TGITDNMAR: (3/13/15)

Remember how last week I said March would give way to more exciting, interesting movies? Well, after Chappie and Unfinished Business opened to putrid reviews and bombed spectacularly, I’m left with the proverbial egg on my face. Or maybe the […]

TGITDNMAR: (2/20/15)

TGITDNMAR: (2/13/15)

As predicted in this very space last week, The Wachowskis’ latest, Jupiter Ascending, bombed spectacularly at the box office this weekend, grossing a shade over $18 million. That’s $18 million against a $175 million production budget. That’s, um, bad. Really […]

Taken 3 made nearly 40 million dollars this weekend, which was good for the third largest January opening of all-time. Good job, people. I’m not saying you can’t, or shouldn’t, enjoy the cheap thrills of those kinds of movies, but […]
