seemed so cringe worthy that I wouldn't have seen that no matter how much my kid begged me.
