Barnack Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 And I'm not sure it play to someone that has not seen the original Blade Runner, it is referred quite a lot, that could hurt the legs, unlike a MadMax that really didn't need to have seen anything to work.

Zakiyyah6 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Even if it does have legs, they aren't going to be good enough for it to be a hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cochofles Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) WTF? What happened? I woke up and saw that 36.5 million # and thought, "DAMN!!!! For Friday?????" My heart jumped! Then I realized that it was the weekend estimate. On the other hand: IT gets to 300 million!!!! YAY! Also...that Flatliners drop would be great all things considered.

straggler Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Blade Runner is an alltime classic. But it is a grim film. You appeciate the film being made, it is great to watch on TV, but would you really want to watch it in a theater? I think that applies to this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit the other way around imo, (if you are not referencing the runtime), so much of the movie experience is on the visual/music that it is something to watch in theater and make maybe little sense on a regular tv, kind of movie that if you are to ever watch it, in theater not necessarily worth it on tv. That said I preferred gravity in 2D on a tv than 3d in theater, so who knows.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully. 1. oh yeah, a tasteless teenager probably thinks that. 2. The ubber frontloadness of Friday already suggests a tepid overall multipler, lets put 100m DOM as the benchmark.

When I smoke, I become the most self-conscious man in the world. Whenever I do have a stoned conversation, my only thoughts are: "How stupid do I sound? How red are my eyes? Jesus, I must seem high. Why am I not in my room listening to music?" It takes practice, young padawan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxofficerules Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I’m kinda surprised how active Pulse is right now, who’s buying movie tickets at like 3 or 4 in the morning? That’s what time it is right now in the states isn’t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
