Reactions to NTBTC from TIFF seem to be mostly positive, saying it's much better than that trailer {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 08, 06:26

Jatinder: Looks like $41M SAT for #BeetleJuiceBeetleJuice. Outstanding 41% jump from FRI…. WorkinMan Sep 07, 20:03

ECBO: It’s looking like $41m Saturday for @BeetleJuice… WorkinMan Sep 07, 20:06

i'm stunned at how entertaining Beetlejuice 2 is... pro-satoshi Sep 07, 18:03

the first is indirectly responsible for the current studio production process - it led to BATMAN which lead directly to...all this Moviesnob Sep 07, 22:42

it's hard to convey just how pervasive that dumb black and yellow bat logo was that summer. the marketing was insane {nm} wow platinum Sep 07, 22:58

Was Batman when the studios started taking 90% of opening weekend and then having a sliding scale that eventually allows theaters to make $? {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 08, 06:14

No one does that. Uni gives theaters.a.few.options for each title including a sliding scale but it's rarely.the best option {nm} Moviesnob Sep 08, 10:07

You mean that no one does that anymore... but that was the norm for many years. I was asking if it started with Batman. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 08, 21:01

Great poster for SMIL2 , would have you believe stars Jack Nicholson Antibody Sep 07, 17:29

It's funny. I don't think his son looks like him at all, really. But that poster looks 100% like they used a pic of Jack... RamsFan2004 Sep 07, 18:05

David Poland had been hinting at a film he saw a few weeks ago that he was surprised how much he liked, he more or less said it was TFONE notfabio Sep 07, 15:13

DL: FRTRM around $600K Antibody Sep 07, 08:01

2nd weekend in a row with a horror bomb, and that kind of start might make it tough for this to open in the top 10. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 08:10

Worst trailer I've seen in a long time. Probably didn't help. {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 07, 11:13

What really would have helped is if it was a good movie. Both critical and audiences score are low {nm} Moviesnob Sep 07, 11:35

WB has spoken: Beetlejuice $41.5m Friday in 4,575 theaters {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 07:24

I think it'll do over $100m... at least I hope so cause that's what I picked on GD :) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 07:24

Ugh... I accidentally put in "$44.5" into my Excel chart... so yeah, it'll be close. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 07:28

Sorry ECBO, the trades' $38M is closer to $41.5M than your $48M Antibody Sep 07, 07:38

And Jatinder was closer than both (though also later on in the day) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 07:41

I don't know what's worse. Him tweeting for.personal gain or the fact he is wrong most the time {nm} Moviesnob Sep 07, 10:44

V review: HORZ2 Frustrates Once Again. just as unwieldy and bewilderingly scattershot as the first. Antibody Sep 07, 06:42

both V and THR mentioned the Native Americans have given way to the Chinese. Only one non-white ethnic angle at a time Antibody Sep 07, 06:49

CinemaScore: B+ for BEET2 WorkinMan Sep 07, 00:56

What did I say? :) At least the RT Popcornmeter is higher than the Critics Score. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 05:49

Popcornmeter won {nm} Antibody Sep 07, 07:01

won't be Certified Fresh {nm} Antibody Sep 07, 07:01

or Verified Hot {nm} Antibody Sep 07, 07:06

What's the cutoff for Verified Hot again? 90%? {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 07:52

It’s showing up as ‘Certified Fresh’ for me… {nm} RamsFan2004 Sep 07, 07:31

That's the Tomatometer, not Popconrmeter {nm} Antibody Sep 07, 07:41

Front Room C-, also not surprising. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Sep 07, 06:35
