Im debating on seeing this or Pacific Rim 2 since there a week apart -- nm - eag Feb 22, 21:21
Back when I played HSX I’d have said it’s a sci-fi movie that’s got a March release date. SHORT! But the world doesn’t work that way anymore. -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 21:00
I enjoyed the book. It was a simple story told with lots of references to stuff I grew up with. But it was not a great book. I think it'll make a - TWuG - Fly, Falcon, Fly! Feb 22, 20:51
I can't wait for it. It's chock full of my whole childhood. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 22, 20:34
I'm rather enthused about it. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 22, 20:27

The book is phenomenal. But the trailers have been embarrassing. - Jovian Feb 22, 20:02 12
- heh. I saw that in the theater. - Spawn Feb 22, 21:14
- You only said 1941 because you forgot Hook, A.I., The BFG, Crystal Skull, Tin Tin, War Horse... - Mop Feb 22, 21:00 10
  - I know you're lazily trolling, but Tin Tin is a masterpiece. - David Feb 22, 21:06 9
    - It was an excellent film. Even better than Tin Cup. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 21:54
    - It's the third best Indiana Jones movie. -- nm - Ender Feb 22, 21:30 2
      - Raiders, Crusade, Tintin? I'll allow it. - Beryllium Feb 23, 00:20
      - The Phantom Menace is the third best prequel. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 21:48
    - Imagine my trolling if I used my *whole* ass! -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 21:17
    - Heck, I liked Tintin, but that domestic box office was disasterous. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 21:13 3
      - Meh. $374 million against a $135 million budget is a performance most studios would happily take. - David Feb 22, 21:15 2
        
        3x budget is usually break even so, yeah, it’s in the black... if you believe $135 million. -- nm - Mop Feb 22, 21:17 1
        
        2x is breakeven, although having a better domestic split helps. You should have stopped one film earlier for that bit. -- nm - David Feb 22, 21:19
right now it is on my wait for HBO to show it list. -- nm - peglegpete Feb 22, 20:02
I'm less impressed by the commercials than the first trailer, and that was a particularly low bar. -- nm - mafic Feb 22, 19:53 1
- the commercial is basically just an expanded first trailer. very disappointing. -- nm - Jovian Feb 22, 20:03
We're planning on seeing it in Vegas. Wonder if the first week of release will change our minds :/ -- nm - Meg Feb 22, 19:51 1
- Seems like Vegas would be the perfect place to see it. Fake City Fake Movie! -- nm - Qale Feb 22, 21:01
The commercials make it look horrible. I've heard wonderful things about the book, but yikes. -- nm - Diva Feb 22, 19:43 1
- agreed -- nm - mud Feb 22, 19:46
Yeah I’m not sure what I would think if I had never read the book. - Volnelk Feb 22, 19:39 1
- I've read the book. I still don't know what they're thinking. -- nm - windows jones Feb 22, 19:58
