Usually, HM Christmas movies get around 2 or 3 million viewers when they first air. So in fact, slightly more than the population of Nebraska (not including the dozens of reruns each movie gets during the months of Nov & Dec). ^^

Eh, honestly, given the heavy focus of NWA Powerrr on promos (which have been great) instead of work-rate or matches (which have been pretty forgettable), I’m not sure there would be much to review there. The wacky commercials, maybe.

Not really, though. “Ajusted for inflation” records are just as worthless as the unajusted ones, for numerous reasons - tickets prices, exchange rates, multiple re-releases, state of the industry, release schedules, worldwide inflation rate(s), gimmicks, entertainment landscape, and so on.

The constant need, for the media, to qualify Endgame’s all-time box-office spot with a “not adjusted for inflation”, as if to say “it doesn’t really count”, is kind of weird to me.

Unpopular opinion : Ryker/Gunner is a perfectly fine talent, and I haven’t forgotten that, when given the chance of a lengthy match, in TNA, vs the likes of Storm or Roode, he delivered.

Technically, Force Unleashed 2 had decapitations and dismemberment, once you leveled up enough (IIRC).

Also, a Venn Diagram of people who responded “YEA FUCK HHH” in response to the Cody throne sledgehammer shot and people who say “UGH VINCE STEP ASIDE AND GIVE HHH CREATIVE CONTROL OF WWE” is a perfect circle.

(Bohemian Rhapsody at least understood that showing a large chunk of the band’s Live Aid show would only endear it more to fans.)

Without spoiling too much, I’ll say that, although I really like this world and all its weird specificities, there a bit of world-building in John Wick 3 that didn’t really really work for me (the desert stuff), and came slightly too close to the Assassin’s Creed franchise.

World of Illusion ! So gorgeous, but also so short...

Just like Mania, really.

Then again, it’s underperforming everywhere overseas, so hopefully the US b.o. will somewhat help on that front.

“hostile energy”... that’s an interesting description of what I’d qualify, more often than not, as “semi-drunk overacting”. Granted, it gives her movies a somewhat different vibe, depending on her degree of mugging for the camera, but still... ^^

Melissa Joan Hart seems to be perfectly happy producing her own Christmas movies for Lifetime, where she can go as excentric as she wants to, and cast whoever she wants to as her love interest. Sadly, that also means her budgets are much lower, and her scripts are much less polished than the norm.

It’s still the only Punisher outing, Netflix series included, that managed to really capture the insanity of a man snapping and waging a literal war on crime.

Naomi Scott makes a pretty Jasmine.

Maybe it’s because I suffered through years of Jarrett’s self-serving booking in TNA, but I just hope Cody “I gave myself the centerpiece championship match on my company’s first event/PPV, and I framed my victory at something historical and über-melodramatic” Rhodes doesn’t develop the same ego...

As far as WWE’s audience demographics go, the median age of WWE viewers was 54 yo in 2017, and has been getting older by the year. So, if their main target was supposed to be pubescent boys, they’re failing spectacularly.

Moix is a cunning polemicist who thrives on provocation. Shocking people with outrageous comments & opinions is his bread and butter, and this interview came out a few days after his new book got released : the media outrage gave him plenty of free advertising, his sales got a boost, mission accomplished.
