CAN'T BLOWJI THAT EMOJI

>The Emoji Movie won Friday with $10M to Dunkirk‘s $7.9M. Here’s what’s fascinating about the animated movie: Close to nobody likes it, including critics (6% Rotten) and Friday night audiences (B CinemaScore), and yet here’s Sony opening this $50M-budgeted family movie at a respectful level.
>>
Of course the fedora-tipping redditors who manage rotten tomatoes can’t grasp multi-layered ironic satire when they see it. I just watched it and I was literally in shock by how one thing can be so kíno. It wasn’t meant to be a comedy; it wasn’t meant to be a kids movie. It was supposed to be watched as an allegory for the modern world’s blind acceptance of anything that’s presented as being cool just for its own sake. The very act of watching the movie was it telling you “See? You like to use emojis everyday and so does everyone around you so you have to watch this because you’re part of the grotesque machine that is modern pop culture”. The screen was laughing at me and I enjoyed every moment of it. Of course Reddictor McAtheists won’t ever understand that, their small “le epic upboat XD” brains could never allow them to pull their heads out of their asses and really appreciate the art that is Le Filmé Emojie. Fuck reddit, man. The movie was great.

Anything below B+ is bad on Cinemascore. As it just ranks people who wanted to go see it in the first place.

50M was bullshit I think that was including marketing because they didn't want it to sound cheap, plus they got insane money from Facebook, Dropbox, and other things, its going to make a profit lol what a world.

Meanwhile Dunkirk is almost certainly losing money unless nominated for Oscars.

If there's ever a Boy's Club movie, it will only have the original characters.

Seriously, why not try making a Meme Movie? There are 10+ years of untapped old ass memes that really haven't had any representation in the greater culture.

First we do a Wreck It Ralph thing where an Old Tired Meme finds new life in saving the planet from well It could start where the bad guys are the All Your Base aliens and go from there.

They'd have a joke where after they said 'all your base are belong to us' there would be a black dude saying 'hide your kids, hide your wife, they are belonging everyones bases up here!!!' then go on to the next meme and next meme.

The memes all become characters in of themselves and aid the hero against the Zero Wing enemies and its all very postmodern and it doesn't even need to be stronger than a PG-13, could actually be a legit hit movie.

Dunkirk is expected to be a nicely profitable movie. It made 72 million in its first week and has a drop under 50%. At this point it looking like it will clear 250 million domestic, which will pay for the production and part of the promotion just on domestic sales.
>>
>>85612021
Part of it is bots yes but it's fucking scary how many are legit.

Not really imo. Ready Player One is a nothing more than a hodgepodge of references to "nerd" culture. I'm not kidding when I say 90% of the book is just a recitation of references that are not particularly esoteric or "deep cuts", but draw from the incredibly broad and shallow pool of "nerdom".
>>
>$10M

Betting it barely squeaks past $50M on the third weekend. Sony will claim it was a roaring success anyway and swear they've got sequels planned for days. Meanwhile angry Japanese businessmen will be swearing at baka gaijin in conference calls.
>>
>>85609307
They already have a show...it's called Rick and Morty
>>
>>85609295
Good, I'm glad Hollywood is waking up to the fact that 300 million dollar blockbusters are a waste of everyone's time and totally unnecessary to boot. Tickets are still going to cost 12 dollars, and everyone is still going to the movies, so stop making these ugly leviathans.
>>
>>85615938
The issue is this

you are going to have to spend 20-50 million to get people to go to the movie.

Do you really want to spend 20 million advertising for a movie that costs 2 million?
>>
>>85614647

>It will clear 250 million!!!

>let me link this article that says this!!
>Don’t be surprised if the final number ends up in the $175 million-$200 million range.
>>
>>85615521
No. It's entirely reliant on references and appealing to geek culture. That is the actual definition of Reddit according to /tv/'s consensus. By it's definition Ready Player One will be the most Reddit movie ever made.

>>85609371
It's a shame that he went crazy because Hillary was too much of a megalomaniac to blame herself for anything in the election that didn't go her way and thus had to go and start harping on his creation to the point where her MSM lackeys and (((groups))) like the ADL followed suit.

the audiobook was read by Will Weaton, who is the in-universe president of le internets.

As much as I enjoyed the randomness of Acererak playing Joust with the main guy, the book really isn't more then random references.

Hopefully it won't stay true to the book and be a good movie.
>>
>>85608895
audience scores are more like "I got what I expected" (they are going to the movie based on the ads)
Hence why something like The VVitch gets a bad review because the ads made it look like a teen horror like conjuring but set in pre-historic New England.
if a movie is awful but its what the audience expects they'll give it a B

Mojo are retarded with the shit they use to estimate box office.

I don't browse Reddit. Most people don't browse Reddit.
Reddit is terribly designed site that is very off putting and overly complicated.
4chan is much more user accessable than Reddit is even with it's hated of newfags. You can literally just open the page and post. Meanwhile you have to jump through hoops to post on Reddit like logging in etc.
