yeah. they're both doing great on the indie front right now.

They were trying to grab your prize. They work for the mercenary. The masked man.
Stewart has a really good indie career post-Twilight.

Pattinson was in a secret 9-11 movie
Stewart was Snow White and stole the director

That and it's not going to have a digital copy apparently? The hell?

Pattinson's clear disdain for Twilight was always funny to watch.
Dude just wanted the money and exposure so he could be in indies.

Yeah. They are probably each getting Oscar noms sooner than later. Specially Stewart.
Nigga what???????

Robert Pattison's the gold standard for youngish actors put as the lead in blockbuster franchises. Keep your head low, stick to indies for a couple of years, build some cred with the film reviewer nerd populace, hover around the Sundance/Tribeca/Cannes scene for a while.
Aka the exact opposite of everything Dane Dehaan's been doing since Chronicle.

In that performance K-Stew gives probably the single worst dramatic monologue I have ever heard in a film.
idk, until the end of 2016 his filmography is pretty alright aside from Spider-Man. Then in 2017 he had the combo of A Cure for Wellness + Valerian.
We still talk about that scene with a friend to this day. One of our favorite bad dramatic moment along with Pirates 4 mermaid's name reveal.

Avengers and Spider-Man changed aspect ratios too. As did Terminator.

I mean I think its pretty fair to say summer movie season is officially over
Is it just me or does this picture taken at the Dark Tower premiere look like Cub Gooding Jnr is trying to stop a drunken Idris Elba from attacking Tom Rothman?
I remember nothing about Pirates 4 but I have no doubt you're right. Sitting through the third act of that film was straight up torture.

Lmaooo. Can't unsee that now. You might not be off the mark
Also I finally know what Tom Rothman looks like. The face of evil.
For much of the same reason. Cameron didn't like what options were available to shoot in anamorphic scope. Though truth to be told he always was the kinda guy who preferred shooting in flat format. Still does. I mean he even reframed Titanic to 1.78:1 for the 3D re-release.

I mean that very well could be the case

I've been super intrigued in Pattinson ever since The Rover. While Cosmopolis was a piece of shit and Life was by-the-numbers forgettable, he's generally found his way to interesting projects post-Twilight. I respect him for being someone who's very clearly more interested in working with actors he respects and materials that genuinely excites him as opposed to just cashing in on larger, probably more lucrative franchises. I'm looking forward to seeing Good Time and I thought he was very solid in The Lost City of Z.

Yeah, today's gotta be the day Diana crosses $400 mil domestic.
Unless it happened at a 10pm showing last night

About $36M. It should make over $30M today as well. That will put it close to $540M in China, which surpasses the Mermaid.
Force Awakens made $31m domestic on its second monday. Was sitting at a higher domestic total ($571m) but this is still fucking incredible for some no name $29m movie from China vs. the most iconic and popular movie franchise of all time.

Wolf Warrior Cinematic Universe coming.

That seems really poor for Planet of the Apes. Wasn't its budget a huge step-up from the previous two films as well?
One thing Sony are good at with their animated films is doing high-quality CGI on a relatively low budget. Cloudy Meatballs, Hotel Transylvania and Angry Birds were all very good looking films made for $60-$90 million, if memory serves. I would assume the CGI in Emoji is really good too.
I assume the Shrek franchise includes Puss In Boots as well?
Valerian must be looking at about $400 mil box office before it turns a profit, right? Crazy. Luc, you crazy.

Cameron fans: I'm making a thread on a new interview. You might be interested in it.

I always found Tom Cruise's hair captivating in that film. Sponsored by Loreal
Also, I wonder if Dougray Scott was pissed off at himself for passing over Wolverine for that role. Although I think Jackman was perfect in the role I always wondered what Scott would have been like.
Dougray should have been Sabretooth.
It had a lower budget than Dawn, but the numbers are still disappointing.

thats exactly what it looks like
I haven't even heard of American Made.
You should watch the trailer. Looks pretty good.
Speaking of a trailer that looks pretty good, Jesus that Mother trailer looks hot. Just the right amount of weirdness. Looks very intriguing.
Aronofsky is pretty reliable. At worst, you'll get a middling film with a few standout sequences.

You mean it looks ridiculously predictable and full of easy-to-guess details that obviously spoil the whole movie so badly you had to turn it off halfway through to make sure you didn't ruin the movie you're probably not even going to watch until it shows up on Amazon Prime.
(I mean, that's what I'm getting from that trailer thread)
Just insane. Is it on track to beat TFA's dom gross of $936m to be the highest grossing movie of all time in a single territory?
My wife took all three of our kids last week and they all (including the wife) loved it.
It might still miss that. China legs are hard to predict. Over $800M is going to happen. People who follow China box office closer than I do think that it has a shot at passing 6B RMB, which is currently around $900M. So probably spitting distance, even if TFA's single territory recond holds.

Frank Grillo is still a threat
