Box Office Almost Perfect for Pitch Perfect 2 - CinemaNerdz - Part 133
Box Office Weekend: Almost Perfect for Pitch Perfect 2
Critical acclaim is not always everything. This weekend, the highly acclaimed fell to second against the mildly acclaimed. Pitch Perfect 2 has received a warm reception and a whopping estimated $70.3 million in its opening weekend, beating out Mad Max: Fury Road, which had an incredible critical reception but only a mild estimated $44.4 million weekend – enough to get a head start on its $150 mill...[Read More]

Box Office Weekend: Avengers: Age of Ultron Holds Second Week
It was one thing to hold major draw on a weekend with no other new releases…but it is probably no surprise that even this week’s newcomers made little headway against Avengers: Age of Ultron. Up against an estimated second week take of $77.2 million and $312.6 million in total box-office revenue, nothing else stood much of a chance…especially the poorly received Hot Pursuit. Sofia Verg...[Read More]

Box Office Weekend: Box Office Definitely Avenged
There will likely be much speculation about the fact that Avengers: Age of Ultron failed to top the original film in its opening weekend at the box office. Never mind that the latest Marvel offering still made an estimated $187.7 million at the box office and has already grossed $626.7 million worldwide, putting it in closer company to previous champ Furious 7 (which settled for third place this w...[Read More]

Box Office Weekend: Week 4 Isn’t Weak for Furious 7
Fourth time is the charm? It certainly seems to be for Furious 7, which held on to the first-place spot for a fourth week in a row. While it is now only bringing in a fraction of its opening day income (an estimated $18.3 million), it has become the highest grossing film of the franchise and a top contender for the year…although it will have stiff competition next weekend in The Avengers: Age of U...[Read More]
Interview with Alex Garland, writer/director of Ex Machina
Alex Garland’s résumé reads like a laundry list of recent sci-fi and horror cult hits, with screenplay credits including 28 Days Later (2002), Sunshine (2007), and Dredd (2012). His latest, Ex Machina, may stand to follow that same path of cult adoration – although hopefully for Garland, its box office will follow more in the footsteps of 28 Days Later than those of Dredd. The sparse, character-dr...[Read More]
