 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
And after 3 full days of BO, Transformers is still at an A- for a grade with over 6600 reviews.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
The Transformers grade looks like it will drop down to a B+ soon where it will end up sticking.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
Bruno should cross 950 reviews and looks good for $15m+, far surpassing tracking. I Love You, Beth Cooper will inch over 200 but is far from a breakout. I could see a $2m Friday, though.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
Also, I pointed out why the grade went down, the damn book purists. They are never happen, but will always show up so they can complain. I think the grade will stay at A- from here out.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
I'm trying to figure out where those 900+ reviews came from? 11:30?
I wish I would've started this earlier in the day, to get people who cheated.

I know LOTR fans that hated the movies because of the changes. A movie is different than a book there is no way it can keep everything in it. There will be changes and you have to accept that and look at the film as something different.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
This did one of the best jobs of keeping the books main ideas and themes together. It lost some in translation, but not nearly as much as say GOF.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
Anyone that complains about material in Half-Blood Prince being left out is, quite frankly, stupid.
The film adaptation includes more of the book version than any past Potter film easily. There isn't a single important part of the book that is left out. I can think of one memory they did not show (of the Gaunt Residence featuting Voldemort's mother and everything), but the Horcrux located there, the ring Dumbledore shows and briefly talks about, is still included in the film. It's silly to say the film adaptation left things out of this one like the previous films.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
Our theater has yet to sell out today. How is everybody else theaters doing because I do not see very many sell outs. How big is the rush factor for HP FILMS.

Here in Anchorage most films excluding TDK, DMC, and ROTF do not start selling out till around 7pm, the other three started at 5pm.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
TDK was at 4500 by now.
So the ratio will be MUCH lower.

 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - 2009
It's a stupid comparison. And besides, TDk did like 12000 right? the next closest I think was SM3 with 7000, so. HP5 and MAYBE Transformers 2 since it too was released on a WED are the only recent films to use.
