Impact Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Oh okay. I barley remember the show. So I guess that is why I didn't notice.If it was based off the show it be intersting, but it wouldn't do that well, what do you think WB?Also Hired Guns-is that in the running for picture? You probably figured I like that film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Community Manager Water Bottle Posted December 16, 2011 Community Manager Share Posted December 16, 2011 If it was based off the show it be intersting, but it wouldn't do that well, what do you think WB?It would depend on the marketing, honestly. If it went only for the show's fans, then not that well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Looking over the films/predicts of this year, people seem to be forgetting that this is a new CAYOM, meaning none of it happened. Thing is that we have to go over what has happened in real life.For example:M. Night would never have a 50M OW now.Animated sci-fis just don't hit the spot with people.(well niether do video game films)So yeah, just because they were a hit in CAYOM a, remember that.

4815162342 Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 Animated sci-fis just don't hit the spot with people.Actually The End of the Universe did about the same in CAYOM 1.0 as the average of the predictions so far (mid-high 30s opening) so that film will probably end up near the same as CAYOM.It's a hard sell I agree but I think since this is an alternate universe we can skew a little more friendly to films that are good.

Impact Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Still though, that was after they proved how they did in CAYOM A.But the M. Night film predict are insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RySenkari Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 So what's the chance of an animated BP nominee? Wings of Icarus and End of the Universe are tearing up the charts and will both finish comfortably in the top ten. Chronicle, And The Band Played On, and Rapture seem like BP shoo-ins at this point so there are two spots that could easily be filled by an animated film (and probably Morrow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RySenkari Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 There will be some surprising hits. I'll try to be realistic but if it's a toss-up between realistic and fun, fun will win out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunch Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 The End of the Universe would bomb IRL (sadly), animation simply does not work when paired with anything that isn't kid-oriented, especially if it's sci-fi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 Yeah, obvously. But since this is our own universe we can give such meritorious films closer to the BO they deserve.I don't expect big numbers from it because some of that bias/etc has to stay in the game initially, but the idea is that you have to start somewhere and films like that that do okay and are received great will eliminate that bias so they can then later do even better.

RySenkari Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Good lord, look how YOUNG the Best Actress field is. I think Emma Stone is the oldest in the running and she's more than a year younger than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RySenkari Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Right now it looks like Wings of Icarus is going to coast to a BP nomination, I'm wondering how it stands among some of my greats from CAYOM 1.0? Maybe Creator could give his opinion if he's hanging out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
