Popular Post Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted January 9, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2016 I want an isolated score track, a commentary track exclusively for the music with Abrams, Williams, and Mike Matessino, and an 10 page essay from everybody involved in the movie about the use of the score and its themes throughout the film. leeallen01, crumbs and DarthDementous 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarpia 132 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I would love a full fledged documentary about the music, with interviews and footage of the recording sessions. Those little featurettes we usually get always leave me wanting for more. As Abrams has stated his John Williams fandom so openly, I really hope he insists on a more fleshed out documentary.

Jay 37,346 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Well when The Revenant made more money than TFA on Friday in the US it was predicted that Revenant would win the weekend, finally removing TFA from first place at the domestic box office. But it didn't and TFA won the weekend, and has now made $812 million in the US. Crazy. It also just passed Jurassic World to become the #3 movie of all time worldwide http://www.ew.com/article/2016/01/10/box-office-report-star-wars-force-awakens-the-revenant-the-forest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I will find out! I asked Peio. While cinema tickets are roughly the same price as in the US or Europe if you buy them from the box office. Most Chinese tend to buy them via apps at greatly reduced prices. But it strongly depends on the region or cinema chain as well. I asked Peio. While cinema tickets are roughly the same price as in the US or Europe if you buy them from the box office.

Jay 37,346 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Interesting that Star Wars has beaten Avatar in the US, and is tracking to beat it in the UK and China, but in every other country, its tracking to not overcome Avatar's take.

Dixon Hill 4,234 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 On 1/9/2016 at 7:23 PM, Sharky said: The film worships at the altar of Stanley Kubrick, without understanding the convictions, wit and deeply moral sensibility behind the master's pre-Shining work. Like David Fincher, Jonathan Glazer and Thomas Vinterberg before him, Alex Garland appropriates the aesthetics and misanthropy of late Kubrick. A hipster's vanity project (a case of "look how sophisticated I am with my coolly objective steadicam, cynical use of pop songs and probing wide angle lenses"), nothing more than that. Oscar Isaac and Alicia Vikander do the best with what they've got, but Domnall Gleeson makes for a dull protagonist. I don't know whether it's the attempt at a generic American accent or the director's fault, but he's not convincing. The Force Awakens is a long way from a masterpiece, but it never pretends to be one. Well fucking said, though I'd grant Fincher and Glazer passes for managing to forge their own perspective rather than just superficially aping Kubrick's.

Romão 2,274 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 It's worth noting that while Avatar was a worldwide phenomenon not likely to be replicated any time soon, it did benefit from a tremounds 3d share and a much more favorable exchange rate than TFA.
