Why do people always talk about runtimes?

Avatar and Titanic are both nearly 3 hours. Same with Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises. If the movie is good, people will go regardless.

Also, Bond didn't open during a hooliday weekend, did that effect it's box office? Two Towers did not open during holidays and it adjusts to 84M and that is without the 3D upcharge which would get you to 100M. Also Return of the King did not open under a holiday either and adjusts to 95M, well over 100M with 3D upcaharge.

Sorry but this price movement defies logic and history.

Why is Hobbit dropping like a rock in a pond the exchange!? geckoidol Nov 12, 21:12

(sadly shaking my head) I've had to erase what I started to type, several times. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Nov 12, 21:41

You need to keep up with current events and not pop in once a week to ask why your stock is going in a direction you don't like. {nm} PVL Admin Nov 12, 21:53

I check in every day. I look at the news associated with HOBBIT. I found nothing new. What am I missing? {nm} geckoidol Nov 12, 21:59

Every day, you say? You need to pay A LOT closer attention then... see IM These are not short threads! PVL Admin Nov 12, 22:06

Go back at least the last 10 pages, as this one has been brought up many times. Also see me answer below. Regards Gavin {nm} Gavin Nov 12, 22:08

Idol, the thing is that all three sneaky little hobbitzesss were priced as if they were July openers, but then someone reminded the exchange Facto Nov 12, 23:16

That's not case either as Hobbit 3, opening in July is also dropping like a rock {nm} thatpj Nov 13, 11:14
