I don't see how TGM misses 700m tbh The naysayers' comparisons are irrelevant this moment in time, it's having the greatest summer legs of all time. Not to mention that those comparisons that state why TGM will miss 700m are from a completely different market landscape. It has zero competition for the rest of the summer.

EmpireCity still reading this forum despite claiming he’ll never come back to “the little kids” is funny. Real loser stuff.

This place is an addiction. Once you've been here for a while it's hard to let it go.

Dude’s ego just can’t handle being in the wrong or not have the spotlight. It’s less funny and more sad.

Certainly ironic. Also, lets be real, this forum is the only place he's relevant. His Twitter gets no engagement and he lives off of the interaction he gets here. That's why he's obsessed with this place. Without the forum, no one cares about him. He'll either start posting numbers elsewhere (which means we will find them) or he'll fade into obscurity. Either way, the forum wins with him gone.

we're small enough to be under the radar. but you can't just leak numbers on twitter and reddit and not have people asking who you are.

We will use AI to digitally reconstruct Hitchcock’s directorial style and release new movie with the “directed by Alfred Hitchcock” tag by 2050

[Ozymandias]

so what does he think needs to replace the "auteur model"

 

more corporatized committee box ticking content designed to make as much money as possible? if we ever get to a point where there are no more or very little real filmmakers left and everything is run by Kathleen Kennedys and Kevin Fieges, we riot

The circlejerk in here is really funny though.

I haven't seen it yet but The Lady Friend saw Thor tonight with her dad and neither liked it at all. "It was so jokey" and "You're suppose to just laugh at everything" were her big comments. She singled out the screaming goats.

Quite impressive Taika used the exact same jokes as The Grinch parentheses 2018 via "lol remember the screaming goat meme". It's like he wanted to fail.

So I've been going to the movie theater for about 42 years. I guess that makes me an elitist snob LOL
