Wow, three "comebacks" to me merely point out a simple fact...

Posted by: secretstalker (a.k.a TheWeekendWarrior) on Aug 17, 04:23 in response to Vashta Nerada's post Snark is nice. You should try for some of that thought...

If you don't even know simple things like the fact that TTWRF isn't a romantic comedy and you don't point out that it had a 2.4 internal mult which shows a HUGe amount of frontloading due to the fans of the book rushing out to see it, then why is your opinion better than anyone else's?

Thoughts on this weekends openers and delist. Vashta Nerada Aug 16, 23:23

TTWRF isn't a romantic comedy... nice try though. {nm} secretstalker Aug 16, 23:24

Snark is nice. You should try for some of that thought you where mentioning and try make a constructive post for once. {nm} Vashta Nerada Aug 16, 23:27

And you could have said that in your first post. "Nice try though" doesn't leave much room for dialog. {nm} H-Mogul Aug 17, 08:07

We might actually get people talking on this board. There isn't really much dialog you can work into snark. Try one of those opinions you Vashta Nerada Aug 16, 23:28

Maybe it's just a romance movie. Those tend to have legs too as the people that see them tend not to run out the first weekend. Word of Vashta Nerada Aug 16, 23:33

TTWRF had a 2.4 internal mult compared to the 3 point something that JULIE had... secretstalker Aug 17, 04:20

And #3 -- did you actually *SEE* the reviews? something like 34% on RT, 2nd worst to TGRDS. secretstalker Aug 17, 04:27

why so high and mighty ? chill {nm} JMT Aug 17, 00:13

I think there are too many chick flicks out there, I know they tend to hold up well post adjust but I am not banking on TTRWF to follow suit {nm} leo21 Aug 17, 03:17

My female take-TTWRF has a creepy factor, duly noted in the reviews, and Bana is bland. Post adj short. {nm} maltrinity Aug 17, 04:59

Bana has always been bland. {nm} SocioEvo Aug 17, 05:58

PJACK definitely helped DIST9 but he wasn't the deciding factor for most I'd bet. And critics we not so-so {nm} MiyazakiFan Aug 17, 06:30

Agreed on the critics. 88% RT and especially 81 at Metacritic are a long way from so-so. {nm} shadowking Aug 17, 07:11

Didn't know it ws at 88%. The few I looked at seemed to pooh pooh the movie. I'm hoping to get to see this next weekend. It's been awhile H-Mogul Aug 17, 08:24
