Okay let’s get back to this—

 

• “I am gonna stay in a public palace, I feel safer” — if only we all felt that way
• And, NeverMind, spoke too soon
• Yay! Techno babble exposition 
• YES GIRL. BITE HIM. GET AWAY FROM THE CRAZY MAN!!!  
• Got to hand it to Gale Anne Hurd, she called that the The Internet is gonna kill us in the 1980s
• Even if I don’t think that’s how nuclear fall out works
• @Plain Old Tele Oh, look, a woman who is only important for her child bearing skills 🙃
• Thank you, we are out of the car. Finally.
• I totally get why the sequel was like “What if we make this all about Arnold” 
• I looooooove the criminal psychologist. What bed side manner 🤣
• LOL “probably on PCP”. 
• HE SAID THE THING! 

 

• What is with you people from California complaining about it being cold?
• NO DOGS 🤬
• Oh look, it’s only 30 minutes left so we need them to have sex now. 
• This sex scene is going on too long. 
• It’s nice to know sex unlocks your inner bad ass
• One and done, folks. This is why you always use protection!
• Wait… what did she say! Let me turn on my CC
• lol. Good line.
• YES! She got a dog 🥺🥺🥺

This is fine. I am ready for T2 and everyone to level up. Gail’s presence/fingers over everything are much much appreciated, and made Sarah feel like a more rounded and complete individual. I think I would be more Fuck Yeah about it if I bought more into Sarah/Kyle, which is the crux of the thing.

Re: the economy, it’s interesting that the cinema used to do well when times were tough as it was seen as cheap entertainment. I can’t speak for everywhere, but in the uk there’s no one who still thinks that’s true. It’s a borderline frivolous luxury now, no doubt in part because streaming is the alternative.

 

 

Ticket prices have become truly ridiculous. Especially with this surge pricing stuff. 5 years ago, I could watch a movie for 5 bucks if I went at the right time. Now, the cheapest price at the same theater is a 11.50.

So how is 1 Billion+ DOM looking?

Come back in 2-3 weeks and we could know the trajectory.

I'm really positive that $1b DOM combined gross for Avatar 2 and 3 is still not out of the question!

Yep. I'm finding it harder and harder to defend theatres to people with these prices.

Which woudnt be a shame. Its not easy for any movie to reach the quality and monetary heights of Dominion.

Feels surreal that this is actually, finally out after so long.  

 

Gonna go see it next week with family.  I will definitely need a pee break in the middle.

No need to worry about walk ups if theaters can only show it once per screen anyway

All these years waiting and Cameron can't write a had decent story and his ego wouldn't allow others to correct him. If I want to see great visuals, I watch an IMAX doc get into a VR meditation app. For one of the most expensive films ever made, one would expect an engrossing story. We go to cinemas for great stories. Sad not to get it. Let's bring TGM back for PLF screens mid January.

TGM have a basic script just like Avatar lol 

 

I was not even say anything because i don't have anything to do with your dislike for Avatar, but saying blockbusters should have super engrossing stories and using TGM as an example is just... 

 

TGM is an exceptional movie, it's emotionally very engrossing... Story - wise? It's just an political ambiguous mission that needs to be done despite difficulties and personal issues and it never goes beyond this.

 

This is a simple as it can get, which is the case for most blockbusters, Avatar is not the exception here despite everyone online keeps treating as an anomaly.

Hour?!?

 

Minute!

28 pages full of overreacting stuff without a single oficial number... Avatar is really something different.

[AJG]

streets saying Cameron's being lined up to direct Fantastic 4 once this tanks.

I always wanted to see a James Cameron X-men movie.
