DL: Baywatch is opening one day earlier on Thursday May 25 [BAYWT] Apr 07, 13:28
What does your tracking say, if anything yet? I agree that it's really optimistic at this point. {nm} Apr 07, 13:50
Tracking for PIRT5 won't be out for another 3 weeks so wonder where he got that. {nm} Apr 07, 14:06
That was my thinking. Action blockbuster vs. R-rated comedy. Apr 07, 14:31
With Baywatch, I would argue that Paramount's just sitting back and letting the Rock do all the work. ;) {nm} Apr 07, 14:46
Hah, fair point. {nm} Apr 07, 14:56
I could not stay awake during the screening of PIRT5 at CinemaCon. Didn't hear any other positive comments. {nm} Apr 07, 14:15
I heard it was better than OST, which frankly isn't exactly saying much. {nm} Apr 07, 14:18
Are you guys saying that actual overall reception wasn't as good as some would have you believe? {nm} Apr 07, 14:27
CinemaCon is a (mostly) older tough to please crowd, many of whom are film buyers who see 3-6 films a week and who are tired at that point. Apr 07, 14:35
I guess they're the types who've "seen it all"? {nm} Apr 07, 15:20
and the remake and the remake's remake. {nm} Apr 07, 15:24
They have Xerox Will Turner trying to free his father from the Flying Dutchman, hence DMC/AWE redux. Apr 07, 17:11
Really? I heard plenty of good comments. {nm} Apr 07, 16:16
He said he was there so perhaps he heard additional talk. {nm} Apr 07, 17:01
I know several people (including some from my own company) who were there, and they all had good things to say about it {nm} Apr 07, 18:23
