Guardians of the Galaxy was released 10 months before Jurassic World. Before that he was best known for Parks and Rec. He absolutely was not cast as a huge star. He was definitely miscast though, and leaning hard on his typical character style in Fallen Kingdom isn't something I'm a huge fan of.
Yes, I had erased my "happy coincidence" line regarding him being in world, but just the impact and expectation when seeing him changes the perception. Though I actually quite liked his character and more serious side.
Just bought tickets for me and my 8 year old. Guess we're having a talk.
There is some slimy tongue action in the film with Owen, though.
Still no idea whats the deal is with avoinding the classic theme so much.
??? the classic theme pops up in JW1 like... 40 times lol
Agree, don't think i'd care near as much about the series if it never had characters like Dr Grant or Malcolm.
Yeah, its starts playing and stops before the memorable part comes. The two seconds in the beginning of the track do not count as the theme popping up.
Cant remember a single track of Rogue One. I just remember that he fucked up doing what the music is supposed to do when certain things happen (This is Star Wars, when a imperial Star Destroyer jumps out of hyperspace, you have to do a variation of the march). And I dont think that because every other componists in a Marvel movie is bland its ok that he is also bland in these one.
The MCU has the likes of Silvestri and Djawadi and they definitely weren't turning in their most memorable scores either. It's absolutely in line with how they are produced and directed, and Marvel's "music problem" is something that's been written about plenty enough. They just aren't projects that give their composers a whole lot to work with. Even then, I'd say the main themes of Strange and Spider-Man are still solid, particularly amongst the franchise as a while.
*checks*
Maybe that would kick Universal into gear to make some changes...
I wanna say yes, but unless this does catastrophically bad in the domestic market (since international looks like a lock for solid numbers), I doubt it.
International, or are the domestic projections plummeting? Haven't seen them posted in Box Office Era.
Ah, yeah I remember that number, thought you were pointing at it being even lower than that. It's a pretty sizeable drop, but not really anything too terrible in isolation. But then the legs are probably gonna be godawful, so there's no point in taking it in isolation anyway, lol.
At this point I'd say just use the main OT, and we can change the title to "open spoilers".
They weren't expecting growth, were they?
Jurassic World already was, lol.
Dang it, this isn't in my area. Are you outside of NA? Had my wife pick up McD's and got Incredibles 2 toys. Now that's in my belly as I get ready to see JWFK in theaters.... x.x
