Ben-Hur(ting bad)

lol, i guess part of that 100 million was budgeted for forum shilling

So how much do you haters get, because you all are certainly putting a lot of effort into discussing a movie you say you'll never watch.

This is relevant to my interests, if it gets me paid, I'll get a full rage-on for it. I'll rage so hard.

So hard.

If you get paid, let me know. I too, can use the extra cash.

So, after two weekends (and the weekdays in-between), this movie still hasn't hit the $20 million mark. Ouch. That's on a $100 million budget.

In contrast, by the end of the third weekend, Sausage Party hit $65 million, and that one had a budget of just $19 million.

THIS JUST IN - CRITICS DON'T LIKE NEW MOVIE. MORE AT 11.

This sounds basically just like every new movie score to come out in the past decade other than a handful.

Not saying the movie looks good or anything, but this is the norm now a days. The exception is when there are good scores.

What? There are lots and lots of good review scores for recent movies out there... for other movies. For example, see Sausage Party (mentioned above) or Don't Breathe or Star Trek: Beyond or Jungle Book or Captain Fantastic, etc.

Or were you actually talking about the music?

I'm gonna be honest: I barely watched the trailer, read a couple reviews and the only good thing this film is doing for me is getting into the mood to see the original Ben Hur.
Don't even ask me why, I myself can't believe I haven't seen it yet...
