Tyler Perry announced "Boo 2! A Madea Halloween" for this October.

The first one was way better than it had any right to be. Still wasn't shit, but it was funny

P'much. Recall seeing that with my parents last year. The production values were hilariously low, even by Perry standards, Perry has recently shifted to fulltime TV show work and it shows. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it, a lot of the jokes actually made me laugh. (Variety source for sequel confirmation for those curious.)

Bring on the sequel, I guess.

Spoiler

Just hope that they actually go full spookhouse this time (as opposed to it largely holding off on it until the end) which was honestly the best part of the film. :v

Any news on directors for the next Mission: Impossible?

I love how they have a different director for each movie but I recently rewatched Rogue Nation with my wife and I'd be totally okay if Christopher McQuarrie just did all of them from now on.

McQuarrie is doing number 6. And due to how many Cruise films he's been involved with the last decade I imagine he'll have some role (writer or director) in a 7th should they get that far.

 

[BronsonLee]

We all know that you already have your Wonder Woman cosplay picked out for the event.

I still need the whip

Look at this Tron nerd thinking he is too good for the common comic book nerd.

I prefer a higher class of dumb

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Do a crossover between Pirates and F&F

I want a crossover of Pirates with the eventual live action Little Mermaid.
Some damn cool potential in there and would definitely give Mermaid a nice aesthetic.

Deadline is saying $23-25M on Friday for Pirates based on Matinees. $6.5-7M for Baywatch.

They are saying $19M FSS for GotG2 and $13-14M FSS for Alien Covenant, but take deadline multipliers with a grain of salt.

He's written some quality films and Rogue Nation was pretty excellent, so I'm okay with that.

Edit: looked it up; he's writing and directing 6, so I know to look forward to that movie now.

POTC can enjoy one weekend, before WW kicks it into Hell where it belongs

I think WW is overestimated a bit but those are encouraging numbers.

I'd be giddy if WW got to a billion.

You forgot their Valerian prediction at $24M OW and $70M total.

 

[BronsonLee]

I think anything over 90 and they're dancing RE: WW Opening

 

[Future Foundation]

All this Pirates talk is reminding me of the hype storm around Dead Man's Chest.

 

[kswiston]

I'd be giddy if WW got to a billion.

It will need to be much closer to $500M domestic for any chance at $1B. So no.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

If Dunkirk can make $240M, it's going to be at least the fifth highest grossing film this summer.

You forgot their Valerian prediction at $24M OW and $70M total.

 

[Kusagari]

That Mummy number doesn't exactly seem very conducive to starting a cinematic universe.

 

[Dyl]

You forgot their Valerian prediction at $24M OW and $70M total.

Surely that €197m budget I'm seeing isn't accurate...

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Alien: Covenant dropped 18% yesterday to $1.78M. It seems likely to have a second weekend drop close to Godzilla 2014.

 

[FoneBone]

What the hell is going on with him anyways? Nothing wrong with doing these types of movies, but why isn't he pursuing other types of roles as well? It's not like he's a bad actor.

I guess after Neighbors was his biggest hit (and We Are Your Friends his biggest bomb, not counting indie films), he or his agent thought focusing on these R-rated comedies was the safest career move.

His next movie is a musical with Hugh Jackman, so at least that's a departure.

Surely that €197m budget I'm seeing isn't accurate...

Have you seen the trailers? Say what you will, but it doesn't exactly look cheap.

 

[Freeza Under The Shower]

Oh no what a shame.

[LFMartins86]

Must be. Visually, the movie looks very impressive.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Great Numbers for The Mummy Now please lower actuals.

 

[Dyl]

Just watched one, and you're not wrong. Welp, good luck to them.

 

[Toa TAK]

Why do you all want Sofia Boutella to fail? ;_;

 

[3N16MA]

Maybe my prediction from last year that WW could come close to MoS numbers might happen.

I might actually get one.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Why do you all want Sofia Boutella to fail? ;_;

I want Atomic Blonde to succeed!

 

[Toa TAK]

I want Atomic Blonde to succeed!

Can't I she have both?

 

[kswiston]

$220M for Valerian is bonkers.

 

[DeathyBoy]

It will need to be much closer to $500M domestic for any chance at $1B. So no.

Challenge accepted

 

[3N16MA]

Those Dunkirk numbers would be excellent. Who said 200M was the floor and I brushed it off saying 200M was the ceiling?

 

[Schlorgan]

It was me and BGE in last weeks thread.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Can't I she have both?

Sure. But I'm a bit more invested in the success of Atomic Blonde than The Mummy; I want more films like the former.

Me and BGE.

I think calling $200M the floor is a bit strong, simply because the film may be terrible and/or one that audiences don't respond well to.

Assuming Nolan can deliver, though, I do believe $200+M will happen.

 

[Timu]

Surely that €197m budget I'm seeing isn't accurate...

It's accurate, it has a high budget after all.

 

[BronsonLee]

If Atomic Blonde bombs I'm coming for you all

 

[ArmGunar]

Must be. Visually, the movie looks very impressive.

And I will watch the movie just for that.
Disney/Lucasfilm should learn how to create worlds for their new trilogy after an Episode 7 very insipid

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

If Atomic Blonde bombs I'm coming for you all

We're totally good. Not even the Slayven Slide can cancel out the BGE & Bronson Bump

 

[El Topo]

If Atomic Blonde bombs I'm coming for you all

Oh no, Bronson is coming for us, we're all shaking in fear. I hope the movie is good and does well though.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Dont forget, we are dutch.

 

[Slayven]

Got tickets to a Wonder Woman screening on Wednesday, but it's sponsored by Philly Comic-Con so I dunno if I wanna go and be surrounded by 300 Slayvens

Some people would pay good money for that

 

[AdventureRacing]

That would be a great result for Dunkirk. Not sure how it'll perform WW but at least in certain markets like the UK I think it'll do well. Should be another success for Nolan.

If Atomic Blonde bombs I'm coming for you all

It's an atomic blomb..... I'll show myself out.

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

It's an atomic blomba..... I'll show myself out.

You gon' be shakin' when you get hit with mah shovel

Dont forget, we are dutch.

YOU'RE WHAT I SAY YOU ARE

*headbutt*

 

[kswiston]

You guys will get to mourn Baby Driver long before having to worry about Atomic Blonde.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Releasing an Edgar Wright joint a week after TF5 and two days before 3 other wide releases, one of which is Despicable Me 3. Bold strategy, Sony.

It's a shame too. Baby Driver is fantastic and I think is easily Wright's most accessible film for audiences.

Sony had to avoid that heated August 2017 competition.

I always expect failure from Edgar Wright

 

[DMczaf]

If Dunkirk makes $200M domestic, Nolan would get a blank check for the rest of his career.

He's a WB guy, he's had it since Inception inexplicably caught flame

Oh yeah, that's right. I'm afraid you'll have to beat up all the Dutch to find the right ones though, Bronson.

You gon' be shakin' when you get hit with mah shovel

How thoughtful. You bought a shovel so you can bury Atomic Blonde after it's bombed.
