Indeed you cannot buy any more tickets for SF in the Wanda chain. Now they are proposing 26 viewings per day for Journey to the West in the biggest Wanda theater in Beijing for instance, a few more than for Skyfall at the release date ! PS : At t…

At least two IMAX theaters will still be playing it in the USA next Saturday, and at least 5 non IMAX too, ie : at least you can buy tickets online for these viewings :) As for Hobbit vs Skyfall in the USA, if the discrepancy in the final estimat…

Wow, week 10 of The Hobbit ends in a few days and you already have a figure :) [The figure you give is the "first 300M$ +" figure for the Hobbit, and is an estimate for today, not for the week] I feel like giving drugs to an addict, sorry !

If you don't think spectacle is that important, and that a low budget Bond would be nice to look at, with heavy focus on the script, do you mean a TV Bond series would actually be ok with you ?

To all those making projections about the future worldwide box office, here's a down-to-earth reminder. SF grossed about 200 M Euros (I mean : in the countries where Euro is used, it grossed that). So to create this worldwide $ figure, at one mom…

On this very site "Even accounting for inflation, 'Skyfall' is the highest grossing James Bond film of all time, leaving the long-term record holder 'Thunderball' for dust." Some can claim ranking is not important, I claim it is for some here (and n…

Ah, at first glance, the "definitive" 23 Bond list that is given above looks like it was computed with the $-centric method for 2011 except obviously for Skyfall (which mean you should add 2% to the rest, yes, that's how "scientific" it is !). I thi…

The "funny" thing is that on legal sites, the note of SF is 7.1 while on one of the most popular pirate sites (where DVD quality was available around the 3rd of January...), it's 7.6 (far, far, far less voters though). The "haters" are there thou…
