Taking solace from quanta
Bigger Picture Research —
According to enigmax, writing for TorrentFreak, Mr Bond’s 22nd big screen outing (Quantum of Solace) leaked onto the Internet before it bowed in the US last weekend. That’s despite a massive counter-piracy campaign in the UK (where the film opened two weeks ago) involving cinema staff donning night vision goggles (supplied by Q?) to catch camcorder users in the act. This news came in the same week that Detica, a business and technology consultancy, urged the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR) ‘to shift the focus of its consultation process away from enforcement ...
Weekend Box Office: Quantum Offers Solace to Many
At The Movies - Film News and Reviews —
Run, Mr. Bond! The next Quantum of Solace showing is nearly sold out!
Okay, there never was a question that Quantum of Solace was going to win this weekend’s box office–it was just about how much it would make. And the answer is…a lot, as in an estimated $70.4 million. That’s 74% more than its predecessor, Casino Royale, made in its US opening; in fact, it’s a record for a Bond film debut.
Of course, Casino was a film that continued to grow on strong word of mouth, and its positive reception and revival of the franchise contributed mightily to Quantum’s ...
007 Makes $70.4 Million. Trade Roughage 11/17/08
SpoutBlog —
Despite critical disappointment with the latest Bond installment, Quantum of Solace had the franchise’s best opening ever, by a lot. The previous installment, Casino Royale, debuted with only $40.8 million, and Bond’s former best opener, Die Another Day, debuted with $47 million. Quantum’s take was $70.4 million, which was unfortunately $400,000 too high for a really good headline. As for the other significant UK/USA co-production, Slumdog Millionaire earned a smashing weekend per-screen average of $35,000 and has grossed $418,000 since Wednesday. ...
Oscar Watch: The Wrestler
Thompson On Hollywood —
... As well as things are going for Slumdog Millionaire, which opened well and is heading into strong Oscar contention, Fox Searchlight has its work cut out on marketing its Toronto-fest pickup The Wrestler, which stars the one-and-only Mickey Rourke in a tour-de-force performance. A hit on the fall fest circuit, Darren Aronofsky's low-budget drama features intense fight scenes that are a tad too violent for some viewers. And Rourke is giving one ...
