I'm totally watching Geostorm on a plane or Netflix. The premise is aggressively dumb.

The new trailer made it look more dumb fun than the last one where it was just disaster porn ad nauseum

Sending Gerard butler to space for some reason.

 

[BronsonLee]

What happened with Baby Driver?

nothing
shut up

Geostorm sounds like a non-holiday version of that Disney Channel movie where Santa had a machine that could control the weather

 

[Gentleman Jack]

I got the title:

BronsonLee²

Implying Bronson has transcended his one-dimensional status.

 

[Toa TAK]

The trailer was pretty good. The general public is what's terrible

Damn straight.

Trailer was good.

It'd be like when Calvin cloned himself and Hobbes told him not to but then he did it anyway and ohhhh shit

That's rough

Yeah, the marketing is 100% Soderbergh, from what I understand about how the distro deal was set up.

He got control of how to sell his movie and he apparently didn't come up with an appealing campaign.

I read he cut the trailer himself. I liked it - it's what sold me on the movie - but it seemed to be disliked in general (on GAF, and everyone I talked to hated it). Redneck Ocean's 11 should have been a great pitch, but they borked it somehow.

 

[Slayven]

That's rough

I was going to say Taylor Kitsch, but seeing as this thread deals with movies, folks might not know who that is.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Texas Forever

 

[BronsonLee]

I should watch Friday Night Lights

I've never finished the movie either but apparently the show is even better?

read the book, pleb

 

[Slayven]

The all star that peaked in highschool is a solid parallel to kitsch's career

 

[Discotheque]

Whew. Friday Night Lights was so good. Texas forever 😭

Hopefully kitsch bounces back one day.

 

[Rhaknar]

oh this is where Bronson has been hiding?

Good, you can keep him.

One of the seasons is garbage but the rest is solid.

 

[OrangeAtlas]

At least Taylor Kitsch actually got to play Gambit in a movie.

That's the face DM makes when he watches Aguayo in a Bears jersey

 

[Random Human]

Only an elite few actors got to appear in funny True Detective Season Two gifs.

I hate real life!

 

[Cvie]

whoops last post was meant for the boxing thread lol

 

[Fancyarcher]

And yet some of the CG shots barely look above what you see on a SyFy movie lol.

Shitty CGI is required for these awful disaster films, so it's a given.

Yeah, the marketing is 100% Soderbergh, from what I understand about how the distro deal was set up.

Soderbergh & the studio thought that it would work well if they sold it to flyover states, which it as turned out was a mistake, a shame really.

I think you should ban Slayven one week for every attempt he's made on my life

SO THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHT WEEKS

Back on topic: Holy god what a shitty weekend. I'm stunned we even got to 500 posts with this shit

 

[Bobby Roberts]

I bet Hitman's Bodyguard drops under 10 for the actual.

 

[kswiston]

I think so too. Game of Thrones season finale tonight, and studios have been overpredicting Sunday since it started.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Annabelle still near the top yasss

 

[AndyVirus]

Wolf Warrior 2 now above Wonder Woman? Which WW will come out on top WW?

 

[The Driver]

Damn, deadest week of the summer so far? Whatever's left of it that is.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

Wow, what a dead weekend. Is there any movies coming next weekend that will bump up the numbers?

 

[SaviorX]

Folks get dragged every day, it is what it is

Folks get dragged everyday B, he be aight

You tough right?

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Inhumass.

And, uh, there's a new Michael Apted movie. So... No.

Wolf Warrior 2 will stay on top pretty easily, unless Japan changes their mind about Wonder Woman in coming weeks.
