Krypt-OOO-Nite!! posted:Saw the movie yesterday it's alright apart from if there's anything to dislike then it's that it seems to trying to riff on the Marvel formula complete with a weak third act yeah you can't blame a studio for trying to cargo cult marvel's success, it's like 10 years ago when World of Warcraft became a monster and every game studio shat out an MMO in response of course they all failed but DC/Sony/et al will learn this lesson the hard way

Pvt.Scott posted:Why even make films for the US any longer though? bingo if I'm a Sony shareholder and I know they can get 10:1 ROI in China versus 1:1 domestic, why am I not screaming blue murder about how they're spending $150m+ per project? same thing happened in Vegas which is why you won't see any more $2b+ megacasinos; Adelson/Wynn/et al get 5-7x ROI on aircraft hangars full of baccarat tables in Macau

Good lord, she doesn't deserve any of this. if you don't believe her PR/Sony was working with Twitter on this to remove GB critics and other undesirables from the platform, well then I bet you think the army tried to stage a coup in Turkey

loquacius posted:Yeah Sony is really trying new things w/r/t Internet-age marketing, they tried exploiting international relations for The Interview and they tried carefully tending and curating an outrage garden for GB2016, and honestly both marketing campaigns worked really well, they just forgot to make the movies actually worth seeing those campaigns generated a lot of buzz that translated into big losses, so I'm not sure they could be considered to have "worked really well"
