Some dude mentioned on AICN that the tides had turned, and that movie studios had listened to audiences. Why? Because so many of the movies making money in December had such good Tomatometer scores.

Didn't The Nut Job make a small fortune and get a sequel greenlighted in 10 seconds flat?

Hmmm. I just saw "The Invisible Woman," directed by and starring Ralph Fiennes, which just opened at my local art theater. 78% on the Tomatometer. I guess you guys are going to the wrong theaters.

Pfft. Everybody knows that movies with C grades are the pits. Nobody wants average. People want great, or they want terrible. Average is an insult.
December and January are two of the best months for movies--as long as you keep away from all those drawn-out, time-hopping art house dramas. Go great or go terrible. Don't go in between.
They don't sell beers at art theaters because they're progressive. They sell them to help you deal with the dullness of the movies they show.

Can he say Ralph properly yet?

He pronounces it the old way.
"Ralph" is one of those words whose spelling came to influence people's pronunciation--like with "zoology," but not.
