I was one of two people at Bullet Train last night. As I was leaving I heard the music for Top Gun next door and peaked inside. Full house. This thing is nothing short of a miracle.
I was hoping Bullet Train would be decent but the whole movie just looks kind of ugly. Compare it to Top Guns photography (and I'm not just talking about the aerial stuff) and it's night and day
I work at a kinoplex and Top Gun is still one of our most popular films. We regularly sell 20-40% of the theatre for Top Gun while Thor and Nope are struggling to compete.
TGM attendance this weekend was actually even higher than on the previous one. It's objectively one of the most enduring success cases in the history of cinema.
>It's objectively one of the most enduring success cases in the history of cinema.
It's got a long way to go, every Cameron film does that and lots of movies before the 70s did too
Real answer here
There are people doing repeat viewings of this movie just to “stick it to woke Hollywood” and then some who just take their family members to see it. Im a theater wagie on the weekends and have seen the same people show up 4-5 times now
you don't have to pretend to like top gun. frankly you don't even need to watch the first one because like a tv show they replay the only relevant clip from the first movie. fact is this movie is phenomenal and at least 10x better than the first one
Say what you want about the mouse but they are really good at that. If the movie sucks they move on to the next one quickly. Fricking DC and Warner Brothers are still dwelling on justice league
People who see it are so fricking moronic that they had to rewatch it to understand why come maverick not have sex with everyone and why isnt joe biden technically the bad guy even if he is???
There's zero poz in it. It feels like kind of an egotrip on Cruise's part since the whole film is about how awesome he is, but at no point did I feel condescended to, mocked or attacked and no matter how you slice it all of the dogfight footage is cool as frick. Fighter pilots are awesome. Then you sprinkle in some lightly patriotic messaging, men being heroic badasses, I loved how predictably butthole Hangman swoops in to save them. Val Kilmer's cameos were awkward, and there was a nice emotional beat near the end with the exchange "Thanks for saving my life." "It's what my father would have done.
I walked away from the film not feeling angry, insulted or belittled and thinking I might rewatch it passively just for the dogfights.
>not capeshit >attractive people >no piles of shitskins and stronk women >no hamfisted globohomosexual homosexualry
What do you know?! People like to actually be entertained and not be lectured about degeneracy and lower life forms?
I still have not seen this yet same for my friends, we tried a few times, but it's been packed and I like when the theatre is super dead so hopefully soon it will die down but pretty much every weekend since opening it's been full.
I ain't worried bout it right now.
Genuinely good blockbuster movies are rare nowadays.
Yeah it's surprising but actually good movies continue to make money after the 1st weekend
mile high club aesthetic
scientology told it's members to keep buying tickets
Amerimutts love dying for Israel. It's genetic.
what kind of jogger tier logic is this?
hes right though
you tell us, amerimutt
It's true, unfortunately. This is the thanks we get for saving them in WWII.
seethe more vatnik
>it's propaganda therefore it's not an entertaining, well made movie
Lmao I'm gonna use this one for all those pro-soviet films
You say that like there aren't plenty of good soviet/russian films.
thread
its a really good movie
Top Gun 2.
>good movie sells tickets
>"HOW?"
kys moronic homosexual.
us navy is using taxpayer money to buy empty seats
the documents are going to come out as an october surprise

the trailer for bullet train was shit but the movie was actually comfy. like a wannabe guy ritchie movie

can't bruise the cruise
The American government printing money and impoverishing it's own people so it's propaganda movie can make headlines.
>HOW?! HOW?!
have a nice day troony obsessed freak
When will this come out on bluray? I just want to watch the dogfights again
the cost of tickets are up 10% with inflation
Then it's still making over 6 gorillion dollars per day 2 months after release. When else has this happened?
James Cameron's Titanic and Avatar
normies are braindead
Chudbros…… We won
>thor beat nope
Cinemaphile btfo
>thor
it was never intended as a particularly successful movie
TGM attendance this weekend was actually even higher than on the previous one. It's objectively one of the most enduring success cases in the history of cinema.

Not any longer. That's why TGM stands out. This isn't the early 2000s.
Cameron is in the past. The market has changed completely. He probably lost his fastball.
Avatar 2 will have better legs than Top Gun
It won't. The thrill is gone, Avatar seems primitive while Top Gun Maverick is heroic. Audience's tolerance for ugliness is on the way out.
Also, it's only got one more weekend before streaming+BD so it's fricked anyway
>made about 5x its opening weekend
>Avatar made 10x
>Titanic made 20x
Kneel before the master
I'd be more interested in how Super Pets earned $7.2M
((market manipulation))

Has it occurred to you that the repeat viewers in fact enjoy the movie? Kojima watched it 4 times at least
The internet has broken your brain. Log off
This is why I've seen it at four different theaters. Gangstalkers are seething.
I don't care about Top Gun, but still better than capeshit, I guess

Nothing else to see
The true Avatar 2
Meh, not interested in seeing either of them.
I'm Maverick
being the only game in town will do that for you
>movie will never be released on 4k blu ray because it's going to stay in theaters forever
They made a movie where it doesn't feel like the creators of it hate you.
I am more surprised at Whor: Cope and Blunder still being on the list.
Contractual reasons probably. Disney itself already memoryholed it.
Say what you want about the mouse but they are really good at that. If the movie sucks they move on to the next one quickly. Fricking DC and Warner Brothers are still dwelling on justice league
They'll also shelf Waititi's SW project. Disney has peaked.
It's simple: YOU CAN'T BRUISE THE CRUISE
it's the only actual good movie in that list
Its weird how there is evidence that anything without a woke agenda is hugely profitable, yet companies refuse to make it
what does this mean?
It means it made 7.2mil in it's 12th weekend. For comparison Endgame only managed 2mil in it's 12th weekend
It actually went up from the previous week
scientology
when is the bd out? I want to watch it again with my friends
>Only 24mil to beat Black Panther
Can it make it?
It will. There will be re-released because the demand remains high, people want to experience it at the theater.
It already beat Black Panther a long time ago since no China or Russia
in the US it's 675m vs 700m for BP
it's action kino
A lot of rewatches and amazing word of mouth
uh, apparently is the only movie to hit the 1 billion this year so far, not even Jurassic World is there yet
new numbers just dropped
People who see it are so fricking moronic that they had to rewatch it to understand why come maverick not have sex with everyone and why isnt joe biden technically the bad guy even if he is???
cope and seethe mcuck
I finally watched it a few days ago.

Hopefully this will lead to a renaissance of actual movies
