Movies

Yeah, so I saw a lot of movies this weekend.

Elizabeth: The Golden Age - Mediocre, at best. Slow and dragged on. Shorten it to 2 hours and it's golden. It's not, so it fails.

Michael Clayton - Amazing. Everything about it is awesome. However, it's VERY complex and mind bending. You have to think, so be prepared. I still feel like I'm missing key details of exactly what happened. Gotta see it again.

Across the Universe - Perfect is one word that comes to mind. It just works. And, contrary to many people I bet, the movie is best viewed sober. Trust me.

Why do production companies do this to themselves??

Take for instance, the great instant classic, Disaster Movie. Who green lit that trainwreck?

Who initially thinks these will make money? They made 10 Million less than their budget!
My guess is those flicks are very cheap to make. Plus, they make a ton of money back on DVD even if they flop at the theater.

True about the DVD. But I read on IMDB that the movie cost 25 Million to make on only made 14 in the theaters.

But your right about the DVD sales, they probably make up for the lost revenue at the movies.

DVD sales generate roughly twice the box office gross. In many cases, it's far more (Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery being a prime example).

I expect The Dark Knight DVD sales to go through the roof in a few weeks.

Guess that's how cult classics start.

I'll be buying it, and Iron Man. I don't buy that many movies, but I just really liked both of them.

It's also why I think you'll start to see television networks greenlight multiple seasons at a time. DVD usually means that a show will catch on post-cancellation. This indicates two things: people will love shows regardless of their "ratings" while they ran and they can make boat loads of money after the run of the show.

I think the television industry has yet to catch on to that.

I have noticed that even in shows that I had long forgotten and had no desire to watch again, I saw Full House on the shelves at Best Buy. I just can't believe that there are THAT many people out there that would purchase all seasons of Full House.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the DVD sales part of the reason for the return of Family Guy though??

Yes. It's also why Arrested Development's movie, if it ever happens, as well as a Veronica Mars movie, will kill at the box office. It's thanks to the DVDs. Because the networks cancelled both.

DVDs make it extremely obvious to people if a network is dumb. Just take AD, VM, Firefly, and countless others. They weren't viewed as mistakes by the station until the dvds were released.

I ran a search of the thread, but it came back with no responses...

Has anyone seen Transsiberian?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800241/

92% at Rotten Tomatoes, I picked it up at Blockbuster tonight to watch with the wife over some Chinese food.

Anyone?

I watched it a few days ago and thought it was a pretty solid thriller. Well worth a watch.
