I won't be surprised, I think the last time and I could be wrong that Lionsgate had a legit box office hits was the Hunger Games prequel, Saw X and John Wick 4 but as for original IP.. honesty I am not sure.

 

Plus Dave Bautista also said he has high hopes that The Killer's Game will launch a franchise for him and do well for his production company so they could make indie films as well wants to prove he can be a box office draw on his own.

 

It got bad reviews and was barely marketed, much like those other two movies. Whoever thought those were good ideas were way, way off.

 

at least theatrically, i can't really think of much re: original IP. wonder how much they draw in from releasing most of A24's material on physical media here in the US

 

oh wait, Coppola is fronting the marketing costs for this, so maybe Megalopolis won't doom Lionsgate (unless you count a somewhat tarnished critical goodwill), just Coppola.

 

“Am I Racist?” made more than “Killer’s Game”. Good lord.

 

German period drama September 5, which is about ABC Sport's coverage of the 1972 Munich Olympics hostage crisis with Peter Sarsgaard playing legendary tv executive Roone Arledge been picked up by Paramount after getting major oscar buzz in the festival circuit.

 

they talked about that one on the big pic telluride episode, sounds good

 

Yeah, that was one of the more interesting movies thet discussed. Excited to see it.

Let the Sarsgaardassaince begin!

 

Did anyone else know that there was a comedy movie based Henry Hill’s life in the Witness Protection Program, and it came out one month before Goodfellas, and it was written by Nora Ephron, who at the time was married to Nick Pileggi, the screenwriter for Goodfellas

My Blue Heaven (1990 American film) - Wikipedia

 

i’ve heard about this a few times but still haven’t watched, probably should

 

this is blowing my mind, I had no clue it existed

 

Always knew about that movie but had no idea of the goodfellas connection

 

That’s so crazy. I know the trailer for that movie very well. It was attached to the Gremlins 2 VHS. Didn’t know that’s what it was about til now.

 

I thought my blue heaven was widely known? Never took the time to watch it but always knew about it.

 

same

 

Great song

 

I knew about the movie because of the TBS song

 

Woah, you mean to tell me that spending $10 a month on multiple movie tickets when a single movie ticket costs $17+ wouldn't turn a profit????
