gee whiz, what is this snake pregnant with? it must be an elephant for them four to be satisfied with the size of the screen.
Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 10/5
That question is answered in a different "documentary" which can only be seen in underground cinemas that are very dingy.

The Numbers has Butter earning $73,000 for an $811 PTA. Can that be right? If it is, that's brutal!!

Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 10/5
Yikes, surely that is a mistake. Glad I avoided everything bar Taken for this weekend, and with an awesome hold from Hotel Transylvania hopefully my August leagues should do well, gotta hold on to the Regulars Ultimate position after falling to second in the last weekend of the July leagues. Still never won an Ultimate league, someone always seems to pop up out of nowhere. Hopefully this one will finally pay off, though I'm fed up of getting my hopes up...

Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 10/5
Well, I currently have you still in first place after this weekend's estimates were plugged in, surfer. But now that TwtC is out of the Top 5, you only have Hotel Transylvania still producing for you. From there, it's just a waiting game to see if anyone else can catch you.
Not surprisingly, the three people on top are the three people with all eight movies out: surfer, Brockster and Fixus. The person in fourth place is 25.5 pts back. It's possible, but I won't make the mistake of pronouncing the winner, of course.

Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 10/5
Well I'm pretty sure Taken 2 has just set a new record for best opening weekend for a French film EVER, although one will certainly argue, with a clear point, that no one who saw the film this weekend actually realized they saw a French film...

Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 10/5
Ooooh but do not think I take any pride in Taken 2 being French, Tranny, let me reassure you on this
I'm just amused by its total absence of "Frenchness", if you know what I mean. But you're right, I haven't seen it, and I'd be surprised if I end up seeing it. That would take my girlfriend to force me to, but apparently she's not keen on seeing it either, so I can go see the Chinese film about a provincial brothel tonight

Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 10/5
V/H/S gets 3 PTA in OCT leagues, right? Assuming it beat Butter, I mean.
Tenet: Criterion Edition. Now with more Backwards Man.
Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 10/5
I think it gets 2 points, W. It's behind Taken 2, The Paperboy and Frankenweenie. And, of course, only October films are considered in this scenario.
