New trailer for Twisters [TWIS2] Antibody May 08, 15:49

does P+ plan on sharing MI: Dead Reckning Part One with another streamer anytime soon?...lol {nm} tealfan May 08, 14:23

If you somehow buy the Angel Studios claim that DAVID will be the top grossing animated film of all time, they are still seeking investors notfabio May 08, 12:48

Typically speaking investors in these lose their shirts (and possible here) but Sound of Freedom did return 120% notfabio May 08, 12:50

Does that mean your investment back + 20%, or double your investment + 20% {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 13:22

NM, its the former, which I would call a 20% return, not 120%. {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 13:29

Also, that's quite a claim for something not even made yet. I'd say making claims like that reduces their credibility & ability to attract $ {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 13:27

Their audience is almost entirely faith based who are easy pickings for a grift {nm} Moviesnob May 08, 14:01

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesus, man pro-satoshi May 08, 15:50

Its not everyone. *hence the word "almost" but you can take a look at the theaters that do well with their movies and it aint the OC or IE {nm} Moviesnob May 08, 15:59

When I saw your subject line I was expecting this (inside) DTravel May 08, 18:37

THR: The new Dora the Explorer live action movie is being made (for now) for P+ Samantha Lorraine is the new Dora (16) notfabio May 08, 11:43

One of the pitfalls of doing live action Dora movies, either you cast too young or have to replace them for sequels. Moner is 22 now. notfabio May 08, 11:52

Shawn has brought back Box Office Theory and predicts $42 - $50m+ for Apes ($46.7m for an exact number) TheWeekendWarrior May 08, 09:42

Box Office Pro predicts $40-45m TheWeekendWarrior May 08, 09:42

I'm going over $50m for Apes... maybe because I've actually seen the movie and know it'll play well TheWeekendWarrior May 08, 09:43

He's got Phantom Menace in there; I thought that was one week only. Has that changed, has it been extended beyond tomorrow? {nm} goodvibe61 May 08, 10:06

Yes, they've extended it beyond last weekend. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior May 08, 10:12

Heck yes. {nm} VictorY May 08, 10:33

aww...would have been nice if he could have joined the Pick 7 this year...he won in 2017...looks like he's been off HSX for awhile now {nm} tealfan May 08, 11:50

His earlier 4 week forecast for May - regrets on my pick 7 Dobs May 08, 13:41

When and even more, why, is everyone who brought coffee to a subcontractor for a film in the end credits? terraformingearth May 08, 08:55

In the entertainment industry more often than not it's titles/credits over actual pay. {nm} notfabio May 08, 09:03

Also some throwing an exec producer credit keeps talent/financial backers happy [My company co-produced AVATAR!] {nm} notfabio May 08, 09:06

I get it for someone in a position like that. But assistant to the fiberglass person? {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 10:58

That is worth your name on the screen! {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 11:10

But why? Why would anyone not one of the top billing people want a quarter second on a screen over pay? {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 10:58

The alternative is usually no gig at all, and you never know, 2nd Assistant to Golf Cart Guy on Avengers may get you a bigger gig later. {nm} notfabio May 08, 11:01

Kevin Feige was Lauren Shuler Donner's assistant on Volcano and You Got Mail and that got him a producer gig on X-Men and the rest is....MCU {nm} notfabio May 08, 11:04

Also, guilds play into it and getting credits is sometimes needed to be eligible for membership in the guild. {nm} notfabio May 08, 11:07

That also makes some sense, thank you for answering. Still seems like an odd system. {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 11:09

That's Showbiz! Hundreds of years of weird wild stuff. {nm} notfabio May 08, 11:18

That may be, but was it the experience/recommendations that did it, or did having his name flash by onscreen really make a difference? {nm} terraformingearth May 08, 12:34

So you can show your family and friends that you are immortalised in history. {nm} RufusS May 08, 11:09

Getting to work in this industry is a privilege and an honor! {nm} Moviesnob May 08, 11:11

DL: Puck wasn't making up the Come to Jesus meeting Apple leadership had with Apple TV execs, Ricky Strauss out as head of marketing. notfabio May 07, 14:38

Though very likely the story was planted. {nm} notfabio May 07, 14:38

they cant keep that position filled {nm} Moviesnob May 07, 14:52

given how badly they promote their shows, more surprising the position actually exists {nm} co-bro May 07, 15:12

I was surprised he had been there 16 months! ARGYLLE hit Apple TV April 12th so data from that likely last straw for him. notfabio May 07, 15:16

PUCK: Sony and WB are considered the favorites to distribute FORM1 but no deal, Apple is working with IMAX on what their availability is. notfabio May 07, 12:59

Upper Apple TV management is not thrilled with performance of films to date and FORM1 may be the last straw to make them work. {nm} notfabio May 07, 13:02

Also stress from high dollar deals with TV talent/Severance S2 is TENS OF MILLIONS of dollars overbudget. {nm} notfabio May 07, 13:03

at least from the social buzz (SZA was begging for s2 last week on twitter), Severance is probably a top 3 driver of Apple+ subs? co-bro May 07, 13:54

I think only Morning Show, Ted Lasso, Silo, and HiJack are the only ones to hit Nielsen charts {nm} notfabio May 07, 13:59
