Joel M Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 With a 120-150m budget I think the aim for this should be a 150m+ DOM/350m+ WW total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it! here are the track titles for the score, but it gets kinda spoilery at the end.

The Panda Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I think people are being too harsh on the trailers. It looks like a good movie ridden with poor marketing. I also think the GA will still eat it up for a DOM run around 150 - 250m 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trifle Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I think it's clearly a chopped up trailer, but I think the movie looks excellent! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valonqar Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 (edited) Is there anticipation for Passengers? On paper, this is a slamdunk - lost in space sub-genre has been very strong commercially (Gravity, Interstellar, The Martian), two big names, holiday season, some really interesting visuals (the swimming pool sequence). However, I'm not hearing much talk but, again, that may be anecdotal. I do agree that they appear like they don't know how to market this. First trailer emphasized romance over action but now this one is all action with one-two obligatory kisses. So it's tough to gauge what audience they are targeting. If this was supposed to serve as counter-programming to Rogue One, than they should stick with romance despite Jyn/Cassian commercial since there's nothing overtly romantic (unlike Passengers scenes).

misafeco Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Final trailers of big budget movies (and I think this is the final Passengers trailer) are always about action. Shorter, less dialogue, more intense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valonqar Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 This should resonate emotionally but it just doesn't (personal opinion that may not be shared). That's the problem I have with previews. May be poor Sony marketing or maybe the movie fails to establish any real danger for the glamorous duo and that's reflected on marketing. It looks fun with some inventive action but human element is lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipDerby Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I will be amazed if this finishes under Interstellar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
