 Re: Predict The CinemaScore's For This Weekend's Openers
Could totally see Jones getting an A-. I think regular moviegoers will like it much more than critics.

 Re: Predict The CinemaScore's For This Weekend's Openers
I think regular moviegoers will also be turned off from the DTV-like camerawork of the movie even if they are impressed with the actual movie

Why does it even look so cheap when it cost as much as it did? They never should have spent so much on this movie.

 Re: Predict The CinemaScore's For This Weekend's Openers
Yeah not sure where they spent all that $50m budget. Ross movies are generally on the higher end budget wise.

I was the only one who got FSoJ right, but was way off on the others.
Magic Mike and David were closest this week I think.

 Re: Predict The CinemaScore's For This Weekend's Openers
A B is crap for a movie as desperate to please a crowd as Resurgence.

 Re: Predict The CinemaScore's For This Weekend's Openers
The BFG is a tough one to predict. We see Disney, Spielberg, a spirited young female protagonist, a family film released in summer, etc., and we assume a very strong CinemaScore. But a lot of general moviegoers seem to find it slow and/or overly quaint. Parents might resent shelling out so much for a trip to the movies only for their children to be bored, though the response from older moviegoers attracted by Spielberg may counter this.
I definitely do not expect higher than a B (Tomorrowland) or B+ (Where the Wild Things Are).

So the BFG does surprises according to David, and Magic Mike predicted the best again.

I agree, except I am tempted to say A- for Pets.
