Movies

Yeah, that's pretty much all I can say too haha.

Posted by: darknightz on Sep 28, 20:41 in response to Krubino's post I suppose all I can say is we'll see.

I just thought that your reasons for this movie doing well were a little off.

But now that you bring twitter up.. as I recall, tracking on twitter for WALS2 was pretty good, and we were all longing WALS2.  Ironically, profiles bombed as WALS2 bombed, so I'm not sure twitter is the best measure =/.  I haven't checked the facebook page, but even if it had a good number of people "attending", it still depends on whether or not there is good WOM.

I'm also kinda losing faith in critics now.  They gave such low grades for good quality comedies in the past, and it's a shame.  They gave lots of A+ for that blue alien film, and that looked like nothing special either (CGI aside).  So it's hard to judge from the critics.  They kinda hated on IRNM2, but man that still made quite a killing during opening weekend.

P.S. This is kinda off topic but uh... Megan Fox is pretty famous now, but her movies haven't been extraordinary.  I doubt many people have heard of that Jesse Eisenberg guy, so we can't really base success on his acting either =/.  Just my two cents.

Why are RS's numbers reported as ranges and not whole numbers? Arcsol Sep 27, 10:17

It's only within the last month or two that they've started being reported here as ranges. Before that is was always a single number. shadowking Sep 27, 12:52

SOCIL will overperform. Krubino Sep 27, 15:54

SOCIL will underperform Pr0n Sep 27, 18:35

?? It will OVERperform. Krubino Sep 27, 23:57

Rottentomatoes currently 100% for SOCIAL: 6 more for perfect rare certified fresh Krubino Sep 28, 12:59

Still 100%... until Armond White comes in haha. {nm} Krubino Sep 29, 09:09

ARMOND WHITE ENTERS WITH NEGATIVE REVIEW: NOW GO SEE IT! Krubino Sep 29, 17:35

If it does OVERperform, it will not be due to those reasons. darknightz Sep 28, 16:10

Look at numbers, spoof movies don't bomb Lucky856 Sep 28, 17:29

Lots of them bomb, they all bomb with critics, and Social Network is NOT a spoof movie. Krubino Sep 28, 18:04

Doesn't matter how good the movie is, just how much money it makes Lucky856 Sep 28, 20:40

Yeah, that's pretty much all I can say too haha. darknightz Sep 28, 20:41

I appreciate the nice responses. Krubino Sep 28, 21:36

Yup, it gets pretty rough on some online forums; people act all tough and mean but I think HSX keeps it pretty cool. Most of the time haha {nm} darknightz Sep 28, 21:52

No reason to act like an idiot Lucky856 Sep 29, 11:11

^^Krubino's behaviour in this thread was kinda uncalled for and stupid though {nm} DomoI Oct 03, 08:04

Yeah, but then again judging by this weekend, he's not the smartest kid around.... Lucky856 Oct 03, 13:08

Look who was wrong. DomoI Oct 03, 08:11
