On the other hand, this has been a weak month for movies. March is usually strong enough (not enough for the big boys of May-early July) for films, and nothing's really doing all that well anyway. I only hope at least Peabody and Sherman is deemed successful enough that Dreamworks licenses out...

But then the movie would be like 10 minutes long.

I really don't want to be hating on Ape, but really. One comic a year... and the second issue gets indefinite delays (it's almost a month overdue already). Meanwhile, every other indie comic label, not without minor delays, manages to get the rest of the issues in regularly. Worst case was...

No... it wasn't a love hate thing... it was a love, slightly disappointed so it's the worst thing ever situation. I hate when people don't know the distinction between "disappointment" and "actually a terrible film." The hype machine was there, but the audience just wasn't energized to see a...

Saying the show is lacking in quality for the lack of older skits which you can find, like... virtually everywhere else anyway just doesn't make sense. If it's an actual basis of show and the quality of the actual content, that's a logical debate. Even if SW did its darndest to hide classic...

And the thing is long. Just...long. It's funny in short, selected idiocy...but trying to watch any more of it is incredibly painful. I LOVE the Hamburger scene(as you can tell). But it makes me glad that they didn't ruin any other Marvel characters... well... until they decided recently to...

Okay... someone... can we please take the "not available Stateside" comment out of the title finally? This has been available Stateside for quite some time. And YAY to the Marvin Suggs thing.

What about Piggy's fantasy babies that looked exactly like pallet swapped Baby Kermit and Baby Piggy? This film even did fanservice better.

I'd also tend to think Lego sucked them out dry as well (as it should). It really seems March hasn't been that big for openings. But then you look at 300, Need for Speed... those things are losing money faster for being higher budget. The bright spot is, it managed to open at second in a...

I've noticed that with every kid's movie based on a nostalgic property, they always have Mary Sue/Gary Stu type characters for...uh...reasons? Seems they did that slightly ironically with a nudge that it's supposed to be a commentary on that. But the fact that some critics panned the movie for...

The inclusion of other arcade characters was nice, but it was not the focus of the film. For what it's worth, the video game companies hammered down some harsh regulations of what could and couldn't be done. That may have a huge role to play in it as well. And Capcom yanked Dr. Wily's cameo...

Cold blooded, nasty reviews I can take. If they hate a movie on the merits of it being a bad movie in all aspects, then it's a fair review. The negative reviews were amateurish. Only one negative review even bothered to compare it with other Muppet Movies. And at least I can respect that...

I just don't know why Sunday's don't count. There's some real bullcrap to that. Call the freaking gross on a freaking Monday morning. I'm sure that it at least was closer to 20 million on the full Sunday. I swear I remember hearing of a movie that opened third counting only Friday and...

Again, that's what was reported Sunday Morning. See? This is WHY I hate these Box Office reports. If you see the movie Sunday, it doesn't count for some reason.

Cough cough. Made more than the 2 DW films that came after it in a short time. A sequel and TV series was announced the second it hit the weekend BO. If this did manage to at least get to 20 Mil opening, would that count for something? It was reported at 16 mil by noon Yesterday. If...

The heart of the last film would have only worked in the last film. GMC didn't have the same heart as TMM, and it was a great movie for being itself. TMM had several scenes of Kermit breaking down and doubting himself (as did TM). GMC's heart was internal Kermit/Piggy stuff. That said...

I'll say this: It isn't the pop culture jokes in VMX that make it dated, it's how they used them. Again, that style is more akin to Scary Movie (when people actually liked it) and early Family Guy. Rapid fire, non-stop parody. Now, that's very much early 00's humor, which came to a crashing...

But it made back most of it's budget to be a modest success, opening at 45 mil and closing at 88 mil in the US. Of course, the real difference is it was during a Holiday weekend that started on Wednesday, so it was able to get 2 more days worth of Weekend count, and availability. Of course...

I'm calling it. Link is missing no longer!' Why a Jim Henson originated character has more screentime in a movie made after he died is... well... it's indescribable is what. Multiple scenes? Multiple lines? That whole QVC thing? Link is back, man. Heck, the Chef didn't get as much screen...

Like I said before, the reviews were baffling. Just... really...like they wanted to see a Jason Segal movie with the Muppets in it and cursed the film for being a slight disappointment on a level of not being the same exact tone of the last movie (while oddly not praising the better quality in...
