  1. Wonder Woman should pass the 300 million mark this Friday, going by how it looks now and projecting likely earnings for Wednesday and Thursday.
  2. So did Alyssa Arcé in all likelihood, which almost ruined her for me. Almost.
  3. I have cleaned up some posts. Animated discussions are fine, just do not descend into a borderline flame war. - SympathysSilhouette
  4. I find it odd you so object to that statement? So attractive women prefer to spend their time with equally attractive men? Wow, what a strange concept! I applaud Toni Garrn for being honest, though I'm guessing if it is true that she said that when she was a teenager, she has since been forced to become more diplomatic. I will never understand why people react so badly whenever models are honest about this stuff.
  5. Interestingly, it looks like "Wonder Woman" will have very strong third weekend numbers. Stronger than "Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 2". Which means that whilst Patty Jenkins and Gal Gadot might still not overtake James Gunn's movie at the domestic U.S. box office, they could get much closer than most people would have given them credit for.
  6. She's a dreamboat!
  7. His policies seem to boil down to just doing the opposite of what Obama did.
  8. It's understandable but also a bit naive. She must have known that in 2017, such images would go beyond the calender itself.
  9. This is an internet forum, by that reasoning, no one should ever reply to anyone else's posts. So what is the point?
  10. Well to be fair, I already thought that Wonder Woman was one of the few good things about "Batman vs. Superman". So in that respect, the fact that she would be one of the draws for "Justice League" isn't a huge surprise, even without "Wonder Woman" the standalone film's success. So now it's official: "Wonder Woman" is the third highest grossing film of 2017 on the U.S. domestic market. The movie is unlikely to overtake "Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 2" in second place in the U.S. domestic box office take ranking for 2017, unless it turns out to be a rare slow burner that keeps on raking in the money many weeks past its debut.
  11. Funny how things changed, the GOP loved him back in November when he essentially swung the election Trump's way.
  12. I am aware that Corbyn faced unprecedented hostility from the right-wing rags. My point wasn't that this wasn't a huge failure for the Tories, rather, it was a huge failure for the Tories but Labour still failed to get back into power. So whilst for the Tories this is a sort of victory that feels like a defeat, for Labour this is a defeat that feels like a victory. But the end result is still them as the opposition party (albeit with more seats than they had before the election).
  13. Sweet mercy, this pair!
  14. Other movies that have a chance to overtake Wonder Woman, besides the Star Wars behemoth "The Last Jedi": Spider-man: Homecoming (Very good chance) Dunkirk (though I don't believe that it will) It (an outside chance) Blade Runner 2049 (could really go either way) Justice League (impossible to predict) Thor: Ragnarok (I could see it challenge "Wonder Woman" if the reviews are at all good) Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (impossible to predict) Even if half of the above exceed the result that "Wonder Woman" got at the box office, it would still end up in the top ten for 2017 (at the domestic box office).
  15. I hope that if this does lead to more female super hero movies (which would be great) they take care to consider the lessons of what Patty Jenkins did with this one. She is praised for avoiding the male gaze almost entirely, which is something that isn't likely to happen if it's a dude at the helm of the film.
  16. "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" is a 2017 release, so obviously that one will.
  17. C'est préférable à un "champagne connard" comme Trump.
  18. The Sessions hearing was odd, especially the moments in which he seemed to be invoking executive privilege by proxy...
  19. Her tush is adorable.
  20. It looks likely that Wonder Woman will be the third biggest grossing picture of the year (on the U.S. domestic market) once the Tuesday and Wednesday's box office takes are added to the total. It will then move ahead of "Logan", which is probably something not a lot of experts would have dared predict. Though it does look unlikely it will overtake "Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2" at the n°2 spot.
  21. Wow, that is a better SI shot than a lot of the ones that made the magazine.
  22. Has she lost weight? Her arms especially seem a lot thinner than I remember them being.
