@3ChainsOGold @GlobalBoxOffice TOTAL run in Japan will probably be something like 50-60 million. Yen is not very strong right now.

[Tero Heikkinen @Tepi76]

@KofiDarkKnight @GlobalBoxOffice 930m by the end of this week maybe.

@C5Lang @ExtantBuffalo @Nathanswfc2004 You said '(Europeans) are afraid of 70 degrees and above'.

96% of the planet uses Celsius (incl. Europe).

@NickNenimous @Nathanswfc2004 It's more about the gear. Players don't get hurt sliding in the mud.

They do cancel baseball and even have a name for it. Rainout.

@C5Lang @ExtantBuffalo @Nathanswfc2004 Tbf, that's more than 150F outside USA. Even Finns would not enjoy sauna that hot.

@harito921 @Quarktoro1 @DannyDrinksWine This is true. Funny how Tarantino forgot to mention that. He knows Japanese cinema so well.

@Mangemongen @vanhanenist This is how you insult 300.000 Swedish-speaking Finns.

By that same logic, my cousins born in Sweden to a Finnish-speaking family are not Swedes at all...? They just have a Swedish passport and they are not citizens of Finland. It goes only one way?

@AttKnight87 @zakfilm Parodies can be funny. Absolutely. ZAZ-team were often successful and Airplane! is probably the funniest movie ever made.

They even gave Scary Movie series a much needed boost in Part 3. The first and third are the funniest.

[Tero Heikkinen @Tepi76]

@AttKnight87 @zakfilm Scream is a satire. Scary Movie is a parody.

[Tero Heikkinen @Tepi76]

@AttKnight87 @zakfilm That the first Scream probably delivers more laughs than the entire Scary Movie series combined.

Scream sequels are different, because they went parodying their own series so heavily. Meta is funny to a certain point. The most recent Deadpool killed itself for overdoing it.

@NextBestPicture There was a time when comedies rarely won. Academy of today is more open to that idea and I like it. A good winner.

@AttKnight87 @zakfilm

[Tero Heikkinen @Tepi76]

@AttKnight87 @zakfilm They are comedies first, horror second. The 1996 movie at least.

[Tero Heikkinen @Tepi76]

@taptanium @NoContextHumans Disabled could get it for free anyway.

[Tero Heikkinen @Tepi76]

@therlwrites It was Halloween. I was 6.

[Tero Heikkinen @Tepi76]

The new Scary Movie is said to be terribly unfunny. I know that the trailer had zero jokes that landed.

Needed five writers, so that's not even one joke each.

@noahgittell It's an American thing. Money over art. In other countries they count admissions.

@Luiz_Fernando_J The Passion of the Christ is not a biopic.
