never can I remember a year where the three best mainstream films of that given year came out in August/September. WARIR is phenomenal! lobogotti Sep 05, 06:49

What is the third, great mainstream movie, then.. ? {nm} Facto Sep 05, 06:57

well Moneyball isn't in the converstaion yet.... lobogotti Sep 05, 07:02

How do you define "mainstream?" Maybe then we can go from there. Were MIDNP or WELPH mainstream? {nm} Buy StarBondFund Sep 05, 07:34

1000+ screens I suppose. if I could walk up on the street and ask someone if they had heard of the film. Midnight in Paris was great lobogotti Sep 05, 09:45

I think there are a bunch that still aren't in the conversation yet... Ruthian23 Sep 05, 07:48

oh yes, there are sure to be great films yet to come. but those are some solid pics for being thrown into August/September {nm} lobogotti Sep 05, 09:42

in my original post, I should have stated "thus far". the next 4 months are sure to turn up some great efforts. {nm} lobogotti Sep 05, 09:48

wow...nice. that good huh? {nm} lobogotti Sep 05, 09:41

What distinguishes Warrior from a 'rasslin movie? Looks like an aim at a devoted, lowbrow audience. The early fanboy reviews do not dispel DTXbro Sep 05, 09:56

I have never seen an MMA fight all the way through. I have no desire to ever see one, this film is not a rasslin movie. That said it will lobogotti Sep 05, 10:04

Maybe it is great art. Maybe it is excellent entertainment. Maybe it is going to win awards. I see no reason to expect any of the three.{nm} DTXbro Sep 05, 10:55

:) give the film a try next weekend and then report back to Delta House {nm} lobogotti Sep 05, 13:30

It takes a hell of a film to pry me from the Delta House festivities. The Help, maybe. Warrior? The only chance I will see it involves my DTXbro Sep 05, 14:55

Not even remotely... it's more about the drama that makes the MMA scenes even more exciting {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 05, 14:15

"What distinguishes Warrior from a 'rasslin movie?" Why would anyone make that comparison? {nm} Serenity Sep 06, 13:40
