I thought the trailer looked pretty good though. And because of this:

;O

Holy shit!

My dream came true :-O

This movie is a must see for me.

They are not going to show the boobs its PG-13.  Also the trailers look pretty lame if you want to see a great movie trailer watch Cloud Atlas or Life of Pie.


I liked the Total Recall trailer. But the have to show the 3 tited women they have to :'-( PLEASE

The Life Pi is a Ang Lee Movie :/ I don´t watch Ang Lee movies anymore. But it has a Tiger in it but I fear the Tiger will die at the end so this movie will be a no go.

The Life of Pi looks like the best Ang Lee movie since Croutching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and that's one of my all time favorite movies of all time.  Also I have heard that the tiger is all CGI if that's true its some of the best CGI work ever.  Even if the tiger dies at the end it still looks like it going to be a great movie.  It reminds me of Castaway also and the tiger is kinda like Wilson.

The Hunger Games had a 180% increase :-o

Dollar theatres FTW? Could end up at $407 Million...amazing run.


It going to be more then $407 million its going to play untill the end of August at least and its already really close to $406 million.  I'm Guessing close to $410 million by the time it stops showing.

Sunday Update: Warner Bros. estimates thatThe Dark Knight Rises will take in $64.075 million during its sophomore frame, pushing its domestic total to $289.086 million. International numbers will be in a bit later today.

 

And it looks like they're expecting only 18m for Total Recall OW, so I guess it will stay #1 next weekend as well.

TDKR will launch in 40 more countries next weekend o.O

Edit: Or maybe they were talking about last weekend >_>


Although the trailers for Total Recall look lame to me and I don't excpect that most people will like it I think it will do better then 18m on its opening weekend. That would be a disasterous opening especially since it has a $200 million dollar budget.  I'm guessing it will do between 20 and 30 million.  Speaking of budgets Cloud Atlas with a rumored $100 million budget looks miles better then Total Recall it looks miles better then Speed Racer the last movie the Watchowskis directed also and that had a $120 million dollar budget.

I'm guessing you don't like martial arts movies in general then or you don't like foreign language movies.

You are kidding. I love Martial Movies, I watched Van Damme Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan movie. And I even like some of those Jet li Flying Martial Movies, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was just too much flying and nonsense.

It was mostly giant leaps not really flying.  The actual weapons combat was top notch the story was great and the music composed by Tan Dun and played by Yo Yo Ma was briliant.  I'm guessing you hate House of Flying Daggers also.

Holy Shit people really don´t care about "The Watch".
Just like Jeremy Jahns said, releasing a movie in the same week with Batman? This is where movies go to die.

It's a slighly better movie then "That's My Boy" so it really didn't deserve a better opening.
