It's hard to believe a new Spielberg sci-fi movie opens in less than three weeks
I've seen one of the similar trailers for months in front of almost every movie but otherwise, I just have heard absolutely no buzz or excitement in my circles. The NY press screening is on Monday, June 8, but it feels like this is the kind of movie that should be screening early to get buzz from social reactions.... if it is any good. I'm starting to feel like Universal is just gonna throw it out there and hope for the best knowing that they have The Odyssey waiting in the wings. Am I wrong about this? I mean, has there even been any actual tracking for it?

It reminds me of when Minority Report came out May 26, 01:52
Minority Report came out 3 years before War of the Worlds {nm} May 26, 03:45
Oh, that's right... it's what happens when I have insomnia and post in the middle of the night :) May 26, 05:36
Granted, it also has 24 years of ticket inflation over Minority Report May 26, 05:37
Yeah, I'm sure you're right. A Spielberg/Cruise film opening in summer would have those expectations. {nm} May 26, 06:21
Tracking hit last week. Since it didn't hit the press, you can guess why {nm} May 26, 07:08
Universal is pretty good at holding numbers off for sure. {nm} May 26, 09:33
C'mon, Rupert Pupkin...give us the dirt! :) You can do it under a pseudonym. {nm} May 26, 10:30
Whenever I go to the theater, I see the trailer on the expense end of the reel. By now, I also understand the language. {nm} May 26, 20:01
It's funny cause it's been the exact same trailer, but it just keeps adding more footage as they finish the VFX I guess. {nm} May 27, 05:55
