He's probably raved about lots of 1M-dollar films also. The trailer for DAYBR is not good. And what's that cheesy use of "Running Up the Hil

l" (cover version of Kate Bush-classic UK hit from '85) towards the end?

This thing could do anything between "Equilibrium" and "The Children of Men".

I don't see it being a big hit at all. Sorry.

I'm in two minds about DAYBR - does anyone else think it is doomed because of AVATR? {nm} donnie_darko Jan 05, 16:49

its not because of avatar that itll not make a BO statement. {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 05, 16:50

Beware! DAYBR is shades of ULTVT. {nm} Richard In G Jan 05, 19:35

It's difficult to spark interest in this climate. Daybreakers doesn't get with the general tone that Avatar has struck, and is no Twilight Toruk Facto Jan 05, 17:13

I mean doesn't *gel* with {nm} Toruk Facto Jan 05, 17:19

30 Days of Night starred [JHART] not [EHAWK], I think that makes a difference when analyzing... Chimaera81 Jan 05, 18:21

Indeed, my memory was faulty.. I'm looking at the film, Daybreakers, and it seems a little bleak, and could also be attention demanding? Toruk Facto Jan 05, 18:47

AVATR does not help it sneak Jan 05, 17:14

It won't be a blockbuster, but it is the first weekend opener in two weeks and I am Avatared out. {nm} icecreamman Jan 05, 17:26

Nope... the guys who've seen Avatar will be looking for something else to see. DAYBR trailer is on XBOx Live, which is huge IMO {nm} secretstalker Jan 05, 17:29

What other trailers have been on Xbox Live? {nm} Antibody Jan 05, 17:34

IIRC "9" was also on xbox live. {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 05, 17:37

The Final Destination, Legion... can't remember others. They're well-placed for a lot of eyes. {nm} secretstalker Jan 05, 18:02

Geeksville, USA? It'll be interesting to see where this one goes.. I thought that in order to have real box office punch, stuff needs to app Toruk Facto Jan 05, 17:55

Either way, I don't think I can decide how this will go until Friday donnie_darko Jan 05, 18:26

for no good reason I like the white noise comparison {nm} sneak Jan 05, 18:44
