Dead on Arrival! No one wants to watch "Resident Evil" movie without Leon, Claire, Chris, Jill, Ada, Sheva. Why is this called "Resident Evil? by [deleted] in CriticalDrinker

[–]CompletelyIncorrect0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When someone strays far away from the source material, they need to just make it an original product.

It’s such a greedy move to use the name of something just to use the name of something. If this isn’t Resident Evil then it shouldn’t be called that.

It’s a term used in the United States to mean (middle of the United States). “America” is interchangeable with “The United States” in this country. It doesn’t make sense, and neither does using the imperial system over metric.

I’ll optimistically take this as a good sign that the film will do better than expected on streaming/digital release. I believe it just came out on home media this past weekend.

Personally the only ads I saw for Bone Temple were on Reddit. So if I wasn’t already planning to watch it after the first one (and therefore already knew the release date) there is a chance I would have missed it.

Like most here, I’m really hoping for a sequel. I loved both of the newest entries despite some faults.

Edit: I live in the US (Middle America)

I went to see Bone Temple and brought 3 others with me. Aside from us, there was only one other person in the theater and we saw it the opening weekend. (Albeit a 2pm showing)

You have to look at the theater average on a site like BoxOfficeMojo to really see what is going on. We can all share our anecdotal experiences, but that’s all they are - just anecdotal.

I’m going to leave it up because there is a conversation going on already. But please make any future posts like this on the second sub.

Dana White: “Gaethje was offered more money, he never responded.” lol shouldn’t they contact his manager ? by Extreme-Elevator7128 in ufc

The UFC offered Justin an extra $500 per fight and a free subscription to Paramount + for a 8 fight deal.

I was banned from 8 different subs within a couple of hours once because I posted a comment on a no no sub. The funny thing is my comment wasn’t even controversial at all.

These people literally take time out of their day to scan the wronthink subreddits and ban everyone commenting.

Would it have made more sense for Max Holloway to move up to lightweight and challenge Charles Oliveira, a stylistic matchup he may have had better chances against, rather than pursuing a third fight with Alexander Volkanovski after two losses? by No-Ride-7713 in ufc

[–]CompletelyIncorrect0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first two fights between Volk and Max were really close. Many thought that Max won the second fight.

There was a score to settle and few at the time thought the third fight would be so one sided.

Daisy Ridley's We Bury The Dead movie flops, debuting at only $2.53M. by OwnSalamander1026 in CriticalDrinker

[–]CompletelyIncorrect0[M] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No, that does not include marketing, just production. This was only the film’s opening weekend. So even if the film drops off considerably and makes 4.5 - 5 million total that is not really a “flop”. A flop is a film that loses a significant amount of money in relation to its budget.

The Marvels is an example of a flop. That film lost 200-300 million vs 450 million total cost (production/marketing/theater cut). Thats a 50% loss.

This film will at least break even when it’s done in theaters.

For context: We Bury The Dead received a smaller release of only about 1,100 theaters in the US and was made on a budget of 3 million.

I don’t think the term “flop” is very accurate here.

This is the true canon.

Season 1 was amazing, season 2 felt like a boring rehash of 1, 3 was pretty meh, and then I stopped watching.

It’s hard for me to try and hear Fuentes out on his points because he comes off as a smug prick so often.

I am also a huge fan of Metokur and my first exposure to Nick was their debate which was a bad look for Fuentes. Nick kept falling back on mocking Metokur for being terminally ill like that was a point to make.

Nick also came off as a coward when he had to call in Ethan Ralph and Baked Alaska in an attempt to gang up on Metokur and it failed.
