Jurassic World (SPOILERS!)

[Chapter 2099]

Somehow I can't see myself feeling the same way about Terminator Genisys

I think that movie has some promise. I'll admit that I'm not a huge Terminator fan, but I definitely want to see it.

I hope Genisys is to you as JW was for me.

Don't be silly Khev. They don't use condoms in Game of Thrones. They just cut the guy's **** off.

 

[Khev]

I hope Genisys is to you as JW was for me.

You know a-dev we've pretty much already seen all the big trailers that are showing for summer so you can probably skip them when you go see Genisys. Maybe even get there 5 or 10 minutes late. Let us know how that goes....

 

[Chapter 2099]

Cameron did. "Its a straight 10!..........out of 100."

I was literally just typing that! Cameron did an interview recently and thought I remember him saying he liked it, no?

Now....don't get me wrong. Could he have been just doing it to 'be nice'? I mean, I don't know. I believed him though. I just remember thinking, "Cameron liked it. Must be good." Whoever produced that interview was genius because I took the 'bait'. Regardless, I hope it's good. I know the franchise has been through a rough patch. It deserves another good run - has plenty of gas in the tank, if someone can do it right, IMO.

Is it just me or is this movie just like the others? Plot line goes:
Island is set up for people to watch dinosaurs
Main characters with one hero get established
Dinosaur gets out (in the stupidest way possible might I add)
People run
Main characters try to fight/ run from dinosaur
Dino ends up fighting t-Rex while people escape and wait for another bad sequel to come.
The end

And there we've got our plot for the next 10 sequels!

Make sure they're broken.

Don't you rain on my parade!!!!

Hey look. I'm not trying to rain on anybody's parade, but it just blew my mind how a movie can become such a great hit with lines pouring out the door, for something so half ass. It just makes me scratch my head a little. I went and saw it, but was just a little shocked they could release such a sub par movie, ESPECIALLY for what it was suppose to be.
Plus let me point out some things that made absolutely no sense to me. Why would a kid start crying over his aunt not hanging out with him when it's been 8 years since she last saw him? He would've been like 2. I don't remember jack from that age, nor established any type of relationship with anybody at that point, other than my parents.
Second, what was the use of bringing up the whole "parents getting a divorce" thing? What role did that issue really play in the whole scheme of things?

Look, I'm not trying to be one of those cynical dudes that wants to hate on everything. This one genuinely makes me wonder if these studios are really even trying any more. To sit there and wait that many years and release a very sub-par, badly edited (I say this because of the two things I pointed out) cash in.
Please let me write a sequel to this series. I guarantee I would deliver something a lot better. I'm pretty sure a lot of fans out there feel they could do the same

If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it!

Well this summer certainly isn't going to inspire Hollywood to take more risks on new sci-fi. Everything that hasn't been a sequel (Jupiter Ascending, Chappie, Ex Machina, Tomorrowland) has been getting destroyed at the box office.

 

[Rorywan]

I was gonna mention batman v a superman but just remembered it's not out till next year, I sees that movie better have the best visual effects of all time. Never heard of such a long gestation period.

Looks like Inside Out has a 99% critics score after 100 reviews so we'll see how well it weathers the JW onslaught.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Family/kids -- targets the same audience as JW.

Really going to depend on how entertaining it is. Doubt it will have a $200 million domestic opening though. Nor a $500+ million worldwide opening.

Best it can do is hurt JW's take and bump it to #2 spot for the wknd.



I'm rooting for JW in its 2nd weekend. Come on, dinos!

Last three Pixar opening weekends:

1. Monsters University $82,429,469 (6/21/13)
2. Brave $66,323,594 (6/22/12)
3. Cars 2 $66,135,507 (6/24/11)

Based on that I'd say that Inside Out pretty much has no chance of taking the top spot away from JW.

None of my local theaters have conceded any of JW's IMAX showings to Pixar tomorrow so it won't even benefit from the extra large format upcharge.

*checks weekend showings for local D-Box auditorium* Yep, all JW for all showings there too.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Nothing from Pixar since 2013? What about that terrible redhead girl movie? Brave?

This is interesting, if the reviews hold up and this is Pixars best reviewed film, it will be the first I believe in the companies history that doesn't open number one at the box office.

 

[Khev]

After The Avengers made $207 million its opening weekend here's what it did for weekend #2:

1. Marvel's The Avengers $103,052,274
2. Dark Shadows $29,685,274

As you can see Dark Shadows ($150 million budget) debuted the following week and got hammered.

Dinosaurs > everything else.
