Make better movies, and maybe things would turn around.
People have Xmas shopping to do
Last night went to see Pyramid which we walked out after 15 minutes of the worst B film ever in a theater only to end up with John Carey’s latest Dumb and Dumber - I can’t even watch John Carey anymore as he is just too old to play in these movies....
That graphic on the left is pretty idiotic.
$70 for a family of four with ssnacks and drinks. In this economy it’s no wonder.
Not going to the movies until Dec 17. Then, probably two in one day: Hobbit pt 3 and Night at the Museum 3. May pop for the IMAX 3D Hobbit.
There wasn’t a new movie out at all. Such a dumb story. Wait until December 25th. That day is going to explode with the new Angelina Director Movie.....Good God I can’t wait for that movie. So sick you bashing Hollywood especially about such a dumb weekend that had no movies. The worst movie of the year was conservative “Skipping Christmas”.....now that is an FU Kurt Cameron on the dumbest movie ever.....well except for American Carol which sucked badly.
I’m afraid to see what they did to Exodus.
Bale’s opening his yap about how Moses was one of the most brutal people in history.
If that’s the story they are telling, I’m not sure I want to hear it. That guy is possessed.
I’ve pretty much given up on going to the movies.
I have better pictures and much, much better sounds at home.
Plus, I can pause to slip out and take a bodacious Obama, and reload with whatever shacks I wish.
Nothing opened wide this weekend, that’s gonna hold things down a bit. Exodus starts this weekend, then Hobbit, and Into the Woods. There’s still some fat cash they’ll be making.
Guardians of the Galaxy was the best movie I've seen this year. Saw it twice. It was the first film since original Star Wars that felt like Star Wars. Tons of fun.
Runner up was Tom Cruise's sci-fi outing Edge of Tomorrow. Awesome film.
Lucas was right in that film is becoming a niche market. All of the actors and directors are moving to TV for the quality stories, more dependable work, and the chance to build characters over many episodes and season. They're fine to leave film as the arena for small, independent films or big budget comic book stuff.
TV is where it's at.
As much as we enjoy hearing news like this, don’t forget they make up losses by foreign markets.
My wife wanted to go see “Foxcatcher” the film about John Dupont’s wrestling fixation this weekend. It was one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. Slow and inert, it was like having someone wave garbage under your nose for 2 1/2 hours.
Maybe I’ll go back to the theaters when the 3D Terminator movie comes out.
Well thats about how long its been since I’ve been to the movies.
I saw “Interstellar” over the weekend.
Technically spectacular, I am disappointed such fine actors lent their talents to a story that put all of its faith in the efforts of man, with nary a nod to the Creator.
I stopped going to movies several years back. There’s just too many distractions, particularly illuminated cell phones. People are admonished to turn them off and put them away; no matter, the last time I was there many were texting and a few were actually having conversations. Never again. We’re living in an age when it’s almost impossible to shield ourselves from either visual or aural impositions.
I haven’t been to a theater this century.
Gone Girl was a decently made movie——if you can get over that Ben Affleck is the star.
