I'd go for [UPAIR] ...

Posted by: Somerset (a.k.a woods081180) on Nov 24, 03:03 in response to Facto's post Alright then, one month out: Which do we think will do...

...people seem to be responding to the trailers, it has a great rotten tomatoes score already and the limited release pattern should build WOM through December before the 25th.

It's big downside is Clooney - he just doesn't do big openingsĀ outside the Ocean's films (whereas Streep has shown herself more than capable). People may also be bored of him by December 25th. I'll stick with the choice though, I think it has the broadest appeal and I just didn't like the It's Complicated trailer - but I'm hardly the demographic expected to go nuts over a geriatric love triangle.

Alright then, one month out: Which do we think will do better on Nov 25 - Up in the Air or It's Complicated? Arguably in direct competition. {nm} Facto Nov 24, 02:52

Oh frak, *December* 25, of course... [UPAIR] and [CMPLC] for posterity {nm} Facto Nov 24, 02:54

Ok, brilliant, we completely disagree then - nothing more inspiring than that :-) Facto Nov 24, 03:53

For the record: It opens in limited release for a couple of weeks, then supposedly expands wide on Dec 25. Facto Nov 24, 06:18

Ps. I also recommend the comments section to that review {nm} Facto Nov 24, 06:32

Another review I can truly vouch for (also includes a review of Megan's Body, which I haven't seen, interspersed with it): Facto Nov 24, 14:47

I'm leaning towards CMPLC because it seems like a more commercial movie, but anything can happen Christmas weekend {nm} RogerMore Nov 24, 06:24

With you on that. UPAIR may be too personal and low-key..ish. Don't people want pure entertainment rather than reality during Xmas holidays? {nm} Facto Nov 24, 06:35

It's Complicated--and it won't even be close {nm} RupertPupkin Nov 24, 09:46

Very much agreed - without having seen It's Complicated, other than trailers, but still... {nm} Facto Nov 24, 09:58

There are currently two errors on the movie description on the security page (for UPAIR), btw: Facto Nov 24, 11:44

Oscar nom trumps bland romantic comedy {nm} thatpj Nov 24, 13:27

Among critics and feinschmeckers for sure, but are you sure you considered it in an HSX-context now.. ? Or more personal opinion/taste? {nm} Facto Nov 24, 13:42
