The poster who bet that Homecoming would top BvS worldwide has won his bet.
That was me! Hurray!!
The poster who bet that Homecoming would top BvS worldwide has won his bet.
You didnt see Batman v Superman in theaters?
Of course, that isnt hitting near the worst I have seen in theaters. It is just the most recent wound.
Did anything happen? Why are you upset?
If you need something fun and "opium for the masses"-y, watch Kingsman
Whatever movie you end up going to I hope it makes you feel better.
Watch mother to keep your mind on something else (whether or not you like it)
It is entertaining as well if you want a good laugh. (Uh the movie IT, but that applies to mother as well to an extent)
This movie is pointless mess with no plot, zero characterization and 8 meandering plotlines that all wind up nowhere at all.
It's a movie that literally shouldn't exist and has no function.
BvS is a movie with lots of problems, but has a missed mark. Home Again is just hot shit that had no upside potential at any point.
The Exorcist made over $66.3 million in rentals or $128m or so, give or take in 1973. In terms of tickets sold, that's still an absurdly huge amount for a horror film, nonetheless. It doesn't take away from its accomplishments. Plus re-releases do show how much longevity it had as a film.
The social media embargo in Blade Runner is up this Tuesday, with reviews releasing the Monday after.
I think it's at least going to have a big OW, probably a new October record, unless reviews are awful. It feels like an event, IMO.

Checked the budget for BR 2049...$185 million, holy hell.
Good luck WB.
It's going to be a very close call, but it's possible.Spider-Man is doing unbelievably well considering it seemed to fall out of the public eye pretty quickly. Is it likely to become the highest-grossing in the franchise, or does it not have the steam for that? Wikipedia tells me Spider-Man 3 did $890 million.
Is WB footing the bill for this one? I thought it was like GeoStorm where they're only distributing it.
Damn, I only watched the teaser trailer months ago for this. Can't wait.The film has been reported to have a run time of 2 hours and 43 minutes, including 11 minutes of credits.[
Jeez Cars 3 really tanked. I wonder if they're still selling a lot of toys, or if the kids moved on.
Theres one of those one film theaters in UCLA thats showing it and nothing else. How miserable.Home Again may be the worst movie I have ever seen in theaters.
It all sold outIt's weird, based on purely anecdotal evidence there is loads less cars stuff in the shops at Disneyworld compared to 3 years ago when I last went.
I expected loads of it with the movie being out.

I am not even a Mad Max fan, neither I was excited for Fury Road, but that movie is INSANE in term of action. It is also highly re-watchable with plenty of entertaining scenes while the story takes a backseat.If WB is lucky it could do Fury Road type numbers. That is a ton of coin for a sequel to a cultish sci-fi movie.
Even So it's ridiculous when these records that really mean nothing keep falling.
Hell yeah, its totally not my usual kind of my movie and I ended up loving itEverybody see mother!
The modern numbers are so insanely inflated by the various artificial bells and whistles thrown into the experience. On top of typical inflation you have add 3 dollars for 3D, add 3 dollars for IMAX, add three dollars for redlining seats, add five for dbox. Yet none of these modern record breakers would have anything on the heavyweights of the past in terms of butts in the seats. That's why even if the numbers are off, the adjusted for inflation list is still the best historical barometer of the biggest films ever.
War for the Planet of the Apes still hasn't made back its baseline budget? It deserved a lot better than that.
The only issue is the $185 million budget for it.
This has to be a disappointment for all concerned. Apparently Vaughn and Fox had a pretty fractious relationship during the production and marketing of this film, I wonder if they'll think it was all worth it?
Given that Vaughn's Marv co-financed the film and with his blatant negotiating in the press (DCU, blah-blah) it'll be interesting to see what Vaughn's next move is.
Ummm... why should it be an issue for us? lolGiven that we aren't the ones paying for it is it really an issue?
If it bombs people might be less likely to give Denis a shitload of money for Dune. And I need Dune.Given that we aren't the ones paying for it is it really an issue?
But those movies in the past didn't have all the access to movies we have today. You had to go to the theater to see it back then and you couldn't wait for a non-existent video market. Different times and not comparable.
Not too mention the many forms of entertainment to compete with besides movies.
What all did you hear just wondering?
i remember people here saying spider-man FEATURING ROBERT DOWNEY JNR'S IRON MAN was a disappointment because it didn't do like a billion dollars ow now it is like the fourth* highest grossing film of the year.
edit* fixed
It's also the second highest grossing movie in the Iron Man series.i remember people here saying spider-man was a disappointment because it didn't do like a billion dollars ow now it is like the fourth* highest grossing film of the year.

When Toby Emmerich replaced Greg Silverman at Warners Vaughan was one of the big name talents he wanted to lure over to the studio under his regime.
Rumours were Fox thought that either Vaughan was going to jump ship or use this interest to get himself a better deal with them and either way they weren't happy.
Hence Kingsman 2 darted all over the schedule and now all these unseemly negotiating in the press. I think Vaughan probably needed Kingsman 2 to be a smash hit to justify all this jockeying back and forth, especially given that Marv, his own investment venture, paid for half the film.
Lets see how it goes pans out.
Fixed.
Funny how people always leave that part out.

Yep.
"leave that part out" like it was somehow relevant to what I said?
