razazteca Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 I was afraid that Blood and Chocolate would be #1.
CBright7831 Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 For fuck's sake. Yeah! A friend of mine asked me if I wanted to go see Epic Movie on Friday, and I graciously declined his offer. Had I gone with them, it would have been the first time I would have got to hang out with anybody since November. So here I am, bragging about my lack of social life on TSM.
Gary Floyd Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Movie goers are retarded. Actually, I take that back: Even the retarded wouldn't see this shit.
razazteca Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 In the world of the entertainment the general public would rather waste their money on something familiar than something original and the Hollywood producers are more than happy to make the formulaic cut & paste movie until it isn't profitable . Retards won't see this they are too busy auditioning for American Idol. I feel sorry for todays youth who are iodated with these MTV style movies.
The Niggardly King Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 See, people were complaining about the shitty black movie was #1 again, when an even shittier movie has to come along and knock it off.
C Dubya 04 Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Night at the Museum has now set a box office record. It has the highest gross of any movie that I do not know a single person who's seen it. Seriously, what demographic is that movie so appealing to?
bob_barron Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 It appeals to everyone, that's why it's doing so well. Plus, it's got a great plot. I saw it and it was fine. Not good, not bad, just there. Dick Van Dyke rocked it though

It has the highest gross of any movie that I do not know a single person who's seen it. Seriously, what demographic is that movie so appealing to? You're kidding right? Well kids would like to see this because it looks silly. Since the kids are going, adults have to go. The teenage/college kids would see this because of Stiller. And maybe a few old people want to see it because of Dick Van Dyke. That just about covers every demographic.

You forgot the ladies wanting to go so they can swoon over Owen Wilson dressed like a cowboy. And it has monkeys! Who doesn't like monkeys?!?! Monkeys that pee dammit! And for the men wanting to stare, Clara Gugino in knee high boots and the lovely Mizuo Peck dressed as a Indian MILF Sacajawea. All the bases are covered from top to bottom.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Museum is this decade's "Jumanji".
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 I was afraid that Blood and Chocolate would be #1. Uh..I havent heard anything about that..so unless theres a massive ad campaign I somehow missed.. See, people were complaining about the shitty black movie was #1 again, when an even shittier movie has to come along and knock it off. No way it does 2 weeks in a row #1, but this weekends releases aren't very strong..Ive got a feeling "the Messengers" is a flop..
Youth N Asia Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 I get annoyed when a movie gets a ton of Oscar nominations and goes back into a wider release. I saw the Deprated when it came out. And they're making a big deal with it's "re-release" Going to see Pan's tomrrow. I'll post my views after
bob_barron Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 I remember everyone was cracking up during the trailer for Blood and Chocolate, and then when they revealed the title, everyone laughed even harder. I think Messengers will be #1, Epic Movie will prob have a big drop
Red Baron Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 Smoking Aces was pretty good, but the theatre was only 1/3 full.
SuperJerk Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 I just got back from seeing "Catch and Release," as it was my wife's turn to pick the movie. If you feel the need to see this film for whatever reason, I recommend renting it and fast-forwarding through any scene Kevin Smith isn't in.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 I saw "Stomp the Yard" this week, as every 2 weeks my friends and I go to see the stupidest looking movie really wasted. It wasn't horrible, but was boring at many times, so we should've went to Epic Movie, I guess.
razazteca Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 I remember everyone was cracking up during the trailer for Blood and Chocolate, and then when they revealed the title, everyone laughed even harder. Well Underworld (2003) made $51 million and the sequel made $62 million so there is a market for werewolf chick flicks.

Or it's a market for movies where Kate Beckinsale wears tight black leather suits.

Jennifer Garner's mannish appearance and swollen lips were distracting

foleyfanforever88 Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 Museum is this decade's "Jumanji". I made that connection especially because of Robin Williams, but please..Jumanji is one of my favorite movies of all time. I hated Night at the Museum.

Or it's a market for movies where Kate Beckinsale wears tight black leather suits. Maybe the horror fanboys wanted to see a big budget movie with hot women fighting and we all know that Vampire and/or Werewolf movies can draw. Too bad Blood & Chocolate suffered from both a bad script and unknown cast.

But a werewolf movie titled Blood and Chocolate, well that's just silly.
