      It helps if you’re a well known director. People don’t go and see original movies by unknown directors.

      It’s more the return on them is rough. This has some good star power and director behind it.

      Excited to see this do well.

      Only in the sense studios are too afraid to make them. It’d be so depressing if everyone ended up doing remakes and sequels forever

    I’m seeing this tomorrow night. I would prefer to watch it on IMAX 70 mm, but can’t justify paying triple the cost.
