As an action,thriller fanatic i do love 200 pounds of beauty,Mr&Mrs.______something i dont remember and a movie where the girl happened to see ghosts who onesidely love a rich boy.....hopes u know the title....i enjoyed these movies a lot...would you please recommend some of the same kind of romantic comedies...?

No sorry i have no idea what that is. Maybe if you could remember the actor/actress ot date of release?

My 2 absoulute favorite romance/comedy films are architecture 101 (건축학개론) and scandal makers (과속스캔들). The classic and miss granny is really good too.

[Rsyu]

Ouch! I hate THE PIRATES and love GANGNAM BLUES (I'm a big Yoo Ha fan). CON ARTISTS (aka TECHNICIANS) is so-so. 

 

KILLER TOON is underwhelming but POSSESSED is one of the very best K-horrors out there.

 

That is...unfortunate Gangnam blues was okay I guess but I didn't overly enjoy it. I'm a big fan of his "street Trilogy" though. The pirates was easily the film that produced the most laughs in 2014. great popcorn entertainment

The last Wednesday of the month is always culture wednesday in Korea leading to cheaper ticket prices and an increase in admissions. Good increases all around but holdovers should decrease quite a bit tomorrow.

Rysu, how is the Minions opening day in your perspective compared to DM2 and other recent animated films?

Rysu, how is the Minions opening day in your perspective compared to DM2 and other recent animated films?

 

Absolutely huge compared to other animated films. It's bigger than frozen and the KFP series. If I'm not mistaken, only the anomaly that was Shrek the third opened higher than minions, making it the 2nd most attended OD for an animated film.

What total is expected for MI5?

[Quigley]

Wow. IO is increasing week by week on weekdays.

[Rsyu]

What total is expected for MI5?

 

Most people expect MI4 numbers or a little higher but who knows until it opens. 

 

 

Wow. IO is increasing week by week on weekdays.

 

It's certainly impressive, lowest day so far 21 days into it's run is still it's OD by a large margin. Could see a large drop potentially happening today though.

What are the early ratings for Minions?

 

8.50/10.0 audience and 8.21/10.0 netizen rating on Naver. Pretty decent if both manages to stay in the 8s. Both the despicable me films were highly rated too with the first and second film acquiring 8.99 and 8.86 netizen scores on naver.

Wow great numbers for MI5! Not sure how the 2nd day for Minions is good or not, but I think it's good. Rysu what's your prediction for the weekend?

[Fake]

That seems good for MI5, no?

 

Can it get 2M admissions for 4-day?

Rogue nation captured the biggest opening day admissions of the series shattering the previous high of 264,719 set by Ghost Protocol. 2M OW is locked in my opinion.
