it would be for next year's emmys, which is good because set it up will have grown into a global phenomenon by then. it's a slow burner.

That was when he retired from the admin team. He continued to post for almost another four months after that.

Yeah but there have been two Marvel OW during that time.

 

How often did Tele post in the weekend threads?

 

I mean since its a Marvel thing.

 

I don't think he wanted to debate box office records endlessly.

 

That wasn't his thing. He loved movies and joking around with certain people. 

 

But overall this is a box office forum. And box office forums aren't dominated by Black Swan making 50 m or whatever.

#NotmyJurassicmovie

 

I unfortunately did not care for it all that much. It has more to do with some of the things that I don't like in life. But to me this was more of a horror movie then it was a fun Jurassic Park movie. It had none of the charm of the original and none of the fun and the levity of Jurassic World. It was just a movie that wasn't very fun to sit through. It was more like watching a crossover between Last House on the Left and EARTHLINGS.

 

6/10

I liked the film but I wonder if hiring JA Bayona who normally is a great director was a mistake and perhaps why they've asked Trevorrow to direct the third film.

it's like when people do sellout reports for their theaters, only the information I compiled is more useful.

The only mistake is Trevorrow's screenplay...

[CoolioD1]

is there any director with a greater absence of style than colin trevorrow? 

[Cooper Legion]

I have my differences with @That One Guy sometimes, but his recent post is a high-effort masterpiece and I will not stand for anyone trying to tell him otherwise.

Not to get all masturbatory but I believe this illustrates the difference between a fun casual aside and trying way too hard quite well.

if i ever posted in that "sum up a users entire set of posts" thread for that one guy it'd have to be - *sees a joke* "oh, what if this but annoying"

The mistake is letting Treverrow write these movies and they're repeating it. 

 

This a multi billion $ franchise - they can do better but for some reason are content to Transformers it when it comes to writing - just insert dinos for robots

[filmlover]

What's everyone expecting from next weekend's openers? I can't see either Sicario or Uncle Drew doing higher than mid-teens personally.

Have some respect Black Swan was Fox's highest grossing film of 2010. 

[CoolioD1]

i really recall black swan was talked about a lot back on BOM in the day. for what it was that movie had kinda a crazy run.

I think Universal and Amblin are too risk averse to shake things up and I suspect after JW3, the series will go into hibernation again.

It might be the most "out there" movie to ever cross $100M for sure.

[filmlover]

@WrathOfHan Happytime Murders just got moved back to August 24 to accommodate Mile 22's move so not far off.
