Well, that's disappointing.
With ticket prices as high as they are... Earnings are obviously overblown.
If Gone with the Wind had as many ticket sales today as when it was released, it would’ve likely have made 2 or 3 billion dollars in revenue. Making todays films appear more like ‘B’ movies, rather than ‘A’ list movies.
Don’t do movies much at all any more. Haven’t seen any of these three and don’t plan on it. Not even if you can eventually rent the VHS. Or is that something else now? \_(**)_/
I saw it and it was a great film although I wondered how many in the audience really understood it. I would never have thought a serious film like Oppenheimer would have done almost $1 Billion at the box office. It goes to show that a well made film without a Woke agenda to it can do very well when it tells a great story.
The question is will the rest of Hollywood see this and abandon the WOKE? I think some will, Universal is avoiding it, but Disney seems determined to Double Down and do as much as they can. They have hired Jenna Ortega for some film roles, like a reboot of Pirates of the Caribbean, Jenna is no fan of woke and has told Disney she will not play a Woke character in any film for them. So let’s see what Disney does.
I've heard our interest payment alone with be a trillion dollars a year, and inflation only makes it worse. Wait until the unfunded liabilities start becoming due. They used t o criticize Ronald Reagan for making the debt a trillion. We've added another 32 trillion in just 35 years.
From where I sit, if my bank account looked like that my only way out would be bankruptcy or a bullet to the brain.
Either way that is not rich. But it's rather interesting that he would make this claim. More proof that he's an idiot.
With adultery, a bomb test, and Cold War politics ground thoroughly into the mix.
This movie is successful because Nolan directed it.
Nolan is the best director of the 21st Century. What draws audiences to his films are the story lines, the character struggles. He minimizes special effects as much as possible.
I would love for him to do a biopic on George Washington, to be released in 2026. I think such a movie would easily top $5 billion.
“Oppenheimer” was the best movie I’ve seen in several years, and it’s the best film Christopher Nolan has made, which is saying something.
I think it was the naked woman in the film that brought in the guys....
But how does Clayton Moore fit into all this?
My God, did it suck!
Three hours of watching cartoon characters preaching and preening on screen. Best picture for makeup, perhaps. Otherwise it was interminable and dreadful.
Last Sunday my wife and I watched the movie Tar. I was not impressed. In retrospect, having suffered through Oppenheimer, Tar was a much more original and worthwhile film. Watching Oppenheimer, getting nuked and vaporized in a thermonuclear war would have come as a welcome relief.
